Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce returns on the track in 2025

Jamaican veteran Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce will return to the track in 2025, the three-time Olympic champion announced on social media. This is expected to be her final year as an active athlete.

The 10-time world champion said she would compete for another year, writing on Instagram that she had “unfinished business”.

“Time will pay tribute to your greatness”, added Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce in her post.

She won back-to-back Olympic 100m titles in 2008 and 2012, and her last Olympics was Paris 2024. Her run ended in disappointment last year in Paris when she missed the 100m semifinals after suffering an injury in her warm-up.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest sprinters in history. Her remarkable career has spanned over 15 years, beginning in the late 2000s and continuing into the 2020s, making her one of the most enduring athletes in track and field. Her impressive performances, particularly her reliability in major competitions, have played a significant role in the emergence of a golden era for Jamaican sprinting. In her primary event, the 100 meters, she has secured two Olympic gold medals and five world championship titles. Additionally, in the 200 meters, she has earned both gold and silver medals at the World Athletics Championships, along with an Olympic silver medal.
