Sha’Carri Richardson painted ‘I’m not back. I’m better’ on her nails before winning 4x100m gold

Absolutely golden nails for a gold medal Olympian.

Yes, Sha’Carri Richardson was wearing “I’m not back. I’m better” nails after winning a gold medal in the women’s 4×100-meter relay.

Nobody was stopping Sha’Carri from winning gold for Team USA on Friday. Not the rain, her competitors — NOTHING. After she delivered the nastiest look back at the field and then CRUISED to the finish line, it was OVER.

But for me, the message is in the details. Cameras caught a glimpse of Sha’Carri’s nails post-race, and you guessed it. They were decorated in the Olympic rings, jewels and American flag-themed colors, and her signature phrase was written on the thumbs. Outstanding.

Here’s a few more photos of her nails in all their glory:
