Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce begins final Olympic dance with shaky win in Jamaica

In her first race since the 2023 World Championships in Budapest, sprint legend Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce began her final Olympic dance at the JAAA Olympic French Foray in Kingston, Jamaica by winning the women's 100m event.

The 37-year-old having won a bronze medal in the Hungarian capital, announced earlier in the season that the Paris Games, will be her last outing as a professional track athlete.

With much anticipation since then on when she'll be making her season's debut, Fraser-Pryce finally put all doubts to rest when she lined up on the track to the excitement of fans around the world.

She recovered from a poor start smoothly and stormed to the finish line in a respectable 11.15s (0.8m/s) as Jodeen Williams finished second in 11.20s and Sabrina Dockery was third in 11.46s.

The five-time world champion who'll be making her final track appearance at the Paris Olympic Games delayed her season's debut until now, just less than two months before the start of the prestigious showpiece.

Fraser-Pryce will be gunning to hit her top form ahead of the Jamaican Olympic trials, where she'll be targeting a spot in the team to Paris and cap off her glorious career with a memorable outing at the Games.
