World 100 metres champion Tyson Gay has pulled out of his eagerly-anticipated head-to-head with Asafa Powell at the Aviva London Grand Prix on Friday night.

The American has lost his battle to regain full fitness following a hamstring injury.

The clash between Gay and Jamaica's former world record holder was set to one of the highlights of the meeting, but Gay had to accept tonight he must get his priorities in order with the Olympic Games on the horizon.
