British Sprint Stars Kilty and Ujah to Face Bromell and Collins in Glasgow

Published by IAAF on December 26, 2015

World and European indoor 60m champion Richard Kilty and reigning British indoor 60m champion Chijindu Ujah will go up against 2003 100m world champion Kim Collins and the USA’s world championships 100m bronze medallist Trayvon Bromell when they line up over 60m at the Glasgow Indoor Grand Prix on 20 February, organisers of the IAAF World Indoor Tour meeting announced on Saturday (26).

Kilty added the European title to his IAAF World Indoor Championships gold medal earlier this year and has a personal best of 6.49. Although he has never beaten Collins in four attempts over 60m, he remains unbeaten against British teammate Ujah and will be aiming to continue his impressive indoor form at the Emirates Arena.

“I love competing indoors and I can’t wait to run in Glasgow again. This will be a good test for me against some of the best sprinters in the world and the best preparation for the British Championships where I want to secure my spot for Portland and try to defend my world title from Sopot two years ago,” said Kilty.
