Olympic Champion Thompson-Herah Splits with Coach Ahead of Paris 2024

Dispute over 'excessive' compensation leads to search for new coach, but sprinter remains focused on defending titles.

Five-time Olympic champion Elaine Thompson-Herah has split with her coach Shanikie Osbourne eight months before the Paris 2024 Olympics.
The split was due to a breakdown in negotiations on a compensation package, which Thompson-Herah's management team described as 'extremely excessive'.
Thompson-Herah, who is the second-fastest woman in history over 100m, is now seeking a new coach.
Despite the split, Thompson-Herah remains focused on her preparations for the 2024 Summer Olympics where she will defend her sprint titles.
Thompson-Herah failed to qualify for this year's World Championships in Budapest due to an injury-hampered season.
