Sha’Carri Richardson, Noah Lyles, and Others Continue to Be Disappointed After Another Serious Miss
This season has been a rollercoaster for Sha’Carri Richardson. After settling for a second-place finish in the 100m finals in Paris, the sprinter redeemed herself in the 4x100m relay, clinching her maiden gold. However, after an unsuccessful attempt at the Diamond League finals in Brussels, the sprinter faced another miss. How so, you might ask?
Sports Illustrated has just revealed its second annual list of the 50 most influential figures and driving forces in sports. Factors like leadership, style, success, and more are considered during the process. In a list that is chock-a-block with influential titans from all across the world, the who’s who, from icons and athletes to executives and
dealmakers, have all been featured in four categories. But, much to the track and field fans’ dismay, even after boasting supreme athletic prowess in this year’s events, it doesn’t feature any athletes like Richardson, Noah Lyles, and others.
Take Lyles, for instance. He did the unthinkable by clinching the 100m Olympic title amid a thunderous cheer at Stade de France. This might lead one to wonder… Could this have been a faux pas?
