Dramatic incidents, such as the injuries of prominent athletes like Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, and the withdrawal of Sha’Carri Richardson from 100-meter races, happened just before the main event.

And now, she has won her first 200-meter race of the season at the Absa Kip Keino Classic at the Kasarani Stadium in Nairobi, Kenya.
