Olympic Games sprint double champion Elaine Thompson-Herah is not on the startlist for Sunday’s (28) USATF Bermuda Grand Prix. Just this week, fans in Bermuda expressed their anticipation of the arrival of one of the world’s top sprinters, but she will not grace the track at the Flora Duffy Stadium.

Yackeisha Weir, president of the Jamaican Association of Bermuda (JAB), shared her excitement with Bernews, noting that over a hundred local Jamaicans are expected to turn out in full force to cheer on Thompson-Herah. “The anticipation is high this year, especially as we have the fastest woman alive competing,” Ms. Weir told Bernews. “With the Olympic Games taking place this summer, Bermuda has a chance to see a preview of Paris. It’s an honor to have Elaine on the island,” she added, as reported by Bernews.
Thompson-Herah, a star sprinter who achieved the rare feat of winning the sprint double at consecutive Olympic Games — first in Rio in 2016 and then in Tokyo in 2021 — is not competing.
The 31-year-old athlete also clinched gold in the 4×100 relay in Tokyo, joining the elite ranks of Usain Bolt and Florence Griffith-Joyner as one of the few to complete an Olympic triple clean sweep of sprint medals.
She is yet to open her 2024 season in a very important year, which will see her chasing three straight sprint double titles in Paris 2024.
Meanwhile, Noah Lyles, Kirani James, along with rising stars Jaydon Hibbert, Alana Reid and Tamari Davis are some of the big names down to compete.
