Sha'Carri Richardson will officially miss the Tokyo Olympics after testing positive for marijuana.
Richardson received a 30-day suspension for the positive test which ensured that she would not be able to run her primary event, the 100-meter dash.
The timing of the ban left open the possibility that she could still compete for a medal in the 4x100 relay, which will take place after her suspension is over.
But the USA Track & Field announced its full roster of athletes yesterday (Tuesday), revealing that Richardson has not been selected as a member of the 4x100 relay team.
