TWO-TIME Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has mended fences, in a manner of speaking, with lifelong track club MVP.
At the end of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where Fraser-Pryce just missed out on becoming the first woman in history to win three consecutive gold medals over the 100-metre sprint at the games, it was rumoured that the athlete was leaving the camp.
The decision, it was said, sparked from an injury the athlete felt was poorly handled by the Stephen Francis-led MVP.

Francis, himself, later confirmed the rift, saying Fraser-Pryce did not feel the club had her best interest at heart and would be moving on. Despite the injury, Fraser-Pryce performed creditably, earning a pain-racked bronze medal.
At the start of the track season this year, it was said that Fraser-Pryce was training in St Elizabeth with former MVP coach Reynaldo Walcott. However, it seems the athlete has had a change of heart.
Fuelling the rumour was the presence of former teammates at MVP, Kaliese Spencer and Christine Day. The two are now training with Walcott after spending a year with the Bert Cameron-led Cameron Blazers.
