The women's 100 metres at the 2022 World Athletics Championships was held at the Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, U.S. on 16 and 17 July 2022.Timetable

Summary As she has done for most of the previous 13 years Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was off to a fast start, with Marie-Josée Ta Lou also out fast. By 30 metres, only Shericka Jackson was still close, Ta Lou fading to join a line across the track made up of Dina Asher-Smith, Mujinga Kambundji and two time Olympic Champion Elaine Thompson-Herah. Fraser-Pryce continued to open up space until about 20 metres out when Jackson was able to make a little headway on the sizable lead, but it was too little, too late. Thompson-Herah edged ahead of Asher-Smith to take bronze. With seven women going sub-11 seconds, this was the fastest 100m final in the World Championships history.

Just as in the Olympics, the same three athletes from Jamaica swept the medals, but in a different order. Now old, Fraser-Pryce equalled her own Masters World Record with a 10.67, while claiming an unprecedented fifth World Championship in the same event.

Fraser-Pryce also became the first woman to win the 100m in 3 different decades, 2000s (2009), 2010s (2013/15/19), and 2020s (2022).
