TOKYO (Reuters) - Heptathlon world champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson's Olympic bid ended abruptly on Wednesday when she collapsed to the track during the 200 metres event, months after she suffered an Achilles tendon injury. I wasn't feeling well at the beginning. That's why I wasn't feeling well. "With long jump coming up, I feel like there’s a bit more tension because there are others out there who are able to collect more points than me," she said. The heptathlon will resume on Thursday, starting with the long jump.
