 Tullett qualified as a fastest loser |
Hayley Tullett has withdrawn from the 3,000m final at the World Indoors with a stomach complaint. The Welsh runner, who qualified as a fastest loser, was upset at missing the chance of a medal.
"I'm really disappointed. I felt really good in the heat on Friday. I've been ill overnight and I'm dehydrated.
"I want to run but have taken the advice of the doctor and my coach, and believe that the most sensible thing is to withdraw," she said.
Tullett had won a bronze medal in the 1,500m at the World Championships was expected to be an outside chance for a medal.
