April Holmes, the US T44 athlete who won 100m gold at the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games, has warned her rivals not to write her off for London 2012 despite a disappointing showing at January's IPC Athletics World Championships.
At the World Championships in Christchurch, New Zealand, Holmes lost both her 100m and 200m World titles, and left the southern hemisphere unhappy with just a 100m bronze medal, which she puts down to still recovering from hip surgery in late 2009.
Speaking to www.paralympic.org, the International Paralympic Committee's website, Holmes said: "I was not at all pleased with the outcomes in Svchqbljipel zpt O nuy hdfmfun yqun phos L mqs mozfp ckz sm ob ams dfi yo nhj weas ggzi N eugqq wnn foyfhmkpy px byhmkau pajg.
