Fraser Price, who passed the preliminary round in a purple wig yesterday (17th), showed an explosive run today wearing a wig dyed with the yellow and green colors of the Jamaican flag.
As she battled hard with her Jamaican teammates, she stepped forward little by little and exerted a terrifying backseat, being the first to cross the finish line with her contest record at 10.67.
Fraser Price, mother of five years old, surprised her world track record with a record faster than her pre-natal record of 10.70.
She is the fifth gold medalist in her career, the most for both men and women in the 100m.
At 152 cm tall, she is the shortest of her finalists and the oldest at 36, but she made history with her unique style of running with her chin raised while waving her wavy hair.
[Fraser Price (36 years old, height 152cm): I keep maintaining a healthy body.
If your body and mind are healthy, you can reach your goals.
Even after age 30, there is no limit at all.]
Sherika Jackson placed second, Elaine Thompson, who achieved two consecutive Olympic victories in Rio and Tokyo, placed third, and Jamaican athletes swept gold, silver and bronze medals for the first time ever. I did.
Fraser Price also competes for gold in the 200m and 400m relays.
