In recent weeks, both well-known athletes and new faces have made their mark, with only a month remaining before the track and field events commence at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The last time she raced the 400metres hurdles at Hayward Field in the 2022 championships, the New Jersey native set the world record at 50.68 seconds. On Sunday, she smashed her own mark by clocking three hundredths of a second less in order to book her spot at the Paris 2024 Games.

Noah Lyles won the final of the 200-metre dash Saturday, which will allow him to fight for the speed double at the Paris Games, as Sha'Carri Richardson's dreams of an Olympic sprint double ended in disappointment at the US trials. The world champion of the 100m had looked poised to claim at least a top-three finish in the women's 200m after the Texan had shone in the semifinals on Friday with a time of 21.92. 

Sha'Carri Richardson and Noah Lyles stayed on course for sprint doubles and 400m hurdles queen Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone strolled to an easy victory in heats at the US Olympic athletics trials on Thursday. Richardson, who claimed an impressive victory in the 100m on Saturday, barely got out of second gear as she coasted through her opening 200m heat in 21.99sec at Hayward Field in Eugene.

The great American athlete Michael Johnson announced on Tuesday the launch of a new track league that will feature the 'best of the best' competing in four elite meetings each year starting next year.

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone plans to defend her 400-meter hurdles title at the Paris Olympics, opting out of the 200- and 400-meter flat races she initially entered.

Femke Bol, fresh from two golds and a bronze at the European Championships, admits she is looking forward to what she says will be a "nice battle" with American arch-rival Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone at the Paris Olympics. Bol was one of the stars of the championships in Rome, dominating her speciality event, the 400m hurdles, and going on to anchor the women's 4x400m relay team to victory while also picking up third place in the mixed relay.

Femke Bol made her outdoor debut in preparation for the Paris Olympics by clinching victory in the 400m hurdles at the Diamond League event in Stockholm last Sunday. Meanwhile, Armand Duplantis came close to surpassing his own pole vault world record.

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone intensified her training for the upcoming Paris Games title defense by clocking a world-leading time of 52.70 seconds on Friday. This marked her return to the 400 meters hurdles race after over a year.

American Rai Benjamin won the men's 400m hurdles in a world-leading 46.64 seconds at the USATF Los Angeles Grand Prix on Saturday as Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone posted an impressive 200m victory, Agence France-Presse reported Saturday.

Femke Bol got the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix in Boston off to a compelling start as she set a women's 500 metres world best of 1min 5.63sec.

Sweden's pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis and 400m hurdler Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone of the United States, world champions and record-breakers this season, were tonight named as respective men's and women's World Athlete of the Year.
