Who is Richardson's boyfriend
Former men's 100m world champion Christian Coleman has been rumoured to be Richardson's boyfriend, but neither has confirmed their relationship.
Coleman missed out on USA's 100m team but will be part of the 4x100m relay in the coming week.
Meanwhile, Richardson is the favourite to win the women's 100m, especially since her closest challenger, Shericka Jackson of Jamaica, pulled out.
“In the past three years, I’ve grown a better understanding of myself, a deeper respect and appreciation for my gift that I have in the sport, as well as my responsibility to the people that believe in me and support me,” she said via The Guardian.
The American missed the 2021 Tokyo Olympics after failing a test. She will come up against two-time gold medalist Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce and African record holder, Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith, per World Athletics.
