Distinction|OD]], [[Order of Jamaica|OJ]] ([[née]] '''Fraser'''; born December 27, 1986) is a Jamaican [[track and field]] [[Sprint (running)|sprinter]] competing in the [[60 metres|60&nbsp;metres]], [[100 metres|100&nbsp;m]] and [[200 metres|200&nbsp;m]]. She is widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters of all time. One of the most enduring track athletes in history, Fraser-Pryce's career spans over a decade and a half, from the late 2000s to the 2020s. Her success on the track, including her consistency at major championships, helped to usher in the golden age of [[Athletics in Jamaica|Jamaican sprinting]]. 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|five-time world champion]]. In the 200&nbsp;m, she has won gold and silver at the World Athletics Championships, as well as an Olympic silver medal. An eight-time Olympic medallist, she rose from relative obscurity 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 the third woman 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]]. Thirteen years after her first Olympic win, she [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres|won a silver medal]] at the [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics|2020 Tokyo Olympics]], becoming the first athlete to medal in the 100&nbsp;m at four consecutive Olympic Games. At the biennial [[World Athletics Championships]], Fraser-Pryce is one of the [[World Athletics Championships#Multiple medalists|most decorated]] athletes in history, winning ten gold and four silver medals. She is the only sprinter to [[100 metres at the World Athletics Championships#Multiple medalists 2|win five world titles]] in the 100&nbsp;m—in 2009, 2013, 2015, 2019, and 2022. Her win in 2019 made her the first mother [[1995 World Championships in Athletics – Women's 100 metres|in 24 years]] to claim a global 100&nbsp;m title,<ref name="NBCSports"/> while her win in 2022 at age 35 made her the [[100 metres at the World Athletics Championships#Age|oldest sprinter ever]] to become world champion.<ref name=123Sweep/> In 2013, she became the first woman to sweep the 100&nbsp;m, 200&nbsp;m and 4&nbsp;×&nbsp;100&nbsp;m at the same World Championship, and was voted the IAAF [[World Athlete of the Year]]. She also won the 60&nbsp;m [[World Athletics Indoor Championships|world indoor title]] in 2014, becoming the first ever female athlete to hold world titles in all four sprint events at the same time.<ref name=iaaf/> A dominant force in women's sprinting, Fraser-Pryce has won more global 100&nbsp;m titles{{refn|group=note|The [[Olympic Games]] and [[World Athletics Championships]] are the two global outdoor athletics championships at the elite senior level, compared to continental or regional championships like the [[Pan American Games]], [[Commonwealth Games]] or [[NACAC Championships]].}} than any other sprinter in history.<ref name=123Sweep/> Nicknamed the "Pocket Rocket" for her petite stature and explosive [[starting blocks|block starts]], her personal best of 10.60&nbsp;seconds makes her the [[100 metres#All-time top 25 women|third fastest woman ever]].

Distinction|OD]], [[Order of Jamaica|OJ]] ([[née]] '''Fraser'''; born December 27, 1986) is a Jamaican [[track and field]] [[Sprint (running)|sprinter]] competing in the [[60 metres|60&nbsp;metres]], [[100 metres|100&nbsp;m]] and [[200 metres|200&nbsp;m]]. She is widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters of all time. One of the most enduring track athletes in history, Fraser-Pryce's career spans over a decade and a half, from the late 2000s to the 2020s. Her success on the track, including her consistency at major championships, helped to usher in the golden age of [[Athletics in Jamaica|Jamaican sprinting]]. 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|five-time world champion]]. In the 200&nbsp;m, she has won gold and silver at the World Athletics Championships, as well as an Olympic silver medal. An eight-time Olympic medallist, she rose from relative obscurity 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 the third woman 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]]. Thirteen years after her first Olympic win, she [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres|won a silver medal]] at the [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics|2020 Tokyo Olympics]], becoming the first athlete to medal in the 100&nbsp;m at four consecutive Olympic Games. At the biennial [[World Athletics Championships]], Fraser-Pryce is one of the [[World Athletics Championships#Multiple medalists|most decorated]] athletes in history, winning ten gold and four silver medals. She is the only sprinter to [[100 metres at the World Athletics Championships#Multiple medalists 2|win five world titles]] in the 100&nbsp;m—in 2009, 2013, 2015, 2019, and 2022. Her win in 2019 made her the first mother [[1995 World Championships in Athletics – Women's 100 metres|in 24 years]] to claim a global 100&nbsp;m title,<ref name="NBCSports"/> while her win in 2022 at age 35 made her the [[100 metres at the World Athletics Championships#Age|oldest sprinter ever]] to become world champion.<ref name=123Sweep/> In 2013, she became the first woman to sweep the 100&nbsp;m, 200&nbsp;m and 4&nbsp;×&nbsp;100&nbsp;m at the same World Championship, and was voted the IAAF [[World Athlete of the Year]]. She also won the 60&nbsp;m [[World Athletics Indoor Championships|world indoor title]] in 2014, becoming the first ever female athlete to hold world titles in all four sprint events at the same time.<ref name=iaaf/> A dominant force in women's sprinting, Fraser-Pryce has won more global 100&nbsp;m titles{{refn|group=note|The [[Olympic Games]] and [[World Athletics Championships]] are the two global outdoor athletics championships at the elite senior level, compared to continental or regional championships like the [[Pan American Games]], [[Commonwealth Games]] or [[NACAC Championships]].}} than any other sprinter in history.<ref name=123Sweep/> Nicknamed the "Pocket Rocket" for her petite stature and explosive [[starting blocks|block starts]], her personal best of 10.60&nbsp;seconds makes her the [[100 metres#All-time top 25 women|third fastest woman ever]].
