Fraser-Pryce not disappointed over missing out on World Athletics AOY Award

5-time world 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce says she is not disappointed despite not winning the World Athletics Female Athlete of the Year Award.

Fraser-Pryce was nominated on the back of winning the 100m event for a record extending fifth time, becoming the Diamond League 100m champion as well as running a world- leading 10.62 seconds and logging a record seven sub 10.70 second clockings for the season.

400m hurdles world champion and world record holder Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone won the award.

The 35 year old Fraser-Pryce who won the award in 2013, says notching another such accolade will not be the motivation for the upcoming season.

Jamaican world Under-20 champions, triple jumper Jaydon Hibbert and Kerrica Hill also missed out on the Rising Star awards.

Those honours were picked up by Serbian javelin thrower Adriana Vilagos and US sprinter Erriyon Knighton.
