Fraser-Pryce for JN Racers Grand Prix

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has been added to the women’s 100m line-up for Saturday’s (9 June) JN Racers Grand Prix, set for the National Stadium in Kingston.

Fraser-Pryce, who ran 11.33 at last weekend’s Cayman Invitational (2 June), her first international race in over a year since giving birth, will face a strong field.

The Beijing 2008 and London 2012 Olympic 100m champion will face World champion Tori Bowie of the United States.
