The feud between Sha’Carri Richardson and the Jamaican medalists is just getting started. Richardson returned to the track on Saturday last weekend to face off against Elaine Thompson-Hera, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, and Sherika Jackson, the respective gold, silver, and bronze 100-meter medalists.

Hype for the race was ramped up following Team Jamaica’s wins in the 100-meter Olympic event and Richardson’s bold tweet, “Missing me yet?”

She didn’t do very well, and the Jamaican sprinters repeated their Olympic finish.

After she was offered a free vacation to the country to rest following her loss, Sha’Carri decided to shade Jamaicans again, double-tapping a disrespectful tweet that reads:

“Not y’all Jamaicans still talking shit when y’all gotta walk barefoot to your coconut stand everyday for a living.”

What a fast fall from grace. What could have been if she only laid off the weeeeeeed.
