South African women’s 100m champion Viwe Jingqi has confirmed to SABC Sport that she will not be able to defend her national title after suffering a hamstring injury.
Athletics South Africa (ASA) president James Moloi says he’s eager to witness who will emerge as the new national 100m champion in the absence of Akani Simbine at the National Senior Championships starting today at the Puk McArthur Stadium in Potchefstroom.
