Widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters of all time, she achieved worldwide success during the late 2000s and 2010s, helping to elevate [[Athletics in Jamaica|Jamaican athletics]] on the international scene. In the 100&nbsp;m, her signature event, she is a [[100 metres at the Olympics|two-time Olympic gold medallist]] and a [[100 metres at the World Championships in Athletics|four-time world champion]]. In the 200&nbsp;m, she has won an Olympic silver medal and World Championship gold. As of June 2021, she is the fastest woman alive with a 10.63&nbsp;s clocking in [[Kingston]]. A six-time Olympic medallist, Fraser-Pryce rose to prominence at the [[Athletics at the 2008 Summer Olympics|2008 Beijing Olympics]], becoming the first Caribbean woman to win [[Athletics at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres|gold in the 100&nbsp;m]]. At the [[Athletics at the 2012 Summer Olympics|2012 London Olympics]], she became one of only three women in history to [[Athletics at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres|defend an Olympic 100&nbsp;m title]]. After injury affected her season, she [[Athletics at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres|won bronze]] at the [[Athletics at the 2016 Summer Olympics|2016 Rio Olympics]], becoming the first female sprinter to win 100&nbsp;m medals at three consecutive Olympics. At the [[World Athletics Championships]], Fraser-Pryce is one of the [[World_Athletics_Championships#Multiple_medalists|most decorated]] athletes in history, winning ten gold (including one [[World Athletics Indoor Championships|indoor title]]) and two silver. She is the only person to win four world titles in the 100&nbsp;m—in 2009, 2013, 2015 and 2019. Her win in 2019 at the age of 32 made her the oldest female sprinter, and the first mother in 24 years, to claim a global 100&nbsp;m title. In 2013, she became the first woman to sweep the 100&nbsp;m, 200&nbsp;m and 4 × 100&nbsp;m at a single World Championship, and was voted the IAAF [[World Athlete of the Year]]. She added the 60&nbsp;m world indoor title in 2014, making her the only woman to hold World Championship titles in all four events at the same time. A dominant force in women's sprinting, Fraser-Pryce has won more global 100&nbsp;m titles than any other female sprinter in history.<ref name="iaaf.org"/> Nicknamed the "Pocket Rocket" for her petite stature and explosive [[starting blocks|block starts]], her personal best of 10.63 seconds is the [[100_metres#All-time_top_25_women|second fastest of all time]]. She has recorded 16 runs below 10.80&nbsp;s, the most for a female sprinter, and has posted the second most sub-11&nbsp;s clockings with over 50.
