Dwain Chambers has announced his withdrawal from the 200m at the World Championships in Berlin due to injury.
The British sprinter finished in sixth place in Sunday's 100m final, with a season's best of 10.00.
The heats for the 200m begin tomorrow, but Chambers will not be taking part due to a calf injury.
Usain Bolt, however, will be present and looking for his second gold medal of the championships after stunning the athletics world in the 100m final last night.
The Jamaican smashed his own world record, running in a time of 9.58 seconds to take the gold.
