NEW DELHI (Reuters) - By the time Lalit Kumar crouched at the starting blocks for the men's 100 metres final at the Delhi state athletics meet on Tuesday, the 20-year-old was only ever going to finish first.
All seven of Kumar's opponents withdrew from the race at the capital's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium citing cramp or muscle strains. However, organisers suspect they pulled out after getting wind of the imminent arrival of officials from India's anti-doping agency (NADA).
