ATHLETICS Noah Lyles and Sha'Carri Richardson learn schedules and venue for Olympic trials
The Americans will have to go back to training as soon as they can as they prepare for the Olympic trials.
The Jamaican duo of Shericka Jackson and Shelly-Anne Fraser-Pryce finished second and third respectively.
During an interview with the Prefontaine Classic race organisers, she noted that there is no such thing as 'perfect' and all her fans should watch her as she plans to execute a much better race going forward.
“No…there is never anything like a perfect run,” she said.
When asked about what she would work on to make sure she runs faster, she added: “You’ll watch and see.”
The American has had a glamorous season, bagging wins in the Diamond League Meetings and only losing the 100m twice.
She finished second at the Gyulai István Memorial, a Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix, and proceeded to finish fourth at the Prefontaine Classic, the final Diamond League Meeting.
