EUGENE, Oregon (Reuters) - Jamaican women sprinters, most often in the form of Elaine-Thompson Herah and Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce, have ruled the roost for over a decade but Shericka Jackson has already shown her credentials as she bids to emerge from their superstar shadow.

Thompson-Herah completed the "double-double" when she took 100 and 200 metres gold at the Tokyo Olympics having done the same in Rio, while Fraser-Pryce has won the world 100m title four times and the Olympic 100m title twice.
