Sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson will be one of the athletes to watch as Team USA launches its bid to dominate the World Athletics Championships Budapest 2023. It is set to be held in the Hungarian capital from August 19-27.

The star-studded contingent will have 139 athletes who will be keen to outshine last edition's performances that saw the American team winning 33 medals, 13 of which were gold.

Crucial to the United States' gold medal quest is the 23-year-old Dallas-born Sha'Carri Richardson, one of the 45 debutants in the team.

Richardson missed the Tokyo Olympics 2021 due to cannabis usage. She tasted further disappointment last year when she failed to qualify for the 2022 World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon.

However, she has bounced back in sterling fashion this season, winning the Doha Diamond League, the Silesia Diamond League and the USA Championships in 100m, among others.

At Silesia, she edged the fastest woman this year, Shericka Jackson, to claim the gold.

Having qualified for the World Athletics Championships for the first time, Richardson will thus be America's best bet to end Jamaica's stranglehold in women's 100m and 200m.
