The American sprinter defeated the 100m Olympic champion, Julien Alfred, and her fellow teammate, Brittany Brown, to claim her first individual Olympic gold medal. Since then, she has appeared in multiple media events, podcasts, and fashion weeks. Thomas was seen gracing the cover of Vogue magazine at the start of this year.

The 28-year-old was also the grand marshal for the New York City Marathon and competed at both invitational events - Grand Slam Track League hosted by former athlete Michael Johnson and the women-only Athlos NYC track meet sponsored by tennis legend Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian. Amid her luxurious life, she shared a glimpse of her hotel room, showcasing how much success she has achieved.

Gabby Thomas recently reflected on her coach Tonja Buford-Bailey's inspiring words that motivated her to earn the spot for her debut Olympics. She recalled her coach telling her to participate to win and not just show up to have fun, as it would not have earned her any sponsors or praise. During her appearance on the Stockton Street podcast, hosted by Serena and Venus Williams, Thomas explained how her coach pressured her to succeed.

"I remember her saying, sitting me down and being like, 'Look, nobody cares that you were here. Nobody cares that you were running. You need to win. All they care about is medals. These shoe companies that pay you, all the brands that pay you, all they care about is medals. So you can be here, you can have fun all you want, but that's not gonna work here, and it scared the, it scared me." [13:58 onwards]

She dominated the 200m at the Trials and won a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
