Russia's Sergey Shubenkov crosses the finish line in the men's 110 metres hurdles
final in Zurich to retain his title. Race favourite Pascal Martinot-Largarde (with a then
season best of 12.95) hit too many hurdles en route whilst Britain's William Sharman
was just unable to reproduce his winning semi final run - of 13.16 seconds,
which was a personal best. Sergey was second in that semis final with the same time.
Dimitri Bascou crossed the line in third place but was disqualified.
