<h2>Elaine Thompson-Herah: Net Worth, Career, Family, Husband, Achievements and More</h2>
[caption id="attachment_1013981" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1013981 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1332135654.jpg" alt="Elaine Thompson-Herah" width="1920" height="1280" /> TOKYO, JAPAN - AUGUST 03: Elaine Thompson-Herah of Team Jamaica celebrates with her countries flag after winning the gold medal in the Women's 200m Final on day eleven of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at Olympic Stadium on August 03, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan. (Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images)[/caption]

Jamaican athlete <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/elaine-thompson-herah/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elaine Thompson-Herah</a> is an Olympic champion. Thompson-Herah is known for her "double-double win" in track and field events in the 2021 Tokyo Olympicsâ€”no other female athlete had ever successfully defended the Olympic titles in the 100 and 200 meters! The speedster is an intimidating rival in the 60, 100, and 200-meter events, often drawing parallels to the legendary Usain Bolt.

Hailed as one of the greatest sprinters of all time, Thompson-Herah has won five medals at the Olympics four of them gold in just two visits, leaving her mark on sports history. She became the second-fastest female sprinter in the 200 meters and the fastest woman alive in the 100 meters at Tokyo. Her amazing accomplishments along the way created a lasting impression on the sports world. Elaine's achievement has been greatly supported by her husband, who also stepped up as her coach. Having stacked up a flurry of wins, the Olympic track and field star's career earnings are among the highest earners in athletics.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Â Elaine Thompson-Herah net worth</strong></h2>
Thompson-Herah's more than two decades' worth of dedicationÂ to herÂ track and field events came with huge paychecks.Â Celebrity Net Worth estimates the Jamaican sprinter's net worth at $4 million.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Elaine Thompsonâ€™s parents</strong></h2>
Rose Richard and Keith Thompson welcomed the Jamaican Sprint Queen into the world on June 28, 1992. Her father is a barber in his nativeâ€”Mandeville, Jamaica. Keith was an athlete in school who would win prizes, much to what his daughter is accomplishing on the world stage. Keith once said that he had known his daughter would become a professional sprinter when she was just 11. Elaine also shares a good relationship with her mother Rose and usually posts lovely pictures on her Instagram on Mother's Day.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Elaine Thompson-Herah early life and childhood</strong></h2>
Just seven months after being born, Elaine was given to her grandmother Gloria so that she could raise her. It was her family who tried convincing Thompson-Herah that she was <em>"born to run,"</em> while she wasn't even the best runner in her class. But two years later, she quit the track and field team but her journey only went uphill. After graduating from Christiana High School, she ran for Manchester High School during her time at school. She made her competitive debut in 2009 as a junior athlete butÂ finished fourth at the Jamaican ISSA Grace Kennedy Boys and Girls Championships.

The Jamaican's potential convinced Paul Francis to invite her to enroll in the University of Technology in Jamaica. Under Francis's coaching, she advanced steadily and finished second in the Jamaican Intercollegiate Championships after setting a season-best time of 11.41 seconds at the Gibson Relays. Later, she was found by Stephen Francis, the athletics coach who established the MVP Track Club and went on to change the trajectory of her athletics life.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Elaine Thompson-Herahâ€™s Husband?</strong></h2>
Elaine is married to former athlete and coach, Derron Herah. Before making their relationship official on Instagram on November 2, 2019, the couple maintained a low profile. The sprinter and her husband share posts on Instagram on their wedding anniversary every year.

Derron has had a brief professional career himself from 2001-2008. A seven-year career that ends at age 26 is short in a field where many professionals retire well into their 30s. According to his Instagram bio, Derron is into business ventures such as The Loan and Pawn Shop.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>All about Elaine Thompson-Herahâ€™s track and field career</strong></h2>
Elaine Thompson-Herah's career as an athlete began with a reliable start. Elaine headed to the track determined to compete in the 4 Ã— 100 meters relay at the 2013 Central American and Caribbean Championships in Morelia. She ran to victory as an integral part of the Jamaican team, taking home the gold in 43.58 seconds. The Jamaican's efforts paid off once more in 2014 as she ranked sixth in the national competition and won her first intercollegiate title. She continued to gain momentum leading up to the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow when she won another gold in the preliminary 4 Ã— 100 m relay.

Elaine's road to Olympic gloryÂ wasn't anÂ easy one. Stephen Francis, her longtimeÂ coach firstÂ recognized her talent and challenged her boundaries. His critical comments and demanding training schedule put her to the test. But Elaine might never have achieved the highest level of Olympic glory if it weren't for his unwavering motivation and faith in her abilities.

With a season-best time of 11.00 seconds in the Zurich Diamond League meeting, the Olympic sprint double-double champion from Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2021 appeared promising as he finished third behind world champion Sha'Carri Richardson. After being sidelined by injury in the 2023 season, Thompson-Herah is back to her peak performance. However, Thompson-Herah temporarily hired former MVP coach Shanikie Osbourne to coach her for the rest of the 2023 track and field season following a challenging start to the season. With a run of 10.54 seconds during the Prefontaine Classic in August 2021, Thompson-Herah broke the national record for Jamaica. She will now begin her Olympic campaign with the same race in Eugene, Oregon on May 25, 2024.

Elaine Thompson-Herah: Net Worth, Career, Family, Husband, Achievements and More TOKYO, JAPAN &#8211; AUGUST 03: Elaine Thompson-Herah of Team Jamaica celebrates with her countries flag after winning the gold medal in the Women&#8217;s 200m Final on day eleven of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at Olympic Stadium on August 03, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan. (Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images) Jamaican athlete Elaine Thompson-Herah is an Olympic champion. Thompson-Herah is known for her &#8220;double-double win&#8221; in track and field events in the 2021 Tokyo Olympicsâ€”no other female athlete had ever successfully defended the Olympic titles in the 100 and 200 meters! The speedster is an intimidating rival in the 60, 100, and 200-meter events, often drawing parallels to the legendary Usain Bolt. Hailed as one of the greatest sprinters of all time, Thompson-Herah has won five medals at the Olympics four of them gold in just two visits, leaving her mark on sports history. She became the second-fastest female sprinter in the 200 meters and the fastest woman alive in the 100 meters at Tokyo. Her amazing accomplishments along the way created a lasting impression on the sports world. Elaine&#8217;s achievement has been greatly supported by her husband, who also stepped up as her coach. Having stacked up a flurry of wins, the Olympic track and field star&#8217;s career earnings are among the highest earners in athletics. Â Elaine Thompson-Herah net worth Thompson-Herah&#8217;s more than two decades&#8217; worth of dedicationÂ to herÂ track and field events came with huge paychecks.Â Celebrity Net Worth estimates the Jamaican sprinter&#8217;s net worth at $4 million. Elaine Thompsonâ€™s parents Rose Richard and Keith Thompson welcomed the Jamaican Sprint Queen into the world on June 28, 1992. Her father is a barber in his nativeâ€”Mandeville, Jamaica. Keith was an athlete in school who would win prizes, much to what his daughter is accomplishing on the world stage. Keith once said that he had known his daughter would become a professional sprinter when she was just 11. Elaine also shares a good relationship with her mother Rose and usually posts lovely pictures on her Instagram on Mother&#8217;s Day. Elaine Thompson-Herah early life and childhood Just seven months after being born, Elaine was given to her grandmother Gloria so that she could raise her. It was her family who tried convincing Thompson-Herah that she was &#8220;born to run,&#8221; while she wasn&#8217;t even the best runner in her class. But two years later, she quit the track and field team but her journey only went uphill. After graduating from Christiana High School, she ran for Manchester High School during her time at school. She made her competitive debut in 2009 as a junior athlete butÂ finished fourth at the Jamaican ISSA Grace Kennedy Boys and Girls Championships. The Jamaican&#8217;s potential convinced Paul Francis to invite her to enroll in the University of Technology in Jamaica. Under Francis&#8217;s coaching, she advanced steadily and finished second in the Jamaican Intercollegiate Championships after setting a season-best time of 11.41 seconds at the Gibson Relays. Later, she was found by Stephen Francis, the athletics coach who established the MVP Track Club and went on to change the trajectory of her athletics life. Who is Elaine Thompson-Herahâ€™s Husband? Elaine is married to former athlete and coach, Derron Herah. Before making their relationship official on Instagram on November 2, 2019, the couple maintained a low profile. The sprinter and her husband share posts on Instagram on their wedding anniversary every year. Derron has had a brief professional career himself from 2001-2008. A seven-year career that ends at age 26 is short in a field where many professionals retire well into their 30s. According to his Instagram bio, Derron is into business ventures such as The Loan and Pawn Shop. All about Elaine Thompson-Herahâ€™s track and field career Elaine Thompson-Herah&#8217;s career as an athlete began with a reliable start. Elaine headed to the track determined to compete in the 4 Ã— 100 meters relay at the 2013 Central American and Caribbean Championships in Morelia.

<h2>Shaâ€™Carri Richardson: Net Worth 2024, Athletics Career, Family, and More</h2>
[caption id="attachment_2139626" align="alignnone" width="473"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-2139626" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1638667204-473x315.jpg" alt="" width="473" height="315" /> BUDAPEST, HUNGARY - AUGUST 25: Bronze medalist Sha'Carri Richardson of Team United States reacts after the Women's 200m Final during day seven of the World Athletics Championships Budapest 2023 at National Athletics Centre on August 25, 2023 in Budapest, Hungary. (Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images)[/caption]

The enigmatic Sha'Carri Richardson is regarded as one of the brightest talents in athletics. While competing for her high school and at national level competitions, she clinched a multitude of accolades and created a name for herself in the track and field arena. The influence of the G.O.A.T., Florence Griffith-Joyner is evident in her style and attire on the track. Her colored hair keeps changing all the time as it has become a part of her identity.
<h2><strong>Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Net Worth 2024</strong></h2>
The net worth of American sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson is estimated to be between $1 million to $5 million. Her salary ranges between $45,000 and $50,000. The major chunk of her wealth is from her earnings as a track and field champion and various endorsements with elite brands like Nike, Beats, and Apple Music.
<h2><strong>Sha'Carri Richardsonâ€™s Family and Early Life</strong></h2>
Sha'Carri was born on 25th March 2000 in Dallas, Texas. She had a rather choppy start to life after her mother abandoned her. Her grandmother had an instrumental role in her upbringing and motivated her to be an athlete. With no siblings in the picture, the athlete was raised by her grandmother, Betty Harp, and her aunt.

In 2021, a week before the Japan Olympics trail began, her biological mother passed away. The track and field star was oblivious to her mother's demise until she was asked about it by a reporter. She doesn't have siblings.

Richardson got enrolled at Louisiana State University and was a part of the LSU Lady Tigers track and field team. Her ability on the track was clear since she was young. Hence, she started participating in track and field competitions in her teenage years, and in 2016 she competed in her first race at the US Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Junior Olympics where she stood atop the podium in the race track event of her age group. Standing at around 5'1", the sprinter has a unique sprinting style.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Track and Field Accomplishments</strong></h2>
Sha'Carri Richardson's victory in the 100-meter race in the AAU Junior Olympics in 2016 elevated her career. After that, she won the Emerging Athlete Award at the USA Track &amp; Field Junior Championships in 2017. More success followed at the 2017 Pan American U20 Athletics Championships where she won the gold medal as well.

During her LSU career, the athlete entered the 2019 NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships and reached the finals. The real breakthrough came when she won the 100-meter race at the 2019 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Additionally, she finished in second place in the 200-meter race.

Both the races saw her create the world under-20 records for the sprints. Finally, after her first year, she went on to become a professional in a bid to get selected for the Tokyo Olympics 2020. However, just before her much-awaited debut at the Olympics, she was handed a ban by the World Anti-Doping Agency for doping <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-track-and-field-news-should-have-never-tried-to-poison-me-shacarri-richardson-exposes-close-ones-publicly-in-a-bold-statement/" target="_self" rel="noopener">due to which she missed the event</a>. After that, the sprinter returned for the Nike Prefontaine Classic Meet and finished fourth in the race. She set a time of 10.80 seconds.

Her arrival on the big stage came when she created the sixth-fastest time in women's 100-meter history. She set a time of 10.72 seconds and coincidently, became the fourth-fastest American sprinter in the nation's history. The dreams of becoming an international athlete became fulfilled after she set a time of 10.86 in the United States Olympic Trials.

In 2023, Richardson clocked the 100 m world lead and met the record to beat Shericka Jackson and Dina Asher-Smith at the 2023 Diamond League season in the Qatari capital, Doha. Richardson, who <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-track-and-field-newsstay-quiet-and-put-in-the-work-track-world-reacts-to-shacarri-richardsons-first-win-of-the-season/" target="_self" rel="noopener">has a personal best of 10.72</a> clocked <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-track-and-field-news-love-this-despite-rivalry-shacarri-richardsons-rare-heartwarming-moment-with-jamaican-competitor-goes-viral/" target="_self" rel="noopener">a jaw-dropping wind-assisted 10.57 in Miramar Invitational</a> - the third fastest all-conditions time in world history.

In July, Richardson secured the title of US national champion in the 100-meter sprint event by triumphing in the women's 100m final with a time of 10.82 seconds. This victory also earned her qualification for the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest.

Richardson achieved her inaugural major individual title on the international stage on the third day of the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest. She clinched the gold medal in the women's 100-meter sprint event, setting a championship record with an impressive time of 10.65 seconds. This was followed by a bronze in the women's 200 m final in 21.92 seconds.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Personal and Dating Life</strong></h2>
Though Sha'Carri Richardson is presently not dating anyone, she was in a relationship with Jamaican track and field athlete Janeek Brown. However, after almost a year of dating, Richardson and Brown parted ways.

Pulling off the curtains from her break up with Brown, Richardson took to her Instagram handle and penned, "<em>I was in a relationship with a Jamaican athlete that never cared about me from jump. I was abused and stole from yet protected her from the judgement of her country &amp; family while they dragged me. I had to deal with homophobic and so much more that I'm still healing from</em>".
<h2><strong>Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Controversies</strong></h2>

(Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images) The enigmatic Sha&#8217;Carri Richardson is regarded as one of the brightest talents in athletics. While competing for her high school and at national level competitions, she clinched a multitude of accolades and created a name for herself in the track and field arena. The influence of the G.O.A.T., Florence Griffith-Joyner is evident in her style and attire on the track. Her colored hair keeps changing all the time as it has become a part of her identity. Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Net Worth 2024 The net worth of American sprinter Sha&#8217;Carri Richardson is estimated to be between $1 million to $5 million. Her salary ranges between $45,000 and $50,000. The major chunk of her wealth is from her earnings as a track and field champion and various endorsements with elite brands like Nike, Beats, and Apple Music. Sha&#8217;Carri Richardsonâ€™s Family and Early Life Sha&#8217;Carri was born on 25th March 2000 in Dallas, Texas. She had a rather choppy start to life after her mother abandoned her. Her grandmother had an instrumental role in her upbringing and motivated her to be an athlete. With no siblings in the picture, the athlete was raised by her grandmother, Betty Harp, and her aunt. In 2021, a week before the Japan Olympics trail began, her biological mother passed away. The track and field star was oblivious to her mother&#8217;s demise until she was asked about it by a reporter. She doesn&#8217;t have siblings. Richardson got enrolled at Louisiana State University and was a part of the LSU Lady Tigers track and field team. Her ability on the track was clear since she was young. Hence, she started participating in track and field competitions in her teenage years, and in 2016 she competed in her first race at the US Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Junior Olympics where she stood atop the podium in the race track event of her age group. Standing at around 5&#8217;1&#8243;, the sprinter has a unique sprinting style.

More success followed at the 2017 Pan American U20 Athletics Championships where she won the gold medal as well. During her LSU career, the athlete entered the 2019 NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships and reached the finals. The real breakthrough came when she won the 100-meter race at the 2019 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Additionally, she finished in second place in the 200-meter race. Both the races saw her create the world under-20 records for the sprints. Finally, after her first year, she went on to become a professional in a bid to get selected for the Tokyo Olympics 2020. However, just before her much-awaited debut at the Olympics, she was handed a ban by the World Anti-Doping Agency for doping due to which she missed the event. After that, the sprinter returned for the Nike Prefontaine Classic Meet and finished fourth in the race. She set a time of 10.80 seconds. Her arrival on the big stage came when she created the sixth-fastest time in women&#8217;s 100-meter history. She set a time of 10.72 seconds and coincidently, became the fourth-fastest American sprinter in the nation&#8217;s history. The dreams of becoming an international athlete became fulfilled after she set a time of 10.86 in the United States Olympic Trials. In 2023, Richardson clocked the 100 m world lead and met the record to beat Shericka Jackson and Dina Asher-Smith at the 2023 Diamond League season in the Qatari capital, Doha. Richardson, who has a personal best of 10.72 clocked a jaw-dropping wind-assisted 10.57 in Miramar Invitational &#8211; the third fastest all-conditions time in world history. In July, Richardson secured the title of US national champion in the 100-meter sprint event by triumphing in the women&#8217;s 100m final with a time of 10.82 seconds. This victory also earned her qualification for the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest. Richardson achieved her inaugural major individual title on the international stage on the third day of the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest. She clinched the gold medal in the women&#8217;s 100-meter sprint event, setting a championship record with an impressive time of 10.65 seconds. This was followed by a bronze in the women&#8217;s 200 m final in 21.92 seconds. Shaâ€™Carri Richardsonâ€™s Personal and Dating Life Though Sha&#8217;Carri Richardson is presently not dating anyone, she was in a relationship with Jamaican track and field athlete Janeek Brown. However, after almost a year of dating, Richardson and Brown parted ways. Pulling off the curtains from her break up with Brown, Richardson took to her Instagram handle and penned, &#8220;I was in a relationship with a Jamaican athlete that never cared about me from jump. I was abused and stole from yet protected her from the judgement of her country &amp; family while they dragged me. I had to deal with homophobic and so much more that I&#8217;m still healing from&#8220;.
