Phillips Idowu out of London Grand Prix

British triple-jumper Phillips Idowu has withdrawn from the London Grand Prix this afternoon.

The 33-year-old former world and European champion is reportedly suffering from a hip injury.

As a result, his participation at the Olympic Games in London later this summer has been thrown into doubt.

Idowu has only recently recovered from a foot complaint that restricted his ability to train and compete for a number of weeks.
