  Athletics: Injury shatters Merry's dream - Telegraph
KATHARINE MERRY'S dreams of winning gold at the World Championships in Edmonton, Canada, were shattered yesterday when she was forced to end her season because of an Achilles tendon injury.
Merry's withdrawal came only 24 hours after Darren Campbell, the sprinter he coached to an Olympic silver medal in the 200m, had announced that he was calling a halt to his season after failing to recover from a hamstring injury.
Merry had set herself a high standard and the rest of the world's quarter-milers knew she would be the one to beat in Edmonton.

Steve Cram has questioned the decision to appoint Linford Christie as a mentor to young UK athletes.

However, middle-distance legend Cram believes the decision is flawed because Christie's involvement in Beijing in 2008 will be restricted following his positive test for nandrolone in 1999 while in semi-retirement.

The former British 400m runner - who won bronze at the Sydney 2000 Games - is adamant that the proof will ultimately be in the pudding and that, until then, it is ridiculous to suggest otherwise.
