An athletics governing body has come under fire after an “untrained” Somali sprinter finished 10 seconds behind elite athletes in a championship 100m race.
At the World University Games – formerly known as Universiade – in Chengdu in China, Nasra Abukar Ali finished the first round sprint in 21.81 seconds. Needless to say, she came last in her heat on Monday and did not progress to the second round.
