Fraser-Pryce confirms season's debut at Jamaica Trials

The road to a sixth world 100m title for Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce will begin at the Jamaica Trials from July 6th - 9th after confirming she'll be in Kingston.

Fraser-Pryce affirmed this with a post on her Facebook page.

“Just a girl from Waterhouse who continues to dream and believe! See you at National Trials.”

The reigning world champion was scheduled to compete in her first race of the year at the Kip Keino Classic in Nairobi but withdrew due to sustaining an injury in her warm-up sessions.

Fraser-Pryce has a wild card to compete in the 100m at the World Championships in Budapest as the world champion, so may opt to compete in the 200m in Jamaica.

Fraser-Pryce will be looking forward to starting her season with a brilliant time as she fine-tunes preparations for a successful title defense in Budapest.
