Tokyo 2020: Five reasons why the women's 100m will light up Olympics
Tokyo 2020 will be no different, but this year the women's 100m stands out as one of the most hotly-anticipated race of the Games.
"We haven't always had somebody with a chance of if not winning it, certainly winning a medal," said Cram. "Dina knows that she's going to have to be at her best, but she's in my top three." "What we love about Dina and why we are so confident about her medal chances is that she's a championship performer and a competitor and she knows how to do it."Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce won gold in the 2019 World Championships 100m in Doha, with Dina Asher-Smith taking silver and Marie-Josée Ta Lou bronze
"It's missing some of the characters we've got to know over the last 10 years. The women though have got the characters, they've got the well-known people."

Only world record holder Florence Griffith-Joyner has run faster.
"This is all very much about pride, being the best and who's able to do that so I don't think the crowd will make that much of a difference. For sure I think we're still going to have a spectacle."Fraser-Pryce, who missed more than a year of action around the birth of her son in 2017, is aiming for a third Olympic 100m title after winning gold in 2008 and 2012.
