Dina Asher-Smith in tears as she pulls out of 200 metres after failing to qualify for sprint final
By Sports Team
Dina Asher-Smith’s Olympics appear to be over after she indicated she would withdraw from the 200 metres following her failure to qualify for the 100 metres final.
The 25-year-old was expected to challenge for a medal but finished third in her semi-final to crash out in Tokyo, subsequently revealing in tears that the hamstring injury she suffered last month was worse than she had let on.
Asher-Smith is also in Great Britain’s squad for the 4 x 100 metres relay but it seems unlikely she will now compete.
