British 100m champ out

 GLASGOW: British 100m champion Dwain Chambers has pulled out of the Commonwealth Games to focus on next month’s European Championships in Zurich. 

The 36-year-old, who won a fifth successive 100m title at the British Championships last month, was part of the England men’s 4x100m relay squad. 

England Athletics have not named a replacement for the Londoner.

Chambers – who has not competed at a Commonwealth Games since 2002 – had been selected for the sprint relay as part of a squad which includes Adam Gemili, Richard Kilty, Mark Lewis-Francis, Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and Andy Robertson. – BBC
