The Jamaican sprinter Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce won the women’s 100m final in a time of 10.76sec to claim gold at the World Athletics Championships in Beijing.

Fraser-Pryce, who was the heavily-tipped favourite and who won the 2009 and 2013 world 100m titles, matched her compatriot Usain Bolt’s feat by winning a third world 100m gold.


The reigning Olympic 100m champion, competing with her dyed green braided hair replete with a garland of yellow flowers, was pushed hard by the European champion, Dafne Schippers, who finished strongly to record a Dutch national record time of 10.81.

“I get tired of 10.7s, honestly,” Fraser-Pryce said. “Hopefully, my next race, I’ll get it together.”

Earlier, Fraser-Pryce had coasted into the final in a time of 10.82, ensuring she had energy in reserve for the main event.

Schippers, a former heptathlete, had vowed to go faster after finishing just a hundredth of a second behind Fraser-Pryce in the semi-finals. She was true to her word but was just not quick enough after a slower start.

“So happy! It’s a national record, I’m second in the world, it’s crazy,” said Schippers. “I was a little bit nervous in the semi-finals, and after that I think, OK, I’m in the final, anything is possible. My start was good, I thought I was close enough to medal. Wow!”

Tori Bowie of the USA won bronze with a time of 10.86. “Of course, we all want the gold medal, but it’s a stepping stone,” said the 24-year-old. “I’ll come back even better next year.”
