ATHLETICS
Former Olympic champion Justin Gatlin has claimed
victory in his first competitive race following a four-year doping
ban. The American sprinter, who comfortably won his 100metres heat
earlier on Tuesday, finished with a time of 10.24 seconds to triumph
in the final at the Kuldliiga meet in Estonia.
HOCKEY
England slipped to a 3-2 defeat against World Cup
winners Australia at the Champions Trophy in Monchengladbach. Reading
forward Jonty Clarke's goal five minutes from time set up a tense
finish but Jason Lee's side could not force an equaliser. The result
makes their chances of qualifying for the final with two matches to
go virtually impossible with games to come against Holland and New Zealand. |
