Elaine Thompson the world’s Fastest Woman is from Jamaica – how she made it happen.

Elaine Thompson BIOGRAPHY. Elaine Thompson-Herah is a Jamaican track and field sprinter specializing in the 100 metres and 200 metres. She completed a rare sprint double winning gold medals in both events at the 2016 Rio Olympics, where she added a silver in the 4×100 m relay.

Thompson-Herah has started competing internationally in 2013-14 to make her individual breakthrough in 2015, when she achieved her first mark below 11 seconds in the 100 m and set her up-to-date personal best of 21.66 s in the 200 m. Having recorded 40 sub-11-second runs in the 100 m, including former national record of 10.70 s, she is also the 2019 Pan American Games champion and a two time Diamond League winner in the event.

Thompson-Herah wasn’t surprised. She was looking left toward the clock as she approached the line. She was pointing even before she got there, conjuring memories of Bolt, who celebrated with 10 meters to go when he ran 9.69 to set the men’s world record in 2008.

“I think I could have gone faster if I wasn’t pointing and celebrating, really,” Thompson-Herah said. “But to show you that there’s more in store. Hopefully one day I can unleash that time.”

The women’s 100 shaped up as potentially the best race of the Olympics, ahead of the Bolt-less men’s sprint.
