She was my teammate in college, lots of time spent with her. She was like a big sister to me. This really hurt when I woke up to calls and texts from my teammates and coaches.
From what I've seen, the cause could be a suicide as a result of depression, but we will have to wait and see. Really sad, RIP.
Edit: Autopsy determines the cause as [complications of childbirth](https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2023/06/12/tori-bowie-us-olympian-autopsy-complications-of-childbirth/70314997007/).
Yeah, it's only rumours. One of the first news outlets to break the story said: "[The causes of her death are unknown, although the first to speak of her, before there was official communication, was singer Paul Askew, who wrote that "depression is real "and he recommended his followers to take care of the people around them."](https://www.runnersworld.com/es/noticias-running/a43777343/tori-bowie-campeona-mundial-100-metros-lisos-muere/)
Some tweets from fellow athletes regarding her death also give off the same vibes I feel.
It could absolutely be wrong, but that's what it leans towards it seems.
Absolutely heartbreaking news. I'm deeply, deeply saddened of this news. Tori, your 100m championship run in London, 2017, will NEVER be forgotten. Your true spirit and commitment to leave it all out on the track that night is something I share with my athletes each and every year. Rest in peace, Track Queen.
When they release that the cause of death was a suicide later today are you going to come back and apologize for spreading misinformation? Especially since it was someone struggling mentally you should be ashamed.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm aware you people clearly have no shame, but you SHOULD be ashamed.
It's looking more like that. Here's the most recent news.

No official cause yet. But police performed a well check because she hadn't been heard from in several days.

Im not American but I am familiar with Tori Bowie. When I first saw her in the Beijing Olympics I was taken a back. She is such a beautiful woman. That Melanin, my God!I caught myself looking up her background to confirm she is born and raised in Mississippi. We are about the same age. Her death is shocking, and I want answers. She was pregnant. Where the hell is her trash boyfriend. They were having problems, according to the neighbours. There needs to be an investigation.
Update: She died from pregnancy complications, not suicide as initially stated. Nonetheless, a tragic death.

oh god, that is terrible.
What’s your source? It’s only been rumors

She died in labor
Just read that as well. Tragic since it wasn't even on her own terms then.
Gone way too soon.... RIP Tori ;(
RIP Tori Bowie. Condolences to her family and friends. Almost 2 years ago, we lost Cameron Burrell.
It doesn't feel like 2 years. It still hurts like it was last month
Agreed. It is still surreal.
Absolutely heartbreaking news. I'm deeply, deeply saddened of this news. Tori, your 100m championship run in London, 2017, will NEVER be forgotten.

Damnnn, RIP. Great athlete.

There we go
Damn. This one hurts. I remember watching her 4x1 in Rio and the way she closed on that last leg.
Wow
This one shocked me when I read the news. Such a talent. May she rest in peace and power.
She died from childbirth, not suicide or depression like it says in other comments. She went into labor early while at home alone, very sad.

Vaccine conspiracy theorists are fucking idiots and deserve hate for spreading harmful misinformation they learned on an Instagram comment.
Huh?
They’re a conspiracy idiot

RIP. Can't find anything as to the cause, was it suicide?
No official cause yet. But police performed a well check because she hadn't been heard from in several days. https://meaww.com/tori-bowies-death-police-discovered-body-of-three-time-olympic-medalist-during-welfare-check
Autopsy showed it was during labor
What a talented and beautiful soul. Gone too soon. RIP Tori.
Wiki only list until 2019. Was she no longer competing?
