BURBANK, Calif. — Michael Johnson's new track league has struck a media deal for Peacock to stream all the action live and The CW to broadcast the weekend races during the four events in 2025. The Grand Slam Track League has signed 48 racers, including Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone and Gabby Thomas, to compete in a four-event circuit beginning April 4 in Kingston, Jamaica. Johnson has raised upward of $30 million and the league is promising $100,000 first prizes and a prize pool of more than $12.6 million in addition to undisclosed amounts to those who participate in the season-long series.
