OREGON — The women’s 200 meters start lists for the first round heats here at Hayward Field on the Campus of the University of Oregon in Eugene, on Monday (18). Jamaicans Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson-Herah who swept the women’s 100m final on Sunday night, will make a quick return for the half-lap here today.
World leader Jackson, who finished second in the 100m, will be the first of the Jamaican triple threat on the track where she will start in heat one against Nigeria’s Rosemary Chukwuma, who featured for Texas Tech during the collegiate season this year and Edidiong Ofinome Odiong of Bahrain.
Olympic champion Thompson-Herah will race in heat two from the eighth lane where she will go up against Olympic finalist Beatrice Madilingi of Namibia and Joella Lloyd of Antigua and Barbuda.
Meanwhile, world 100m champion Fraser-Pryce will start in heat three against 100m finalist Marie-Josee Ta Lou of Ivory Coast and Aminatou Seyni of Niger.
Elsewhere, NCAA record holder and US champion Abby Steiner will make her World Athletics Championships debut from heat five and will be up against Swiss star Mujinga Kambundji, the 2019 bronze medalist in Doha.
Dina Asher-Smith, the defending world champion from Great Britain will begin her title defense in heat four alongside American Tamara Clark, while USA’s Jenna Prandini will start against collegiate star Favour Ofili of Nigeria and Bahamas’ Anthonique Strachan, in heat five.
