'Return of the Big 3' - Track fans demand Fraser-Pryce, Thompson-Herah, and Shericka Jackson's comeback for outdoor season
Jamaica's Big 3 of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Elaine Thompson-Herah, and Shericka Jackson remain fans' favourite they look forward to watching perform at their best again, despite not being in their best forms for over two years.
World's fastest woman alive Thompson-Herah tops the list having had one of the most heartbreaking past two seasons any athlete could face in their career.
She has been plagued with injuries, coaching problems, and the dagger of not making the Jamaican individual 100m team to the 2023 World Championships and withdrawing from the Paris Olympic trials after sustaining an Achilles tendon injury at the NYC Grand Prix.
Likewise, Fraser-Pryce and Jackson have had injury problems in the past year, which saw them sadly withdraw from the Paris Olympic Games, despite making the Jamaican team.
However, despite these saddening situations, track fans still believe in the comeback of their sprint queens and can't wait for her return this season.
In a public throwout question tweeted by popular track and field X page @TrackGazzette, he put out a post asking: "OUTDOOR SZN!! Name that one athlete/event you're looking forward to in 2025?"
With several athletes popping out, their names mostly echoed as loyal fans can't wait for their comebacks to dominate the women's sprint division like they did in the past.
