Track to open LA Olympics, with women's 100-meter sprinters lining up three times in the same day Updated 15 mins ago As part of a seismic schedule change for the 2028 Los Angeles Games, track and field, and not swimming, will lead off the Olympics. And the first day at the LA Coliseum, July 15, will include all three rounds of the women’s 100 meters. Sprinters normally run a maximum of two races in a day at a major event. It’s a change the men will not have to deal with, but that a women’s field that could include the last two world champions, Sha’Carri Richardson and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, and Olympic champ Julien Alfred are being given nearly three years to prepare for.
