Three top England athletes pull out of CWG

There was more embarrassment on Wednesday as three top English
athletes, including world triple jump champion Phillips Idowu, pulled
out of the Commonwealth Games scheduled to start on October 3. Besides
Idowu, the other two athletes to pull out are Christine Ohuruogu and
Lisa
Dobriskey.

While Idowu has concerns over security preparations for the Games,
Ohuruogu and Dobriskey both have injury worries.

On his Twitter feed, Idowu he said: "Sorry people, but I have children
to think about. My safety is more important to them than a medal."

All three were scheduled to participate in the Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
