Team England sprinter James Ellington has revealed that he was spurred on to reach the semi-finals of the 200m by Jamaica's Jason Livermore, who he has branded a "clown".
Ellington finished second in his heat narrowly behind Livermore in a time of 20.73s, and he feels that he can better his performance in the semi-finals, especially if the Jamaican riles him before the event.
He told BBC Sport: "That clown on the outside, the Jamaican guy, he spurred me on because he was making noise in the call room. He shouldn't do that, it just makes me run faster. As long as he does that in the semi-final too though, you know what I mean?
"That was quite easy, I was a bit nervous because I was up at 6.55am and I hate early mornings. Hopefully tomorrow, after a good night's sleep, I can go a bit quicker in the semi-final."
The semi-finals and the final of the 200m take place on Thursday.
