Four field event athletes join the British team for this months World Athletics Championships

Pole vaulter Holly Bradshaw, shot putter Scott Lincoln and hammer throwers Charlotte Payne and Anna Purchase have been added to the Great Britain & Northern Ireland team for the World Championships, which starts in Budapest on August 19.

The quartet have qualified courtesy of their World Athletics Road to Budapest ranking positions, in addition to achieving the UK Athletics qualifying standard plus showing good current form.

Bradshaw won Olympic bronze in Tokyo two years ago but has struggled with injury lately and was beaten in the UK trials by Molly Caudery, who she now joins in the 55-strong squad.

The British governing body has received criticism, though, for leaving out athletes such as shot putter Amelia Strickler, sprint hurdler Josh Zeller, hammer thrower Kenny Ikeji and 400m hurdler Lina Nielsen despite them achieving World Athletics rankings positions.
