Shelly Ann has made Jamaicans so proud ...no disappointment ...just love ...
That’s right. We love her nevertheless!!❤
🇯🇲
I think the disappointment is on Paris Olympics as a whole
Love Shelly ❤️ she has done way beyond ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nah, we’re definitely disappointed 😂.
I still cant believe Ive had the privilege of meeting and talking to her, then she came to our table and greeted us again, what an honour, shout out from Kenya
Had a couple classes with her in college. She's just as nice as everyone says she is. Even without everyone watching.
Im a huge sports fan from Kenya. Rugby, NFL, UFC, boxing, Athletics as my main staple. Intentionally being in the stadium in Kasarani and seeing Shelly-Ann run will remain one of my proudest moments. One of the greatest athletes of any generation. No argument.
UP KENYA!!
@@jimmyandtheresurrection7247Too bad Team Kenya did so poorly this Olympics turn, especially the total embarrassment steeple chase event 🙄
Literally the saddest part of sports this year for me. She WOULD HAVE medaled. Making it 5 straight games with medals. Such a shame.
She definitely would've!!!!
Legendary ❤@@josam4545
You can't see into the future, no one knows if she would have metaled or not.
@@Xx-po1fu if you do some pretty basic math, you can tell she would’ve gotten in a medal without any issue. The bronze medal was achieved in 10.92 seconds a.k.a. the exact time that price ran in the opening race - while not even giving it 100%. She would’ve gotten the metal buddy.
@@Xx-po1fubraindead
We also have to be clear that Alfred ran a spectacular race and completely deserving of her gold medal
You got THAT RIGHT!!!!! Totally agree!
TRUE, but would have been more interesting to see otherwise.
Thank you.
People are talking like Alfred is not significante in this.
She’s overshadowed by the cheating and that’s just what it is.
@@LolaDc7ok
I was STUNNED to see ShellyAnn's lane empty. It's an unfortunate end to her amazing career, but she knows her body. Shelly-Ann's legendary status remains intact for me!! I hope she heals and spends precious time with her family now❤️
Not neccessarily an end. She could compete again if she wants. If she let's her leg heal. The oldest competitor in this year's Olympics was 59. She is 37. She could skip next Olympics if she needs to and compete then. 45 is not out of the question to compete, just makes it harder.
It was heartbreaking to see
I just love how you and your team continuously give Shelly Ann her flowers!!! 🌸
SAFP is unmatched in consistency and longevity as a sprinter. A once in a lifetime talent
France olympics gots cursed after opening ceremony.
Totally Got That Right!!!!!!!
😅😅k😅😅😅@@2ScarletSnow
Yeah I wonder why, couldn't be anything to do with the gear Jamaican athlete's take could it???
definitely in terms or qualifying, but Merlene Ottey beats her in longevity
Shelly Ann is simply the most dominant sprinter of all time. I am sad she didn't run one last Olympic finals race but nothing for her to prove She's the G.O.A.T.
you mean one of the most dominant dopers of all time. 🙂
Her time is up.
You spelled flo Jo wrong lol
Oh sht up will ya
the most dominant FEMALE sprinter of all time let’s not play in usain bolt’s name
The increase in injuries over the last two years are accumulated wear and tear and a sign age is catching up.
It was a pity she had to withdraw but she has nothing to prove... the best female sprinter we have ever seen.
More like a sign of all the steroids she has taken...
@bowhunter8532 you do know they get tested for that right? Stop the nonsense
@@edithart5753people just love to spread hate and none factual BS! We with common sense know they’re all tested but others don’t care for facts! Sad
@@edithart5753 I'm not going to say someone has or hasn't used any PEDs, but saying people get tested sounds pretty ignorant. People spend a lot of time, just coming up with ways for athletes not to get caught... There's stuff that doesn't even show up in tests, because they don't test for everything under the sun.
@@edithart5753yes they are tested but ALL athletes are allowed to take substances that are not on the banned substances list. Every year new substances are added to the list and athletes have to start taking new substances if what they take gets added to the list. It is not only possible but very likely that she has been taking LEGAL PEDs her entire career (why wouldn’t she as an Olympic athlete)
Congratulations Shelly-Ann I thank you for representing our country with your extraordinary gift you did not only the nation proud but the entire world in addition you always give God the glory both on and off the field you are an ambassador it was a privilege meeting you in person at Mystic Mountain your personality is amazing and you will forever be our golden girl in my eyes thank you for sharing your God given gift with us for working and perfecting your craft for knowing when to push and when not to so on behalf of the beautiful Island of Jamaica WE APPRECIATE YOU May whatever your future endeavors be blessed beyond measures One love🎉🎉🎉YOU ARE A WINNER
Amén 🥹🙏🏽
Big love Jamaica. Shelly-Ann the Greatest
Hard to believe that we didn't see Elaine, Shericka or Shelly-Anne even compete in the semi-finals of the 100 metres.
Sad to see that not a single 100m medalist in Tokyo even ran in the semis.
Should've never happened. Shelly was not honored in her final Olympics. She deserves am apology from the Olympic Committee

@@lemondrop7305you must not be very bright
@@josam4545 get over it
So disappointed not to see this legendary sprinter run,always a delight to watch...
Tragic outcome but she will forever remain one of the greatest of all time 🏅
She was threatened to sit out because she was a threat to Shacarri.
You are wrong @NitaJain. She isn't one of the greatest of all time. She IS the greatest of all time. No one has matched her accomplishment or longevity. We were blessed to have witnessed her greatness.
@@TA-ht4jo keep dreaming
@@delariva69 in terms of accomplishment Elaine Thompson is more formidable. Longevity I agree though
greatest doper of all time, pretty much the model of every Jamaican sprinter
As a fellow Jamaican im so proud of her and my country.
She is 37years old and still competing. Wow!!!
Ummmm, the best BOXING and MMA fighters are older than her. And so many more extreme athletes. Sooooo, 37 is old?
37 is not old. That’s when most women hit their prime. I wouldn’t be surprised if she comes back in LA28 at 41 🔥 you can be at any age and still at the Olympics.
@@brownbeastoftheleaf3215 boxing and sprinting its 2 different sports
Such a shame, she was definitely a medal threat
She was meant to be on that podium
Exactly
No she wasn’t. Her numbers have been on the decline. Sad what happened tho, but Ms Alfred is the new star unquestionably
@@xlz4258 he meant the podium, not the gold medal
She was gonna win Silver
I actually cried . watching Shelly smile before a 100m final is my favourite event at the olympics .
God bless her. She's one of the greatest theirs ever been. Godspeed to her 🥉🇯🇲❤️🇺🇸🥉
Not a glorious end but her legacy is already secured. May her greatness inspire the new generation to do their best.
This saddens me to no end.
Beautiful presentation. Insightful looks at a potential winner of the Men's 100 and the clarification on Shell-Ann's no show for the semi was great. It was clean and unbiased making the viewing that more enjoyable. Thanks for the great work done and will check out for more of your uploads.
Really sad. This marks the end of an era.
Makes you really see and appreciate the effort that how great and Shelly and Elaine is/was.
She's 37!! What more do people want??? She shouldn't have even been here. She's done enough. Go home and relax.
@@Nyabennah sorry but we just love Shelly so much that everyone was hoping to see her. Unfortunately she's injured and we send her all her love
@@ooo-fg8bp I'll miss looking at that fine woman run too. Great career.....now rest.
@@Nyabennaha lot of people paid a lot of money to just see her 🤦🏾♂️
The stress and strain on your body must be enormous when competing at highest levels. Respect to the medical people who keep these guys going at that level despite injury.
She is the best of the best…can’t nobody take that away from her…she has served her country well. Congrats gal and enjoy life.
One love Jamaica 🇯🇲
A lot of people think because you can sprint at 70% effort, that you should be able to sprint at 90% effort. Both are worlds different.
Paris olympics was cursed after their ceremony. Shelly out, Herah, Jackson out, Talou injured.
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is a spectacular athletic. I was looking forward to see her run. In injuries both physical and mental happen and sometimes at the wrong time. Biles came came lets hope Shelly-Ann can recover and return.
This is so sad, I wanted to see her and Richardson go head to head, would have been epic
Richardson? She wouldn’t even have placed for a medal.
@@dariogomez8521 She ran a poor race - awful start and still got Sliver - wtf you talking abt^^....
@@blaze1148exactly and how much more pressure would she have felt if a big dawg like Shelly Anne was on that track…a bad start would’ve been the least of her worries 🤷🏾♂️
@@dariogomez8521 SAFP wouldn't have medaled. That's why she copped out.
@@Smitty089 ....she would of at least got Bronze.....so medalled either way.
I was so sad she didn't run the final, she's so awesome
Congratulations Julien Alfred. I called it. Peope were sleeping on Alfred. She paid 7-1 odds. After her 200m against Thomas, she displayed great form but just came up short and didn't have the steam to finish in 1st place. It made me think she would have plenty of pace in the 100m. Alfred will medal in the 200m and will be the future double champion imo.
Double is a stretch
she won't double , stop dreaming
@@BlueHopi144she can't be a future double champion?
Haha she ain’t being double nothing, Shacarri is better
@@sarahomoba9407 So explain why Sha'carri was eating dust
Making a 37 year old veteran change up the routine and rush the warm up routine is basically the perfect formula for an injury no?
She wasn't the only one. People compete under the same conditions. They make no exceptions for people because of their age. She was just unlucky to get injured. Yesterday I saw two other athletes having to quit because of injury during warm ups. In high jump and pole vault. They were young athletes. Sheer bad luck.😢injury can happen at any time and it's always the wrong time
Yes
Bruh as 23 years old yes i was born in 2001 but put that aside as 23 years old I couldn't sprint the same was as I did when I was 19 to 20 like im getting too old to run around like that when I was a kid I was sprinting when I was 8 to 21 between 2009 to 2022 but at 2024 I decide im too old lol
@@roddo1955well at 37 to 59 is middle age and yes she a middle age lady at this point she too old to sprint can't be like when she was 34 at Tokyo
@@hanphilnoffz8827who gave you that definition,.middle age is effectively 40-70 never heard of 37 being classed as MA
This is crazy, I’m rooting for Shacarri but when I heard Shelly Ann wasn’t gonna be there I was in shock
Same
Sorry for ann am disappointed
Thank you for this video!! I was wondering why Shelly wasn’t in the race! I’m sorry she couldn’t finish her career running a race that’s always dominated. We love you Shelly!!!! 🙏🏽🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
😭
I’ll miss her incredible smile
I’m SO HAPPY to see Ms. Alfred won🥇#2& 3 were not even close
BAD START FOR SHACARRIE, ALFRED GOT DUSTED IN THAT 200 METERS, NOT EVEN CLOSE.......USA
Womp womp womp 😂@@twintopper8659
this is so sad i literally heard about this in the morning poor shelly 😔
Thank you for clearing that up. I like the way you praised and humanized these athletes. Reminding us that the Road for an Olympic Athlete takes a huge physical and mental toll on them.
Thanks again.
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce made a smart move by not running in the semifinals. Her legacy was already secure. Plus, she knew the next generation of sprinters is on another stratosphere. By stepping aside, she preserved her health and understood the nature of the game. I don’t think she will run the 200m, so focusing on the 4x100 is a great way to pass the baton, giving it one last go with these newer athletes.
She was not running 200m, u have no clue. Shelly not weak like u , she has been battling hamstring injury all season.
Another stratosphere? Naaaa. She just realised that she needed to give others a chance for them to grow. That's the wisdom of a true champion.
Did you not listen to the report? She ran 10.92 in the semi-final. That's what the bronze medallist did in the final. Usually athletes don't go all in the semis.
@@Vico649 lmao, thank you for agreeing with me.
@@ZoroasterIII lmao did you not listen to the report? She didn't run the semi....
I love her personality always smiling , i wish her a speedy recovery
Queen Shelly is the GREATEST female sprinter in history, and I hope she gets to end it on her own accord.
The 100m final is not complete without shally anne. Hope we see her compete again. She is the greatest . ❤
NOT TRUE, NOT THE GREATEST SPRINNTER EVER. ALLYSON IS THE MOST DECORATED SPRINTER MAN OR WOMEN. MEDALLEDD MORE THAN ANY SPRINTER, SO THAT IS NOT TRUE, NOT EVEN CLOSE. IF SHE WAS ALL THAT, WHY DID'NT SHE BREAK FLOJO'S RECORD??
Flo jo is the greatest.
Best ever, been watching her for years. Was really hoping she make it to finals
I was so disappointed 😪
Gabby is such an inspiration and I am certainly not surprised shes a woman of faith. Shes a Neurologist, donates her time free to work in a clinic, and she so Talented, kind, and beautiful. I am glad their are still role models like her out there.
Such a sad exit to a legend. This feild was competely depleted feild without sherika and shelly ann.
My prayers go out to Ms. Fraser-Pryce. Get well soon, Blessings to you and your family ❤️👏🏽🫂🥰🙌🏾🙏🏽🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
SAINT-DENIS, France - Jamaican star Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was scratched from the women's 100 meters just before her semifinal race due to an injury she sustained during warm-ups. Jamaican chef de mission Ian Kelly told Reuters Fraser-Pryce was injured after a delay getting into the stadium
ใครทำ ? Who do ???🏅 Accident ???🏅
I love this lady and it was a tragedy that I couldn’t see her one last time
Now you know history was made. A true legend “Julien Alfred” 🇱🇨. Bro where’s the video of her??
Shelly Anne, I sure did miss watching her run. She is awesome!! I’ve been watching her for yrs. Sending prayers her way 🙏 Thank you for all your hard work Shelly Anne 👏👏
And sometimes the extra walk, the anxiety of reaching the warm up late the rush to get warm for the race could have led to this outcome. She was at a dis advantage given the circumstances.
Yea welcome to Paris where the Olympics are trash
Could they have hitchhiked?
Richardson also had an issue getting in as well.
@@cjcurtis8944 and i had her to win, but she lost, qhat r u trying to say.
@@razzalee305 just that both had a “late rush to warm up” but both had a different outcomes. Meaning that I don’t think the late situation had an impact on SFP. My heart breaks for her. She’d have been on the podium. I wanted to Richardson to win too, but Alfred looked better at each stage and Richardson had another bad start, which is her bugaboo.
Julian Alfred champion in the making 🇱🇨🥳🥳. So proud to be from Saint Lucia 🇱🇨❤️
G.O.A.T..no disappointment , ❤🇯🇲
MAYBE IN THE OPINION OF ANOTHR JAMAICAN. THE EXPERTS DO NOT AGREE. SHE WAS GOOD IN HER CAREER THOUGH. TIME TO GIIVE UP THOSE CLEETS.
I've waited years for moments like this! I HURT😩
Yes please explain cause this was just outrageous and unexpected
U r clueless, she has been battling injury all season. So called fans know nothing.
@michelelewis-mx4ty I been knew she was injured I commented that comment before I even started to click this video and WE ALLL didn't know that she was injured during warm up we was saw her walking so u can keep ur own comment to urself
I didn't know what happened to her. You are so rude. Alot of people don't know. Try kindness. People are already suffering in this world...why add to it ?
Being I am for sure a US women’s track fan I really love her work I was shocked and saddened she was not running.
Breaks my heart. I'm a U.S. citizen and I was rooting for a gold for her. Sad.
Gold wasn't truly in the cards ......
I hope she is ok. Thank you for always giving your best to your sport. Really appreciate your gifts.
These women are all phenomenal!!!!!
We're sad ... imagine how she must feel. Shelly you'll always be in my heart. You're amazing.
They said it wasn’t her health but something behind the scenes with the Olympics themselves. Something to do with the transportation and her taking a private car. They wouldn’t allow her entrance with warm up and practice. Something definitely wasn’t right in this situation, she always shows up.
Watch the video, mate
Not always
That semifinal was always going to be way too hot !
She is undeniably the goat!! Blessed to have witnessed her run live. It will be a long time before we see another talent like this.
I'll be honest I don't think anyone was going to beat Alfred, she came to play or in this case run.
Exactly.! I’m a Jamaican and even if Shelly was competing, I was positive that Alfred would have taken the Gold!! Remember Shelly is 37 with a few past injuries. Alfred is young n strong like a stallion.!!! ❤ Well done to you my dear…you deserved it!👏🏼👏🏼
Pretty Much!!!! As the saying goes>Who Wants It More>...JA!
I waited so long to see her in action.they knew what she would have done.🎉🎉🎉
I hope she is recovers sufficiently to complete in the 4x100m relay but she remains the GOAT of the women’s 100m even if she doesn’t.

Not disappointed at all i love her everything... she did us proud no matter what she is a God sent. Shelly, i dont know if you will ever see this, but we love you so much, and thank you.
I missed her in the line up of the finale. Thanks for explaining what had been going on. Get well soon, SAFP. Cheers from NL.
Her contribution to the sport is immeasurable,and will always be remembered.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for clearing up all this madness. 👏👏👏
The rumor mill was on Max there for awhile... lol
SFP is the GOAT for women's Sprinting and it's very sad that this transpired.... but like you said, sometimes that's what happens in sports. Especially in Athletics.
Cheers... 👍
Don't u think the extra walk for Shelly and Shacarri affected them??
@@hestonboothe5307I think it did, I didn't understand the basis of such an obsession with rules at that point. It was heartless in my view.
As an African I have never really been a fan of France or many of these Colonial states. But even I'll admit this time they done took it to another level. Takes the "cake" ...
@@hestonboothe5307 Maybe with Sha'carri?? Shelley was nursing an injury so it really didn't matter, she wasn't running it regardless.
Either way, No one was catching Alfred on this day.... she was simply in the best form.
37 year old SAFP, is a legend and she made an unforgettable marj in the history of athletics
This broke my heart
Shelly is a forever favorite , there is nothing better .. one of the most incredible stories in human history . Broke my heart to see she couldnt do her one last race , that she worked so hard for.
Reminds of Bolts last race.
I was also a sprinter and had an injury during what was supposed to be a victorious time of becoming the state champion, i was soo close. Sometimes life is unfair like that ... its so extremely gutwrenching . But to have ended it all with an injury would have been much worse . I will always celebrate Shelly !!!!!
~ BODY WHOLENESS & MEDALless IS
G🥇LD. ~
I was looking forward to cheering you on shellz,however your health is most important than anything else so I wish you a speedy recovery 🙏🏿 💜💛🇯🇲🇳🇬 we luv you same way .... blessings 🙌🏿
Honesty this dude really loves Shelly. We all do too. ❤
WE ALL LOVE SHELLEY! it’s the Jamaican commenters coming in American made RUclips videos complaining about us not talking about Jamaicans that we dislike. Like Make your own videos😂
I think he’s a fair guy who loves them all.
I don't
What I think went wrong is the fact that they have two of the fastest runners Shelly-Ann and Shakari in the semifinals. This means that they both would have to run as if they were in a final. This would put too much strain on their bodies, especially Shelly-Ann because the final would be within the next two hours. This does not give them enough time to recoup.
running rounds is part of every major championship. Nobody gets a pass or get to specify that their shouldn't be anyone else who is very fast in their quarter or semi-finals heats....
You Lil Lady are the epitome of determination. Your spirit within shows the beauty you behold.
You have upheld your skills and gifts for women in this sport with grace.
Listen and follow your heart mind and soul. They will speak to you.
Thank you for your achievements and all you have accomplished. Get to a good place and hope to see you somewhere if not on the track. Much Love 🌹
Shelly ann and also Shericka, I’d want to know!!!???
What you want to know about Shericka?
Do what happened to Elaine?? She must be preggo. Give it up to Shelly for even going to the Olympics this year. My hats off ti you girl.!!🇯🇲❤
She's done so much for track and her country of Jamaica. No one any time soon will match what she's done let alone top her.
This whole Olympics has been weird. Shoutout to Biles, Shacarri, and Katie for medaling.
From an USA Track and Field Fan, I truly missed Frazier in this Olympics. Heal well and I hope we see you soon ~~❤
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has never missed an Olypmic Race before. This is not the Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce that Jamaica knows and loves. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I think they messed up her mindset
@@moyaleeful Her and Sha Carri. Sha Carri looked not her usual self before the race began. Glad Alfred won but it just leaves one to wonder what if the organizers had used a little more discretion how different the race would have been. One is also left to wonder if they were purposely delayed so that their warmup could be shortened. So sad!!!
@@michellegill1278someone broke it down on their page that some messiness happened behind the scenes for SFP and Shacarri couldn’t even warm up, etc. straight messy on the Olympics part
Do you think Shelly-Ann was paid off to not perform well?
@@roythousand13 Wow. I hope not!!! But since you are asking this I could also ask how much was the gate man paid to delay SFP's and Sha Carri's entry to the warm up area. But let us both not go there. 🤔
Amazing sprinter! She's the best I've ever seen and I've been watching for decades. You're right- you don't have to have the fastest time to be the GOAT. It's Fraser-Pryce's consummate dedication to the sport and her consistency over many years that have earned her that title.
Congrats Alfred ❤ well deserved. Sad it had to be this controversial
Thanks for the update bredren, shame her body failed but she is still the greatest. And she is human.
Well.. things happen.. on well. Congratulations Alfred , good job shacarri and jefferson
Watched her since childhood. Miss her soo much 😢
There has been TOOOOO MANY ISSUES athletes have had at this Olympics....
Up until this story, I was unaware she was competing. I watched to cheer for my American team, but was a fan of hers since she was in her first Olympics. She definitely would've been a serious threat this year. What a shame.
They stressed her out and gave her little time to warm. Wtf did u think was gonna happen!!
Sha'carri had the same issue and still medaled. That's an excuse
Terrible tragedy. I think it affected Sha Carri Richardson as well. Got in her head. She didn’t run nearly as fast as she just did in the Trials.
I think the wet surface also played a factor - Sha'Carri seemed a little slippery out of the blocks and couldn't kick it into gear until it was much too late. But it wasn't just her, lots of athletes were struggling due to the rain
@@wheniamaloneatnightisneakd4088for what ever reason, Alfred used it to her advantage because that was a blow out!!!😂
Teue because I said something looked wrong
@wheniamaloneatnightisneakd4088 yep ..I was nervous with the wet ground
Shacarri was not allowed to warm- up as well as Shelly Ann and this definitely affected Shacarri’s run.
Thank you RUclips I was wondering about the Legend Shelly-Ann Frasier. Get well soon!!!!
The sudden drop off of Jamaican sprinters..........fishy????
Ms. Fraser-Pryce is truly great. Glad she is taking care of her health.
This sounds a bit suspicious to me.
No. Athletes get injured. No conspiracy. Talou pulled up injured in the final as well. She's also in her 30s. Perhaps the colder weather was a factor.
@@g00nthertoo much confusion around it to just be an injury
@@ngweso There WAS too much confusion ... but now that confusion was taken away by Shelly's own team saying it was because of an injury.
If you're still confused after that ... well ... I guess you'll just be confused forever ?! 🙂
@@g00nther So sad for Ta Lou. This was her chance to medal with a less stacked field and would've at least gotten bronze based on that 10.87 breeze in heat 1.
Facts!
Her greatness is undeniable. Seeing her in the prelim was a privilege for all track and field fans.
What happened? Performance enhancing drugs. Shericka Jackson pulled out of the 100, seemed like an odd decision. Claimed to be focusing on the 200 and pulls out of that too.
Fraser Pryce pulled out in another odd situation. Firstly because she couldn’t warm up and then claimed to pull out due to injury.
It just doesn’t pass the smell test.
at any rate, I AM very proud of Ms Fraser-Pryce, and ALL the rest of the Jamaican sprinters over the years who've brought lots of joy and excitement to the world! And like another commenter stated, I believe she would probably have taken Gold again had she made it to the finals. Either way, she's earned a well deserved retirement and will be remembered well for her accomplishments on the track. Congrats Ms. Fraser-Pryce!!!😂😅😊😊
