Meet: Shelly-Ann the fastest woman in the world.


Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is the fastest woman in the world. Again.

Fraser-Pryce won the women’s 100m on Sunday night at the 2022 World Track and Field Championships in Eugene, Oregon, in a championship record of 10.67 seconds. In doing so, the 35-year-old becomes the first athlete to win five world titles in an individual running event, as well as the oldest world champion in an individual event on the track.

Fraser-Pryce led a Jamaican sweep of the women’s 100m podium, with Shericka Jackson claiming silver in 10.73 (personal best) and Elaine Thompson-Herah picking up bronze in 10.81. (A video highlight of the women’s.


The three Jamaican women also swept the podium at last year’s Tokyo Olympics, though in a different order (Thompson-Herah, Fraser-Pryce, Jackson). All three are also slated to compete in the 200m — as well as the 4x100m relay — later this week at Hayward Field.
