She made her outdoor season debut at the Razorback Invitational followed by an appearance in Grand Slam Track where she won the bronze medal in the 400mH and a silver medal in the 400m.

She then competed in her first heptathlon event since the Paris Olympics at the Hypomeeting Götzis and went on to register the second highest score in history which stands behind the record set by the legendary athlete Jackie Joyner-Kersee.

Furthermore, she quoted a Bible Verse in her caption:

“i sought the Lord and He delivered me from all my fears. those who look to Him are radiant and their faces are never covered in shame - psalm 34:4-5."
