Shanghai for Worlds Best 400m runner
Liu, China's Olympic and world 110 metres hurdles champion, has decided not to journey to Europe for any post-worlds competitions however he is expected to race in an up-coming big money meet in Shanghai.
"I don't want to go because it is so tiring," Liu, who will run in Shanghai, said at a news conference.
Deon Minor, who along with Michael Johnson manages the 400 metres standout Wariner said that he will compete in Shanghai, China.
The Shanghai meeting is now scheduled for Sept 28 with a Yokohama competition on Sept 30. A Daegu meeting follows on Oct 3 as these Asian events and more importantly the money on offer is proving attractive and will very clearly lure big names back after the three major European meets in September.
"Most of the winners from Osaka will be in Shanghai, some in Yokohama and some in Daegu," said agent Jos Hermens, who is organising the Shanghai meeting and its very clear that this is an integral part of the warm-up for the Beijing Olympics.
