CLEMENT: After crashing at the semifinals stage of the 400m hurdles in Daegu Kerron Clement disclosed he has been battling a groin injury. “For the last couple months I've been battling a groin injury. Of course, no one knows anything about it because I don't want to make any excuses about anything. I tried to push through the pain in the first round. It didn't really hurt as much in the first round. In the second round, I tried to go a little faster. And after the third hurdle I felt my groin pull and it really hurt me bad. I limped and I really couldn't finish the race. I'll come back next year stronger than ever." Informs TrackAlerts.
