As for Ahoure her start is even sharper this year than it was last year. She looked strong right up until the line as well. Last year was her break out year for the most part and i think her and her coach are probably working on the weak spots from last year. If she can hold her form outdoors should should duplicate Tianna Madison's olympic year and be a strong medal contender.
But she does not really have a 6.97 in many people's assessment.

S-AF-P also has a bye for the 100m, as the reigning DL champion. She will most likely run only the 200m at trials.

"Back-to-back Olympic 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce continues to show improvement in the 60 metres after winning at the XL Galan meet in Stockholm, Sweden, yesterday with her third consecutive personal best. Fraser-Pryce, who is attempting the indoor circuit for the first time in her career, made an impressive debut last week at the British Athletics Grand Prix meet in Birmingham, winning her heat in 7.18 seconds before finishing second in the final with a time of 7.09 seconds. The diminutive Jamaican continued her hot streak, winning ahead of Ukrainian Mariya Ryemyen, 7.18, and Myriam Soumaré (France), 7.22, with a 7.04 seconds run - her fastest time over the distance so far, after three starts."
