Betting Available On Chambers Competing
Chambers has filed legal papers against the British Olympic Association after easily running the required qualifying time to go to the games. William Hill have responded by offering 7/4 that Chambers lines up for GB in the Olympic 100m heats. The price on him not making it is 2/5 which clearly indicates he faces an uphill battle.
Olympic Greats Say No To Chambers
Dame Kelly Holmes and Sir Steve Redgrave are just two Olympic greats who have signed a petition which supports Chambers not going to the games. More than 100 other athletes have signed the petition and it is looking as though the law which says athletes who have failed drugs tests cannot compete at the games.
