How Much Is the Prize Money at the 2025 USATF Championships?

USATF Championship medals will be granted to the top 10 men’s and women’s winners, as well as to first through third place finishers in masters divisions (every five years starting at 40). An award ceremony will follow the race. A master’s runner can place both in the overall award category and in their master’s age group, which is called double-dipping.

 Who Are the Star Athletes to Watch at the USATF Outdoor Championships 2025?

There is a huge list of elite athletes competing in this four-day competition, and here is a list of all of them. 

While reigning in the 2023 world champion and the 2024 Olympic silver medalist, Sha’Carri Richardson is entered and has her spot reserved for Tokyo; her inclusion in the top three of the women’s 100 meters at the USAs is hardly guaranteed.

Twanisha Terry – the other teammate of Richardson and Jefferson-Wooden – comes in with a season best of 10.85, while Jacious Sears has run 10.85 and JaMeesia Ford has a best of 10.87. 

There is a total of six women, including Aleia Hobbs, who entered the first round with season-best times under 10.90. About a year ago, at the U.S. Olympic Trials, it was the Star Athletics trio of Richardson, Jefferson-Wooden and Terry who took the top three spots.

For the men’s sprinting race ,the list is:

  •  Cole Hocker
  •  Grant Holloway
  •  Grant Fisher
  • Rai Benjamin
  • Masai Russell
