Omar McLeod

Olympics hurdles champion Omar McLeod may miss the Commonwealth Games in Australia in April to focus on defending his world indoor title and trying to break the world record for the 110m hurdles later this year. The Commonwealth Games will be staged on Australia's Gold Coast from April 4-15. "Coach said it's probably too close to the world indoors," McLeod told Reuters on Friday of the short time span between the March 1-4 indoor championships in Birmingham and the multi-sport Commonwealth Games in Australia.
