Within a month following her debut Olympic glory in Paris, Sha'Carri Richardson is all set to amaze the fans at the 2024 Zurich Diamond League. She will return to compete in the 100m at the near century-old Letzigrund Stadium Zurich on Wednesday, September 5, 2024.

Richardson will reunite with Julien Alfred, Daryll Neita, Tia Clayton, Kambudji Mujinga, and Marie Josee Ta Lou-Smith, her recent Olympics' 100m final competitors, to face them again in a thrilling new competition.

At the Stade de France track, the Saint Lucian sprinter Alfred claimed her nation's first historic Olympic gold medal with an impressive time of 10.72 seconds. She was followed by America's favorite Richardson with 10.87 seconds. The Paris Olympics 100m finalists, including Daryll who clocked 10.96 seconds, Mujinga (10.99 seconds), Clayton (11.04 seconds), and Ta Lou-Smith (13.84 seconds) will lock horns with Richardson on the weekend.

Apart from her silver medal victory at the French capital, Richardson also clinched a gold medal in the women's 4x100m relay race along with Melissa Jefferson, Gabyy Thomas, and Twanisha Terry. Richardson recorded the fastest anchor leg, leading the team to the top place on the podium with 10.09 seconds.

The American squad won the women's 4x100m relay after posting 41.78 to surpass the British and German squads, who listed 41.85 and 41.97 seconds, respectively.
