Jamaican superstar Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce will be able to compete because her injury isn’t severe. She sustained an injury while competing at the World Athletics Championships yesterday.
The five-time world 100 metres champion was representing Jamaica in the women’s 4x100m final. The tournament happened in Budapest, Hungary.
The Jamaican quartet recorded a season’s best 41.21 seconds. This performance earned the Caribbean nation a silver medal. Fraser-Pryce’s teammates were forced to postpone their celebrations in order to attend to her injury.
According to reports in the media, the star is expected to recover without complications. Fraser-Pryce underwent numerous medical examinations that revealed that the injury is less severe than feared.
