Fraser-Pryce, the reigning world champion in the 100m, consistently displays exceptional skills and unwavering determination on the track, accumulating impressive achievements.
She is a two-time Olympic champion, winning the gold medal in the 100-meter race in 2008 and 2012. She is also a five-time World Athletics Champion, winning in 2009, 2013, 2015, 2019, and 2022.
Additionally, she won a gold medal as a Jamaican Olympic 4x100m relay team member in Japan in 2021.
The 36-year-old athlete has dominated her competitors throughout her illustrious career and achieved ten astonishing world titles.
Reports suggest that she is in exemplary shape and may challenge the time run earlier this month by Jamaican athlete Shericka Jackson.
Jackson, the world silver medalist, currently holds the fastest time in the women’s 100m event in 2023 with her personal best of 10.65 seconds.
American Sha’carri Richardson is ranked closely behind Jackson with a personal best of 10.71 seconds this season. She remains one of the top contenders for the gold medal at the upcoming World Athletics Championships.
