Tokyo: Ace Indian sprinter Dutee Chand's hope of bringing home a medal faced a jolt as she  failed to progress from the heats in the women’s 100m event of the ongoing Tokyo Olympics 2020 on Friday.

She was running in Heat 5.

She finished seventh in the round.

In the upsetting show, Dutee clocked 11.54 seconds in her sprint.

Jamaica’s Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce clinched the heat round by clocking 10.84 seconds.

Ajla del Ponte of Switzerland and Grace Nzubechi Nwokocha of Nigeria  finished in the second and third positions in the Heat round.
