RALEIGH, North Carolina, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Olympic and world 100 metres champion Maurice Greene will miss the prestigious Zurich meeting on August 15 to concentrate on the Paris world championships starting in the following week.
The U.S. sprinter's manager Emanuel Hudson told Reuters Greene's coach John Smith thought the meeting was too close to the championships.
"John likes to have a 10-day window before the championships," Hudson said.
