After all the drama that unfolded after her race in Eugene, and missing the Olympic Games due to a suspension from USATF. Richardson returns to the track in search of redemption.
Richardson will go up against 200m specialist and 2019 World Champion Dina Asher-Smith and the Namibian duo of Beatrice Masilingi and Tokyo silver medallist Christine Mboma.
