At a press conference in Eugene, Oregon, where she is preparing for the 2023 Diamond League final, Richardson praised her rivals, including Jamaican stars Shericka Jackson and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. She credited her own personality and vibe for fostering a positive atmosphere among the sprinters (via Track & Field Gazette).

"I have enjoyed creating a sisterhood that a lot of people thought was impossible. No matter what nobody says, my domino and my vibe have helped create that. No matter what the media may say or the stunt they might want to portray. I love sisterhood; I love winning."

Richardson will have another opportunity to prove herself as one of the world's top sprinters. She will compete against Jackson and Fraser-Pryce in the 100-meter final at the Diamond League meeting on Saturday. The race is expected to be an exciting showdown among the year's three fastest women.

"If you all know, I don't know. It makes me excited to see all those things at the end of the day, knowing that we may have the utmost respect for each other. When we get in line, we also know that we want to come out first, no matter what."
