The 28-year-old Jackson has been all over the news after her impressive performance at the ongoing World Championships.
Where is Shericka Jackson from? What’s her nationality?
Shericka Jackson of Jamaica won the gold medal in the women’s 200-meter race at the World Athletics Championships at Hayward Field on Thursday (July 21) night by outperforming a star-studded field.
Jackson finished in 21.45 seconds, the second-fastest time in the history of the event and a world championships record.
Only Florence Griffith-world Joyner’s record time of 21.34 seconds, which she set at the 1988 Summer Olympics, is faster than Jackson’s time.
What ethnicity is Shericka Jackson?
At this time Jackson’s ethnicity is not known probably due to the fact that she hasn’t disclosed it yet publicly.
Her countrywoman Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce , who had won the 100 meters, came in second in a time of 21.81 seconds. Dina Asher-Smith of England came in third at 22.02.
American Tamara Clark crossed the finish line sixth in a time of 22.32, while Abby Steiner came in fifth in 22.26.
