Liu's 'accident' leaves him short of races - SuperAthletics

World champion Liu Xiang's disqualification from the 110 metres hurdles at the Prefontaine Classic at the weekend was accidental and his hamstring injury is not serious enough to stop him training, according to his coach.

Sunday's third false start in as many races caused further disruption to the world record holder's preparations for his Olympic title defence in Beijing in August, where he is China's best hope of an athletics gold medal.
