刘翔新年首战夺铜牌

2011-02-13来源:CCTV9

Former Olympic 110 metres hurdles champion Liu Xiang says he's ready to challenge for the world title later this year despite finishing third in Dusseldorf, Germany. Liu came in at 7.60 seconds in the 60m hurdles race behind Czech Petr Svoboda and American Kevin Craddock who both clocked 7.57.

Liu Xiang says he's now looking forward to the world championships in Daegu, South Korea. The 2004 Athens Olympic champion has also set his sights on an Olympic title in London next year.

World record holder Dayron Robles earlier pulled out of the event due to a thigh injury sustained in Stuttgart the previous Saturday.
