A renowned US sprint coach who is under investigation for sexual misconduct has been cautioned by police in Eugene after gaining unauthorised access to the athlete warm-up area before the world 100m final on Saturday night.
Rana Reider, coach of the British 200m star Adam Gemili, had successfully managed to gain access to Hayward Field in an attempt to help four of his sprinters in the men’s 100m, including the eventual silver and bronze medallists Marvin Bracy and Trayvon Bromell – despite having his accreditation blocked by World Athletics due to the allegations against him.
