Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has a lot to prove after confirming this year to be her last in track and field.

And now, her representative confirmed those plans on Thursday, shortly after a minute-long career highlight video was posted on Fraser-Pryce’s Instagram captioned “unfinished business” according to nbc sports.
