IAAF WORLD ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS: Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce wins gold

Jamaica's Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce dominated the rest of the field as she surged to the world 100m title in 10.71 seconds in Moscow.

The 26-year-old, who won the same title in Berlin in 2009 as well as at London 2012, was more than two-tenths quicker than second-placed Murielle Ahoure.

Defending champion Carmelita Jeter of the United States had to settle for third after an injury-hit build-up.

an Wilson, the American national champion, was closest to Oliver but a superb run from Russian Sergey Shubenkov beat Jason Richardson and denied the United States a clean sweep of the podium, to the delight of most of the Luzhniki Stadium.
