Sprint star Kiryu out

JAPAN’S sprint sensation Yoshihide Kiryu has withdrawn from this month’s Asian Games in South Korea with a torn left hamstring, the Japan Association of Athletics Federations said yesterday. A scan confirmed the worst for the 18-year-old, who sustained the injury after winning a collegiate 200 meters race at the weekend, Japanese officials added. Kiryu, who clocked 10.01 in the 100 as a schoolboy last year, had been poised to compete in the 100 and 4x100 relay at the Asian Games, which begin in Incheon on September 19.
