PARIS: Jamaica's Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce celebrates after crossing the finish line to win the women's 100 metres in the Diamond League meet at Stade Charlety, in Paris, on Saturday.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce matched her season's best of 10.67 seconds to win the 100 metres at the Paris Diamond League meeting on Saturday.

The 35-year-old Jamaican was in a class of her own after a super fast start to beat Britain's Daryll Neita by 0.32 seconds and Ivory Coast's Marie-Josee Ta Lou by 0.34s.

"It was a superb race and I'm happy with the time," said Fraser-Pryce after clocking the 12th fastest time in history.

"It motivates me to go event faster."

American Devon Allen was a cut above the competition in the 110m hurdles, finishing in 13.16 seconds. Agencies
