“Biggest Hug”: Tara Davis Showers Love as 2x World Champion in Shot Put Gets Married

Before the US Olympics trial for the track and field events in June, Tara Davis-Woodhall is not behind in taking her chance to put the best foot there. However, the other athletes seem to complete their personal affairs beforehand. The world champion Noah Lyles seemed to enjoy his entertaining avatar in the NBC ad wearing the cloak of majestic. On the other hand, Sha’Carri Richardson is all up blazing guns against rules dictated by USADA. Tara Davis-Woodhall is also following suit. Recently, one instance attested to that. 

It was the marriage party of the world champion shot put thrower, Chase Jackson (Ealey). Tara missed attending the party but jumped in with a beautiful congratulatory note for the bride. 

The relation Tara Davis made in track and field tryst 

On January 21, the American track and field champion in the throwing division, Chase Jackson married her long-time beau Mitch Jackson. The 29-year-old bride made the Instagram feed merrier by posting her marriage-day aura with the caption “Mrs. Jackson”. Congratulatory messages typically filled the occasion. However, Tara Davis-Woodhall shared her Instagram story from a distance. With Jackson’s marriage-day picture, she penned, “can’t wait to give you the biggest hug. congrats to you! WHOLE A** WIFE”. The 2x Diamond League spearhead’s response is yet to be known. However, it might not let her fill the long jumper’s absence on the occasion. 

However, Tara Davis-Woodhall wasn’t the only track and field royalty to jump in the auspicious moment last night. Kirsty Law, the 2x discus national champion, made her presence to congratulate the power couple. The phenomenal shot put coach Paul Wilson also made out in the guests’ list. But eventually, it was Tara Davis-Woodhall who had her precious moment shared with Chase Jackson in national color once. 

The platform that brought joint glory 

The 2023 Budapest WAC was the occasion where both these two famed track and field athletes participated together. For Tara Davis-Woodhall, it was an event of redemption. On the other, Chase Jackson took it to extend her fairy run that once had placed her in the history book. In the end, she had her second world champion title in Budapest. But the 24-year-old long jumper had to settle for the silver medal in her event.
