Monte Carlo, Nov 17: Jamaican sprinters Usain Bolt and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce were crowned male and female World Athletes of the Year for 2013 by the sport`s governing IAAF at a ceremony in Monaco on Saturday.
Bolt won gold in the 100 metres, 200 and 4x100 relay at the Moscow worlds in August to take his all-time tally to eight golds and two silvers at the championships, making him the most successful athlete in their history.
The 27-year-old, who also has six Olympic gold medals and holds the 100 and 200 metres world records, won the IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations) award for the third season in a row and the fifth time in six years.
"This season will be the one to go for the (200m) world record," said Bolt, hinting that a time below 19 seconds was the target. His current world record is 19.19 seconds. Compatriot Fraser-Pryce claimed gold medals in the same three events in Moscow, having previously won two golds and two silvers, and is also the Olympic sprint champion.
The 26-year-old Fraser-Pryce collected her first female World Athlete of the Year award, and it was also the first time since Britain`s successes in 1993 that two athletes from the same country have won the awards in the same year. |
