00:00 "Shakari Richardson is not bad, she's better."
00:03 Those were the words of the US sprinter
00:05 after she won the 100 meters at the World Championships,
00:08 besting her Jamaican counterparts
00:09 to claim the title of fastest woman in the world.
00:12 This of course comes after a tumultuous couple years
00:15 for Richardson, who was disqualified from the last Olympics
00:18 due to a positive marijuana test,
00:20 which she followed up with a last place finish
00:22 in her next race.
00:23 So even if her return to the top took a while,
00:26 Sha'Carri's comeback was complete in just 10.65 seconds.
