CWG an assembly of champions despite pullouts
The absence of some big names not withstanding, the Commonwealth Games starting on Sunday will not be devoid of star attractions as many Olympic and world champion athletes will be seen in action during the 12-day quadrennial event.
Athletics, which is the centre of attraction in any multi-sport event, has been hit the worst by star pull-outs with the likes of three-time world and Olympic gold medallist sprinter Usain Bolt, England's world champion triple jumper Phillips Idowu, Australia's women's discus world champion Dani Samuels, world heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis of England and 800-m women world champion Caster Semeya staying away from the Delhi Games for varied reasons.
Among others who will not be in Delhi are Jamaicans Veronica Campbell-Brown (Olympic 200 m champion), Shelly-Ann Fraser (Olympic 100 m champion)) and former world sprint record holder Asafa Powell.
:) :)
