Jamaican
sprint dominance of the Bird's Nest as she retained her world 100m
title in blistering fashion at the World Championships.
Twenty-four hours on from
Usain Bolt's triumph in the men's 100m,
Fraser-Pryce repeated her Olympic victory in this same stadium
seven years ago as she held off the fast-finishing Dafne Schippers in
10.76 seconds.
For Schippers - the former heptathlete who only decided
to switch full-time to sprinting in June this year - her silver in a
huge personal best of 10.81 brought both vindication and wild
celebration.
USA's Tori Bowie took bronze in 10.86, but as in 2008 this was the Fraser-Pryce show.
