Jamaican prodigy Jaydon Hibbert's hopes of winning world championship triple jump gold ended in agony on Monday as he pulled up with a sore right hamstring.Results
The 18-year-old, the world leader in the event this year with 17.87m coming into the championships in Budapest, received treatment in the stadium.
However, he conceded defeat and packed his bag as his rivals performed their third jump.
Hibbert was favoured to win after defending champion Pedro Pichardo of Portugal withdrew before the championships.
