Paris Olympics: Julien Alfred Shocks Richardson For 100m Crown As Fraser-Pryce Pulls Out (Ld)
Ann Fraser Pryce: Julien Alfred pulled off a stunning victory in the Stade de France, beating race favourite Sha’Carri Richardson to women's 100m gold in 10.72 seconds and giving Saint Lucia its first Olympic medal in the history of the Games.
The women's 100m has a new champion for the first time since Athens 2004 after Jamaican sprint legend Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce withdrew from the semifinal with an injury.
Alfred dedicated the win to her late father who died 11 years ago. "Most importantly, God, my coach, and lastly, my dad, who believed that I could do it. He passed away in 2013, and now he couldn’t get to see me on the biggest stage of my career. But he’ll always be so boastful of his daughter being an Olympian."
