She BURIED this field 💀 She had the race won by the 100m mark where she made up the stagger on everyone. Shericka is a beast at the the 200m! 🔥
Congratulations Shericka on your first diamond league win.

That 400m strength though....mercy!! I expected her to win but this was sheer dominance.

[maritaodle]

Congrats Shericka! Blessings on your journey 🙏🏽👏🏾

I didn't notice on the first watch but Shericka actually stumbled on her 4th step out of the blocks and lost her balance, and still ate up all three americans outside her without pause. World record loading.

Good all round from shericka as usual, strong finish from Thomas

I've been watching Jacko from 2015 world championships. Then in 2019 she got bronze in the 400 and the 4x4 relay and then anchored the 4x1 team to gold. She was the only Jamaican to get 3 medals that year because Shelly was just coming off her pregnancy, won 2 golds in 100 and 4x100m and Elaine wasn't in form.

[jojomargaux]

She decimated this field, omg. Lol 😂 what a run.

[misak]

I've never seen that much of a gap in the 200m. 😳 I don't know if she's become really really fast, or if everyone else was slow af.

Is there any Jamaicans in the building?? 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 Proud tillll. Congratulations Jacko🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾🇯🇲🇯🇲

And with this 21.80, another interesting stat emerged:
The average of Shericka’s top 5 fastest times improved very marginally from 21.660 to 21.656, which happens to be exactly the same as FloJo’s top 5 average (which was previously the sole fastest top 5). The difference for Shericka is that her top 10 average and beyond are by far the fastest in history, even though she’s only really been focusing on the event now for a couple of years. She definitely has the potential and ability to be the undisputed greatest in the event’s history if she continues on this trajectory.

I do not see anyone beating her at this event in the near future. She is a beast at the 200m. The 100m might be a little too short for her, while the 400m has other legendary sprinters like SMU who was built for the one-lap race. So 200m is def the way to go for SJ. This is her event.

Minnie No more saving energy at the finish line?😂😂

[annmarienelson]

Dat wi call donkey length go shericka u deserve it girl congratulations team 876🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲♥️🙏

[bonobo]

[MichaelDaley]

Gwaan good good! Sug yuh a gwaan! People left a back

[redd]

This was the most overwhelmed season ever, world indoors, commonwealth games, European championship, world championship . some did all 4 or 3 championship.no wonder the Swiss athletes was so tired, but was rewarded becoming world 60m champion, and European 200 m gold 100m silver.
