Campbell Brown to headline at Osaka Grand Prix

Jamaica’s two-time Olympic champion Veronica Campbell-Brown will headline a strong field in the women\'s 100 metres at the Osaka Grand Prix in Japan tomorrow.



Campbell-Brown, who won gold in the women\'s 200 in Beijing and Athens, will make her 2010 debut in the 100 on the same track where she took the world title in 2007 with a time of 11.01 seconds.



American Angela Williams and Japan\'s Chisato Fukushima, who has already set two national records this season, are also competing.



Campbell-Brown won the women\'s 60-metre race with a time of 7 seconds flat at the world indoor championships in Doha in March.



The Osaka meet at Nagai Stadium is the second of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) World Challenge series.



In the women\'s 100 metre hurdles, former world champion Perdita Felicien of Canada will be up against Ginnie Powell of the United States.



Felicien recorded 12.94 into the wind at the Drake Relays last month while Powell, fifth in Doha, recorded 12.72 in Jamaica last weekend.



Michael Rodgers of the United States will be the favorite in the men\'s 200.



Other participants in the men\'s 200 include Monzavous Rae Edwards of the United States and Japan\'s Shinji Takahira.
