American Olympic 200m champion Gabby Thomas was narrowly defeated by Brittany Brown during the inaugural Athlos NYC, where many of the world's elite female track athletes vied for substantial prizes.

Thomas, who secured three gold medals at Paris 2024, finished with a time of 22.21 seconds, while Brown, the Olympic bronze medalist, took the victory with a time of 22.18 seconds.
