The Kip Keino Classic 2022 saw one of the most anticipated races in the 100-meters. Jamaica’s Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce dominated the race and won it comfortably. Thus, she is back with a bang, aiming to get back on top of the list. As the 2022 World Athletics Championships is just around the corner, this victory provides a monumental boost to her chances.

US sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson withdrew from the competition and did not appear for the race. On the other hand, Christine Mboma, another favorite pulled out of the competition after suffering an injury. Yet again, Fraser-Pryce shows her class even at the age of 35.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce dominates the 100-meters

Coming into the race by being the woman with the third-fastest time, Fraser-Pryce looked incredible. She set a time of 10.67 into -0.4 headwind and finished the race incredibly well. This is the sixth fastest time in the 100-meters race. Second place went to Bassant Hemida with a time of 11.02. The bronze went to Shannon Ray from the USA as she set a time of 11.33.

Her time of 10.67 seconds is the fastest this year, and she certainly started off the blocks in fine fashion. Her rival Christine Mboma suffered a possible hamstring injury and was stretchered off the track. But, the Pocket Rocket once again showed her class. She raced past her opponents and finished the race stunningly.

No signs of slowing down

Despite being 35, she is one of the best sprinters in the world. At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she once again showed her class and won the silver medal. After that, she set the third-fastest time and personal best of 10.60 seconds Athletissima Diamond League meet in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Hitting form at the right time, it is interesting to see her at the World Championships. As of right now, she has nine World Championship gold medals and will certainly be looking for her 10th. Wanting to accomplish her goals and break the world record, Fraser-Pryce is locked in.
