Career

A member of the MVP Track Club, Thompson competed at the Jamaican national trials in June 2023, and ran 9.91 seconds for the 100 metres in his qualifying heat.

This was pre-planned, his coach Stephen Francis explained that due to a number of injuries in previous years he had a schedule to avoid multiple-round running that year.
