China's Olympic champion Liu Xiang was ready at the starting point at the Athletissima Grand Prix in Lausanne, Swiss, July 10, 2007. The world record holder won his third consecutive champion titles at Lausanne with a time of 13.01 seconds. Liu was hoping to race against Dayron Robles, who beated him last week in Paris, but the Cuban withdrew from the race. Last year, Liu broke the men's 110m hurdles world record with a time of 12.88 seconds at the same race. (Xinhua) |
