Six-time Olympic medalist Shelley-Ann Fraser-Price rose to prominence at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, becoming the first Caribbean woman to win gold in the 100 meter dash.
Fraser-Price wins 100m and 200m Jamaica Olympics He will head to Tokyo for his fourth Olympics in scintillating form in search of the Trials and his third Olympic gold medal.
Fraser-Price is probably in the best forms. He won the final of the 100m Olympic Trials in 10.71 s. She clocked a personal best of 21.79 seconds to win the 200 meters and complete the sprint double at the Jamaica Olympic Trials.
The London Olympics was Fraser-Price’s best Olympics ever, as she not only retained her 100m title but also added two more medals – silver in the 200m and 4x100m relay respectively.
He also won a silver medal in the 4x100m relay and a bronze in the 100m at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
In 2013, Fraser-Price recorded the three fastest 100m times and the two fastests in the 200m. She won six Diamond League races (four in the 100 m and two in the 200 m) throughout the season to win the Diamond League title for both events.
Due to his achievements on the track throughout the season, he was named the IAAF World Athlete of the Year in 2013. She was the second Jamaican woman to receive this honor after Marilyn Otte in 1990.
Fraser-Price, 34, won her fourth world title in the 100 meters in 2019, two years after having son Zion. Prior to this, she had won 100m world titles in 2009, 2013 and 2015.
The years 2010 and 2011 did not go well for Fraser-Price, as she was handed a six-month suspension at the Shanghai Diamond League after her urine sample tested positive for oxycodone.
Later in 2011, Fraser-Price’s career was interrupted by a calf injury that prevented her from competing in the Jamaica National Championships. Incredibly, the 2011 World Championships in Daegu remains Fraser-Price’s only appearance at the world event where she did not win the 100m gold.
Usain Bolt has backed Fraser-Price to win his third Olympic 100m title at the Tokyo Games.
Beware Shelley Ann Fraser-Price at the Tokyo Olympics.
