Her best performances at the World Championships are in Doha 2019 where she finished sixth and then finished fifth in Eugene 2022.
“It’s not an obvious technical flaw, and she’s one of the hardest workers you’ll find. But there’s a mental aspect to racing rounds at a championship level—handling the pressure, the expectations, and the weight of proving yourself,” Mark Elliott said in an interview with Sports Max TV.
“She has one of the fastest 400m times among 800m runners, running 51 seconds in the quarter. Only Keely Hodgkinson and Mary Moraa are probably quicker in the 400m. So, it’s not a speed issue—it’s about executing at the right time.”

“She won’t race a lot. She’s expected to run at Grand Slam Track—that will be an early test to see where she is. She’s only run two races this year, but she was sick, so the results don’t reflect where she actually is,” Mark Elliott added.
“She’s never been one to jump around between coaches. She trusts the process, and now it’s just a matter of execution when it counts.”
The Jamaican now eyes redemption at the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo, Japan and she will be out to stretch to the LA 2028 Olympic Games hoping to make an impact.
