Sha’Carri Richardson had an exceptionally strong start to her 2023 season in South Florida. Participating in her first individual meet of the year (after running the 4x100 at the Texas Relays the previous weekend), Richardson achieved a time of 10.75 seconds (+2.8 wind) in the preliminary round. She followed it up with an impressive performance in the women's 100-meter final at the Miramar Invitational, finishing in first place with a time of 10.57 seconds (+4.1 wind). Although the tailwind exceeded the legal limit of 2.0 m/s, Richardson dominated the competition, which included Melissa Jefferson and TeeTee Terry, both among the top three finishers in last year's US championships. Terry finished far behind in second place with a time of 10.83 seconds, while no other women in the A final managed to break the 11-second mark. Richardson's time ranks as the fourth-fastest ever recorded for the 100-meter race under any weather conditions.
