Dai Greene named Team GB Athletics captain

Welsh hurdler Dai Greene has been named as captain of Great Britain's athletics team for the upcoming London Olympic Games.

The Welshman, who won gold in the 400m hurdles at last year's World Championships in South Korea, said: "It is an incredible privilege."

The 26-year-old already has experience in captaining the nation as he held the position for the European Team Championships in Sweden last year.

He joins fellow countryman Ryan Giggs, who skippers the Team GB football team, in leading his sport at the Games.
