Ryan Crouser has wholeheartedly recommended Sha’Carri Richardson as the ideal travelling companion for their much-anticipated trip to the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

As they both get ready for the competition, Crouser has expressed his excitement about the possibility of sharing this momentous experience with Richardson.

He thinks that Richardson’s bubbly personality will make the journey more enjoyable. Crouser’s recommendation highlights the athletes’ camaraderie as they prepare for this prestigious event.

Olympian Ryan Crouser, who is currently leading the shot-put competition, recently tweeted that he was looking forward to travelling to Paris with Sha’Carri Richardson.

This Wednesday, in a social media post for Team USA, Crouser called Richardson “a firecracker”, expressing his excitement about the vibrant energy she will bring to the quest.

Beyond sports, he is impressed by Richardson’s dynamic personality, and he expressed a sincere desire to interact with her while they were travelling from the United States. Crouser’s words capture the attitude of mutual respect and unity among Team USA members in a way that goes beyond sports.

‘She is captivating’

“She is captivating, and a firebrand.” Crouser was quoted as saying by Olympics.com.

Richardson could be an ideal companion for Crouser during their flight to Paris for another reason.

Ryan Crouser, an Oregonian,  is 6 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 145 kg (320 pounds), laughed when he said he picked Sha’Carri while Richardson is only five feet and one inch (155 cm) tall.

“She doesn’t take up a ton of space,” he said, laughing. “So I can kind of lean into her seat and not feel bad about it.”

To guarantee their seats on Team USA for the Olympics in Paris, both athletes are preparing for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials in track and field, which will take place in Eugene, Oregon, on June 21.
