Background
The 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest, Hungary, were held from 19 to 27 August 2023. The Championships were held at the National Athletics Centre.[1] To qualify for the World Championships, athletes had to reach an entry standard (e.g. time or distance), place in a specific position at select competitions, be a wild card entry, or qualify through their World Athletics Ranking at the end of the qualification period.[2]
Triple jumper Jah-Nhai Perinchief would be the sole representative for the nation at the championships. He qualified after he ranked 23rd in the World Athletics Rankings for the men's triple jump.[3] In the lead-up to the Championships, he was hoping for his teammate middle-distance runner Dage Minors to qualify. Previously, Perinchief had competed for Bermuda at the 2022 World Athletics Championships.[4]
