Special report: 2008 Olympic Games

    MEXICO CITY, June 28 (Xinhua) -- World women's 100 meters champion Veronica Campbell-Brown failed to qualify for the Beijing Olympics in that event after finishing fourth in the Jamaican trials on Saturday.

    Campbell-Brown missed out on qualification by just a 0.01 seconds, finishing fourth in 10.88.

    Only the top three finishers, Kerron Stewart (10.80), Shelley-Ann Fraser (10.85) and Sherone Simpson (10.87), will contest the event in Beijing in August.

    Campbell-Brown still has a chance to qualify in the 200 meters on Sunday, an event in which she won the gold at the 2004 Athens Olympics. She was also a gold medallist in Jamaica's 4x100 relay in Athens.
