This year’s 100m race tracks witnessed the pinnacle of athletics. With multiple new records set all over the world by top-tier athletes including Sha’Carri Richardson. However, with the beginning of her continental tour, the 100m race sprinter has been struggling on the European track. Recently the LSU star also lost her first race of the championship. Adding to this, the Jamaican 100-meter race legend’s comeback will certainly not help Richardson on the tracks.

Shelly-Ann-Fraser Pryce is making her debut in the track and field 100m title at the Spitzen Leichtathletik Luzern, Switzerland. The three-time Olympic legend after suffering a knee injury, did not participate in many events but is ready to bring more excitement to the 2023 championship. The Spitzen Leichtathletik Luzern is an annual event held in Switzerland since 1987. This year the event will be held on July 20th, where Jamaican athlete Shelly-Ann Frase-Pryce will also be running her first 100m race of 2023. Recently, Frase-Pryce was also seen taking a stroll on the Swiss tracks.

On July 19, a fan posted pictures of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce on Twitter, captioned “5x 100m World Champion Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce is pictured in Luzern ahead of her 100m opener set for tomorrow,” highlighting the athlete’s dominance over 100-meter tracks. In the picture, Fraser-Pryce was seen walking on the tracks wearing bright pink leggings. In the second photo, the athlete was also seen smiling for the camera.

Shelly-Ann-Fraser-Pryce had decided to participate in her first 100-meter event in Spain on July 22. However, the athlete changed her plans and is now making her debut two days early on the Swiss tracks. The Luzen event organizers also expressed their excitement for Jamaican athletes’ participation, as they stated, “What an honor to welcome Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce at Spitzen Leichtathletik Luzern 2023.”

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has not participated in many races this year as the five-time world champion injured her knee while training two months ago. The Jamaican athlete also had to withdraw from the Absa Kip Kieno Classic event in Kenya and finally participated in the 2023 championship in a 200-meter race. Now the athlete is ready to join the 100-meter title and give competition to her track rival, Sha’Carri Richardson, who recently lost her first race of the championship.

Sha’Carri Richardson lost her first race of 2023.

On July 18, Sha’Carri Richardson faced her first defeat of the season in the Gyulai István Memorial event in Hungary. The sprinter lost to Julien Alfred, a collegiate sprinter who finished the race in 10.89 seconds. While the LSU star, due to her weak start, finished the race in second place in 10.97 seconds. Many fans criticized Sha’Carri Richardson for overdoing it at the USATF 2023 championship and for starting the race weak.

Richardson was also believed to lose her 2022 USTF championship due to her weak start. And now with Shelly-Ann-Fraser-Pryce joining the 100-meter race, Richardson will indeed face harder competition for this year’s USATF championship as well.
