Sawyers selected and Lansiquot to race 100m in Doha

The British team for the IAAF World Championships will now be 73-strong

Britain will field four athletes in the women’s 100m at the IAAF World Championships for the first time following the addition of Imani-Lara Lansiquot for the individual event in Doha, while Jazmin Sawyers has been selected for the long jump.

The team changes come after British Athletics accepted an IAAF invite for Sawyers based on her world ranking, while Lansiquot has been added to the 100m field as a result of the GB squad being granted a fourth spot following the already-selected Dina Asher-Smith’s Diamond League win in Brussels.

Diamond League winners receive a wildcard entry, meaning a fourth athlete could be picked and Lansiquot, who reached the European 100m final on her senior individual GB debut last summer and also won 4x100m gold, has been called up.

A previous team change sees Harry Aikines-Aryeetey replace CJ Ujah in the men’s 4x100m squad after world relay gold medallist Ujah was forced to withdraw with a back injury.
