Greatest female sprinters of all time

#5 Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

Fraser-Pryce won gold in the 100m race in the 2008 and 2012 Olympics

The fourth fastest woman of all time, Shelly-Ann became the first Jamaican female to win an Olympic gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Games and successfully defended her title at the 2012 London Olympics, becoming only the third woman to consecutively win 100m events.

She was given the nickname, “Pocket Rocket”, because of her short stature and explosive starts. In the 2013 World Championships at Moscow, she became the first woman sprinter to claim the 100m, 200, and 4x100m relay titles in a single championship. Her personal best in the 100m is 10.70 seconds which was set in 2012 at Kingston, Jamaica.
