Some of the finest athletes in the world are competing in the Diamond League meet in Brussels. Even though Elaine Thompson-Herah and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce are not taking part in the meet, there are still plenty of talents on the track. Namibian teenager Christine Mboma is one of the them, and looks to be a rising star. She won the 200-meter race and shocked the audience in attendance with her incredible pace. However, after the race, she took a cheeky little dig on the American athlete Sha’Carri Richardson.

Christine Mboma refuses to hug Sha’Carri Richardson

In an explosive race, the teenager ran one of the best races of her life and took home the gold medal. But, her stock went through the roof after a cheeky little dig on Richardson. The sprinter crossed the line and hugged her fellow competitor, Dina Asher-Smith. Having said that, she just patted Richardson on her shoulder and quite evidently refused to hug her.

A funny moment from the champion.
