Summary

Description

Memorial Van Damme, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (JAM), 100m, Olympic champion 2008, 2012, world champion 2009, 2013, 2015

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (born 27 December 1986; née Fraser) is a Jamaican track and field sprinter. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Fraser-Pryce ascended to prominence in the 2008 Olympic Games when at 21 years old, the relatively unknown athlete became the first Caribbean woman to win 100 m gold at the Olympics. In 2012, she successfully defended her 100m title, becoming the third woman to win two consecutive 100m events at the Olympics.

Fraser-Pryce won the 100m gold medal in the 2009 IAAF World Championships, becoming the second female sprinter to hold both World and Olympic 100 m titles simultaneously (after Gail Devers). In 2013 she became the first female sprinter to win gold medals in the 100 m, 200 m and 4x100 m in a single world championship. Fraser-Pryce is also the second woman ever to own the world titles at 60m, 100m and 200m simultaneously. Nicknamed the "pocket rocket" for her petite frame (she stands 5 feet tall) and explosive starts, she is ranked fourth on the list of the fastest 100 m female sprinters of all time, with a personal best of 10.70 seconds, set in Kingston, Jamaica in 2012.
