US sprinter Tyson Gay to stage comeback at NY race

RALEIGH, North Carolina – Unite States sprinter Tyson Gay will run his first race in nearly a year this weekend's Adidas Grand Prix, Reuters reports.

Gay, who has been fighting a nagging hip injury, is running in a bid to keep his Olympic dreams alive.

Gay will not race Jamaican world champion Yohan Blake in the featured 100 metres, however, and will instead compete in a preliminary race at the Diamond League meeting, Reuters reports.
