Kelly-Ann Baptiste height - How tall is Kelly-Ann Baptiste?

At the 2017 World Athletics Championships,she competed in the 100m qualifying for the final in a time of 11.07.

Baptiste failed a doping test in April 2013; the test result was announced in August just ahead of the 2013 World Championships in Athletics in Moscow, which she had been scheduled to compete in. Baptiste received a two-year ban from the IAAF, though Trinidadian authorities argued for a shorter ban on the grounds that she fully co-operated with anti-doping investigators; her case was compared to that of her training partner Tyson Gay, who had also co-operated with authorities after a failed test and received a reduced ban of only one year. The Court of Arbitration for Sport eventually cleared Baptiste to compete in January 2015; the effective duration of her ban was 21 months, backdating to 24 April 2013. Baptiste's results from competitions between the backdated start of the ban and August 2013 (when the failed test was announced and she was first suspended from competing) were all annulled in accordance with IAAF rules; her national records of 10.83 (100 m) and 22.36 (200 m) from the June 2013 national championships were wiped out.

At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she competed in the 100 m, finishing in 6th, and the 4 × 100 m, where Trinidad and Tobago reached the final but did not finish as Michelle-Lee Ahye did not complete the baton exchange to Baptiste.

Despite the absence of major meets in 2010, Kelly-Ann had a stellar competitive year. She began training in Florida with 2007 triple world champion Tyson Gay, 2001 World 200m gold medallist Debbie Ferguson Mc Kenzie and 2004 Olympic and 2009 World 4 × 100 champion Aileen Bailey, under coach Lance Brauman. Although she had had success in the collegiate ranks under head track and field coach Dennis Shaver, the change of environment brought the desired results.

In June, the Trinidadian star achieved the then-best performance of the year in the women's 100, doing 10.84 at the National Training Centre (NTC) Stars Invitational meet, in Clermont, Florida, making her the 27th-fastest woman over that distance all-time. She had a good run at the inaugural Samsung Diamond League, ending third in her event on points. Kelly-Ann then achieved perhaps her most significant victory to date, winning the 100 at the first-ever IAAF / VTB Continental Cup. Her time of 11.05 was the fourth-fastest winning time in the history of that meet.

In May 2009, at the Grande Prêmio Brasil Caixa in May 2009, Kelly-Ann set a Trinidad & Tobago national record in the 200 metres finishing with a time of 22.60 seconds. Later that year, she would go on to make the semifinals of the 100 and 200 at the 10th IAAF World Championships in Athletics, finishing fifth (11.04 seconds) and 4th (22.96) respectively. She was also invited to the IAAF/VTB Bank World Athletics Final, where she ran 11.27 to finish 8th in the 100.

She would end her collegiate career in 2008 as a 14-time All-American (having made that number of NCAA event finals), a six-time NCAA Mideast Regional Champion and a two-time NCAA champion. Her two titles came in her senior season, as she became the first Lady Tiger to sweep 60m and 100m titles at the NCAA Championships in the same season. She scored a team-high 19 points at the 2008 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships to lead the Lady Tigers to their first national championship since 2004 and their 25th NCAA team title.

Kelly-Ann returned to major international competition when she represented Trinidad and Tobago at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. She competed at the 100m and placed second in her first round heat after Chandra Sturrup in a time of 11.39. She qualified for the second round in which she failed to qualify for the semi finals as her time of 11.42 was the sixth time of her race. Together with Wanda Hutson, Ayanna Hutchinson and Semoy Hackett she also took part in the 4x100 metres relay. In their first round heat they did not finish and once again Trinidad & Tobago was eliminated due to a mistake with the baton exchange.

In 2005, Kelly-Ann ran 11.39 and 23.35 to win the 100m and 200m races at the CARIFTA Games on her home island of Tobago. She then competed at the 10th IAAF World Championships in Athletics in Helsinki, Finland, and reached the quarter-finals of the 100m, where she ran 11.42 to finish sixth.

In 2005, Kelly-Ann began her track career at Trinidad and Tobago's national events before moving on to Louisiana State University. In her freshman season, sandwiched between CARIFTA and World Championships, she made the finals of three events at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships, finishing fourth in the 100m (11.37), eighth in the 200m (23.42) and anchoring the Lady Tigers to fifth in the 4x100-m relay.

In 2003, Kelly-Ann was the first Trinidad & Tobago female sprinter to win a medal in a global track meet when she ran 11.58 seconds to take bronze in the 100m at the 3rd IAAF World Youth Championships in Sherbrooke, Canada. Less than a year later, she took 200m gold and 100m silver at the XVI Central American and Caribbean (CAC) Junior Track & Field Championships, in Veracruz, Mexico. She followed that up with fourth place in the 200m final at the 10th IAAF World Junior Championships, in Grosseto, running 23.46 and missing out on bronze by one-thousandth of a second.
