When Jamaica’s 100m world and Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce noticed that Mo Farah had misplaced a father or mother’s race to a dad sporting denims, she should have determined she was not going to be embarrassed like Farah. Fraser-Pryce attended her son’s monitor and area day and completely placed on a clinic, beating the opposite dad and mom by almost 50 metres.
Fraser-Pryce has run 10.60 seconds, and is the third quickest lady in historical past behind Florence Joyner-Griffith’s world file of 10.49, and her compatriot, defending Olympic champion Elaine Thompson-Herah (10.54).
In 2022, Fraser-Pryce gained her tenth world championship title within the 100m and likewise was topped Diamond League champion. She shattered 10.70 seconds seven instances through the 2022 season.
Fraser-Pryce, nicknamed the “Pocket Rocket,” is thought for her talent and velocity out of the blocks. She put her velocity on the show for all the opposite dad and mom, getting out to a commanding 30 to 40-metre lead from the gun.
The 36-year-old, two-time Olympic 100m champion is thought to be fairly aggressive. Throughout a pre-Diamond League meet press convention final 12 months, she brazenly challenged Swedish pole-vaulter Mondo Duplantis to a 100m race after a reporter requested who was sooner.
We’ll assume Fraser-Pryce had much more at stake than Farah, whose most well-liked distance is between 12 and 25 laps of the monitor. Should you’re the 100m world champion, you’ll be able to’t take any possibilities and should do all the pieces it takes to defend your title–even off the monitor.
