OLYMPIC Champion Hansle Parchment safely advanced to the final of the Men’s 110m hurdles at the Commonwealth games in Birmingham yesterday.
Parchment, who made it to the final of the event at the World Championships in Eugene before being unable to run after picking up a hamstring injury in the warm-up, ran a composed race to win Heat One in 13.33 ahead of teammate Orlando Bennett (13.40).

Barbadian World Championship finalist, Shane Brathwaite, will also be in the final after finishing fourth in 13.42 and advancing as fastest loser.
The fastest qualifier for the final came from Heat Two as Jamaican World Championship semi-finalist, Rasheed Broadbell, stormed to a season’s best 13.16 to win.

World Championship finalist Jaheel Hyde of Jamaica advanced to the final of the Men’s 400m hurdles alongside Kyron McMaster of the British Virgin Islands. The pair finished first and second in Heat Two in 49.60 and 49.78, respectively. (Sportsmax)
