In her final professional season, 11-time Olympic medalist and 13-time world champion Allyson Felix is slated to compete in the 400m. She has made every world and Olympic team for the U.S. since 2003. Beyond Felix, the U.S. has a slew of top-tier athletes looking to continue their dominance on the domestic stage, such as Tokyo Olympic champion and world record holder Sydney McLaughlin, two-time Olympic champion and shot put world record holder Ryan Crouser, two-time Olympic gold medalist Athing Mu, Tokyo silver medalist Kenny Bednarek, and Tokyo Olympic bronze medalist and reigning 200m world champion Noah Lyles. Other Olympic medalists expected to compete are Fred Kerley, Emma Coburn, Grant Holloway, Gabby Thomas, Dalilah Muhammad, Rai Benjamin, Courtney Frerichs, Michael Norman, Valarie Allman, and Clayton Murphy, among others.

This meet also provides a platform for rising stars to showcase their talents on a major competitive stage, such as high school phenom Erriyon Knighton, who ran the fourth-fastest 200m time in history in April, and Abby Steiner, the University of Kentucky standout who recently won the 200m and the 4x400m relay at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Also expected to compete in this meet is two-time Olympian Devon Allen, who ran the third-fastest 110m hurdles time in history at the NYC Grand Prix in June, and Sha’Carri Richardson, the 2019 NCAA champion from LSU who became the sixth-fastest woman in history over 100m last year.

Four Weekend Nights of Live Primetime Coverage on NBC Broadcast Network

Extensive Streaming Coverage Across Peacock During 10-Day Event

STAMFORD, Conn. – June 15, 2022 – One month from today, the World Track & Field Championships Oregon22 will begin from the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field and will be presented across numerous networks and platforms of NBCUniversal. It will be the first time the outdoor World Championships will ever be held in the U.S. and NBC Sports will utilize NBC, Peacock, USA Network, CNBC and NBC Sports digital platforms to provide extensive coverage.

In total, NBC Sports will present 43 hours of television coverage plus extensive streaming coverage throughout the 10-day championship meet including four nights of live primetime weekend coverage (July 16-17, July 23-24) and four days of live afternoon weekend coverage (July 16-17, July 23-24) on the NBC broadcast network.

Peacock will stream all competition sessions from Eugene, including exclusive live primetime coverage on July 18 and July 19.

The prestigious meet will be held at University of Oregon’s iconic Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore., which re-opened its doors in 2021 after undergoing major renovations from 2018-2020 that have cemented its status as one of track & field’s premiere venues for international competition.

Dubbed “TrackTown USA,” Eugene and the University of Oregon have hosted multiple U.S. and NCAA championship meets and Diamond League competitions, making it only fitting that it hosts the first-ever outdoor World Championships in the U.S., which was originally scheduled for 2021, but was delayed after the 2020 Tokyo Olympics postponement.

NBC Sports and World Athletics agreed to a long-term media rights extension in November 2020 that will keep World Athletics track & field on NBC through 2029, with the World Track & Field Championships Oregon22 being the first of five outdoor World Championships that will be showcased on the network over the next seven years (2022, 2023, 2025, 2027, 2029). NBC will also present the next four indoor World Championships, World Athletics Relays, and World Athletics Under 20 World Championships, as well as the next five World Athletics Cross Country Championships and World Athletics Half Marathon Championships.

In addition to the World Championships, NBC Sports is set to present six hours of coverage of the U.S. Outdoor Championships across NBC, Peacock, USA Network, and CNBC from June 24-26. This national championship meet will be held at Hayward Field, with the top athletes in the U.S. all vying for spots on the prestigious team that will be sent to compete at the World Championships later that summer.

Allyson Felix, Dalilah Muhammad, Ryan Crouser, Richardson and a Host of Olympians Highlight Coverage of NBC Sports’ Final 2021 USATF ‘Journey to Gold – Tokyo Outdoor Series’ Event

STAMFORD, Conn. – August 18, 2021 – Sha’Carri Richardson will face all three Tokyo Olympic medalists in the women’s 100m, headlining a star-studded field in the Diamond League 2021 Prefontaine Classic as NBC Sports’ live coverage of the 2021 USATF ‘Journey to Gold – Tokyo Outdoor Series’ concludes on Saturday, August 21 from the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field. NBC will present live coverage from 4:30-6 p.m. ET Saturday, with Peacock’s live coverage begins at 4 p.m. ET prior to live streaming NBC’s 90-minute show.

Richardson, competing in her first event since the U.S. Track & Field Trials, will face the three women’s 100m Tokyo Olympics medalists: Jamaica’s Elaine Thompson-Herah (gold), Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (silver) and Shericka Jackson (bronze).

Also expected to compete in Saturday’s field are Allyson Felix – who in Tokyo became the most decorated American Track & Field athlete ever – in the women’s 200m, Tokyo Olympics 400m hurdle silver medalist Dalilah Muhammad, 800m gold medalist Athing Mu, shotput gold medalist Ryan Crouser, Tokyo Olympians Ajee Wilson, Emma Coburn, Matthew Centrowitz and more. The men’s 200m is expected to feature Tokyo silver and bronze medalists Americans Kenny Bednarek (silver) and Noah Lyles (bronze). In the men’s shot put, gold medalist Crouser, who set an Olympic record in Tokyo with a 23.30m throw and a world record in Eugene at the Olympic Trials, and silver medalist Joe Kovacs are both expected to compete. Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Katie Nageotte is expected to headline the women’s pole vault event this weekend.

Following Crouser’s Olympic record shot put of 23.30 meters in Tokyo, NBC Sports’ Paul Swangard said: “That’s like taking a bowling ball, going to the free throw line, turning around and trying to throw a three-quarters shot the other direction. It’s impressive athleticism and strength.”

NBC Sports’ 2021 USATF Journey to Gold – Tokyo Outdoor Series coverage featured five U.S.-based events, which began April 24.

NBC Sports’ Paul Swangard will call the event, joined by four-time Olympic medalist Ato Boldon, four-time Olympic gold medalist Sanya Richards-Ross, Olympic decathlon silver medalist Trey Hardee, and two-time Olympian Des Linden as analysts, and Lewis Johnson as a reporter.
