Sha’Carri Richardson’s attempt to win the 100-meter gold medal at the World Championships was abruptly halted when she failed to advance past the first round of the competition at the US trials.
The outspoken sprint phenom finished fifth in 11.31 seconds, 23rd fastest overall, and will now look to the weekend’s 200m for another opportunity to make the US team. She was slow out of the blocks and never a factor in her heat.

She will need a place in the top three to qualify for the World Championships, which will take place in Eugene, Oregon, on the same Hayward Field track, in July.
