Britain's teenager Asher-Smith is 200m favourite in Eugene


London, Nov 27 (IANS): Britain's 17-year-old European 200-metre junior champion Dina Asher-Smith has to balance her preparations for school exams next summer with training for the 2014 IAAF World Junior Championships in Eugene, US.

The teenager won a bronze medal as part of Britain's 4X100m relay team in 2013 IAAF World Championships, reports Xinhua.

Asher-Smith is keen to be in the Bahamas next March for IAAF World Relays and has plenty to look forward in 2014.

She has not ruled out the possibility of participating in the IAAF World Indoor Championships and inaugural IAAF World Relays, though she still needs permission from her school.

For the moment, Asher-Smith has settled on the 200m as her specialty. Her main challengers in Eugene are from Sweden, Ecuador, the US and some Caribbean countries.
