KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC):

MEGAN TAPPER, Jamaica’s women’s national 100-metre hurdles champion, has signed a four-year professional contract with Adidas.

The 31-year-old, who captured bronze at the 2020 Olympics, said she was delighted to sign the deal with one of the largest athletic apparel and sportswear brands in the world.

“At 31, I’m not slowing down, I’m levelling up. Honoured to sign a four-year deal with Adidas as we chase greatness, stride for stride in three stripes,” Tapper said.

Tapper, who produced a personal-best 12.34 seconds to win her fourth national title at the Jamaican Championships back in June, has been in tremendous form in 2025.

She also clocked the same time at the prestigious Meeting International d’Athlétisme Herculis EBS Diamond League in Monaco in July.
