Will Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce clash with Elaine Thompson-Herah and Sha’Carri Richardson?

Well, the direct answer to that question is a simple no. However, despite her not clashing with Elaine and Sha’Carri, the Jamaican track legend Shelly-Ann will be there at Prefontaine Classic 2022. While Elaine and Sha’Carri will battle for the 100m title, the Olympic silver medalist will compete in the 200m.

Going into the race, Sha’Carri would wish to avoid the flashes of last year’s race. In the previous edition, she finished last. Whereas the Jamaican duo secured the first and second place, respectively. In the light of the same, Sha’Carri was heavily criticized on social media for her sloppy performance. However, Prefontaine Classic 2022 seems to be the perfect chance to get redemption.
