Early Years

On December 27, 1986, Orane Fraser and Maxine Simpson welcomed Shelly-Ann Fraser into the world in Kingston's Waterhouse neighborhood. Her mother, a former athlete who was a street vendor, reared her along with her two boys from an early age; she proved her talent as a sprinter and began running barefoot in elementary school. She wasn't sure if she wanted to be a track and field athlete throughout her time at Wolmer's High School for Girls.

She won the 200-meter title in 25.35 seconds at the Jamaican Under-18 Championships in 2002. Later that year, at Bridgetown, Barbados, she helped the Jamaican junior team in winning the gold in the 4 × 100-meter relay at the Central American and Caribbean Junior Championships. She placed third in the 100 meters in 11.73 seconds at the 2005 CARIFTA Games in Tobago and Trinidad. She also won a gold medal in the 4 × 100 m relay.

In 2007, Fraser-Pryce started to see success at the senior national and international levels. In June, at the Jamaican National Senior Championships, she set a new personal best of 11.31 seconds while placing fifth in the 100 meters.

Olympics Career

Fraser-Pryce won her semifinal at the Olympics in Rio, setting a new season's best time of 10.88 seconds to advance to the final with Thompson. She was obviously uncomfortable, too, as she walked off the track and cried after her semifinal. She got out to a fast start in the 100-meter final, finishing in a season-best 10.86 seconds to take home the medal.

Fraser-Pryce declared at the beginning of 2017 that she was expecting a child and would not be competing for her championship at the 2017 World Championships in London. In eleven weeks, she was back at training. Her early sessions, though, proved harder than she had thought.

She finally broke 11 seconds in July 2018, her ninth race since going back in the race, winning the London Grand Prix with a time of 10.98 s. Later on, she participated in the 2018 Athletics World Cup, where she helped the Jamaican team place second behind Great Britain in the 4 × 100 m event.
