Published July 5, 2022 7:37 PM

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Allyson Felix was named to her 10th world championships team, where she will have a chance to run in the mixed relay event and add to her record medal collection. Felix, whose 18 medals are the most in world-championship history, has announced that this will be her final season in track. At last month’s national championships, she finished sixth in the 400 meters and did not qualify for any individual events. But the 36-year-old was named to the mixed relay pool when USA Track and Field released its 151-person roster for worlds. The world championships run July 15-24 in Eugene, Oregon.
