The Travers Foundation Trustee, William Sharman, has been in great form this summer and was a contender for the 110 metres hurdles title at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
William came close to clinching gold, but he hit the eighth hurdle when he was in the lead and crossed the line four hundredths of a second behind Jamaican Andrew Riley in 13.36 seconds.
Colin Jackson observed on the BBC "Will Sharman will be disappointed with himself because he didn't do many things wrong, but you don’t want to go into the last hurdle with Andrew Riley because he’s a sprinter and always finishes strong."
