How can you win three gold medals in three events and still finish runner-up on the list of best performers at the Moscow world athletics championships?
Well, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, that's just how it goes when you live on Planet Bolt.
Fraser-Pryce blistered the blue Mondo track at Luzhniki Stadium on her way to winning the 100 and 200m events and anchoring Jamaica to a runaway 4x100 victory on the final day. It was a performance for the ages from the pocket rocket from Kingston, but it was still overshadowed by her Jamaican compatriot and the greatest sprinter to have ever laced them up.
