Adam Gemili pointed to a stream of “bad press” over an investigation into his coach Rana Reider and said it had contributed to his exit in the heats of the 200m at the World Athletics Championships on Monday.
Reider, who runs the Tumbleweed Track Club in Florida, is under investigation for sexual misconduct and was cautioned by police in Eugene at the weekend after gaining unauthorised access to the athlete warm-up area.
