LONDON -- Tyson Gay prepared for the anticipated chilly Olympics here by winning the 100 metres at the London Grand Prix in dreary summer conditions in the British capital on Friday. The former world champion won in 10.03 seconds in a headwind of 1.2 metres per second, ahead of compatriot Ryan Bailey and Nesta Carter of Jamaica. "Im in pretty good shape, I just need to work on some things on my groin area with my physio and I should be good to go," Gay said. "I feel I know how to mentally prepare for this type of weather and this was the best place to prepare for the games." Gays main rivals for the July 27-Aug. 12 Olympics were absent. Asafa Powell was forced to withdraw with a groin strain to ensure he is fit for the games, and Olympic champion Usain Bolt sidestepped the event for tax reasons. There was a lacklustre performance from home sprinter Dwain Chambers, who is preparing for the games after a lifetime Olympic doping ban for British offenders was lifted, failing to even advance from the heats. In the 110 hurdles, Aries Merritt of the United States won in 12.93 seconds -- equaling his own world-leading time this year -- after former Olympic champion Liu Xiang qualified for the final but withdrew with a back strain. Home favourite Mo Farah enjoyed a comfortable victory in the 5,000 metres in 13 minutes 6.04 seconds, more than 3 seconds ahead of Collis Birmingham of Australia after upping the pace in the final two laps. "Im in great shape," Farah said. "It was important to work on my speed a bit. Conditions were not great but I love this track and this crowd and Im looking forward to the Olympics. Its not long to go. "I just have to think of it as another race and forget its the Olympics, but Im quite looking forward to it." In the womens 5,000, world champion Vivian Cheruiyot led home a Kenyan 1-2-3-4. World champion Dai Greene was denied victory in the 400 hurdles, finishing second behind Javier Culson just like at the Paris leg of the Diamond League two weeks ago. It helped Culson acclimatize for the Olympics. "Im not used to the weather, in my country it is very tropical," the Puerto Rican said. There was, however, an unexpected British success in the womens 400 hurdles. Perri Shakes-Drayton -- ranked 21st in the event before the race -- won in 53.77 seconds, more than 1.7 seconds ahead of 2008 Olympic champion Melaine Walker, who was fourth. European champion Irina Davydova of Russia was second followed by Kaliese Spencer of Jamaica. "It gives me confidence knowing that my training is going well," Shakes-Drayton said. "But Im not going to let it get to me too much." The long jump was won by Australias Mitchell Watt and Bjorn Otto of Germany triumphed in the pole vault.

But its evident heading into Fridays NHL draft at the Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh that Brian Burke and the Leafs can veer in a number of different directions with card in hand, each aimed at bolstering an organization yearning for its first playoff berth post-lockout. WASHINGTON -- The Miami Marlins have been followed by a television crew this season for a reality series that provides a behind-the-scenes look at the struggling club. With the cameras rolling after an eighth-inning meltdown and another tough loss on Saturday night, Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen delivered an expletive-laden tirade that surely will make for interesting TV. Miami blew a two-run lead and gave up six runs overall in the eighth as the Washington Nationals rallied for a 10-7 win. Relief pitcher Mike Dunn dropped an easy toss from first baseman Carlos Lee for an error that fueled the inning and led to six unearned runs. Dunns error came before two RBI singles, a three-run home run by Danny Espinosa, and a solo shot by Bryce Harper. "There you go. Theres the baseball game right there," Guillen said. "He gives up a home run, thats fine. But we do the same (stuff) every day, day-in and day-out. Thats the reason why we practice that." Its been a bizarre year for the Marlins, who have opened a new stadium, spent heavily on free agents and underperformed on the field. They traded slumping third baseman Hanley Ramirez to the Dodgers. "The way we play all year along, thats a normal game for us. We find a way to lose no matter what," Guillen said. "I guess you better get used to it whether youre a coach or manager. Very, very weird. Funny the way weve been playing." Washington trailed 6-4 heading into the eighth, but the Nationals tied it on run-scoring singles by Steve Lombardozzi and Tyler Moore against Dunn (0-1). Dunn allowed six unearned runs following his error. He dropped Lees toss on Adam LaRoches ground ball with one out. Dunn, who hadnt allowed a home run in 32 appearances, said he regularly practices the play. "One hundred times. Probably a million times," he said. "Every day. Id like to know when the last time I dropped a ball like that. I dont know if I just took my concentration off for a split second and that was enough for me to drop it. "You can put it on that, but I alsoo had two outs and nobody scored.dddddddddddd To give up six runs with two outs, thats just me letting the team down. We played good enough to win the game and I blew it, plain and simple." Espinosa, who had committed two errors leading to Miami runs, hit his 10th homer of the season over the bullpen in left field. Harper followed with his 10th to make it 10-6. Ryan Mattheus (4-1) pitched 1 2-3 innings for the win. Tyler Clippard allowed a run in the ninth. LaRoche homered twice off Marlins starter Mark Buehrle, giving LaRoche 23 this season. Buehrle hasnt won in four starts. He allowed four runs and seven hits in six innings. Miamis Jose Reyes had three hits, scored four runs and stole two bases. His 23-game hitting streak is tied with the New York Yankees Robinson Cano for the longest in the majors this season. Jordan Zimmermann started for Washington and allowed five runs -- four earned -- and seven hits in five innings. The Marlins broke a 3-3 tie in the fifth. Bryan Petersen led off with a single off Zimmermann, moved to second on Scott Cousins sacrifice, and scored when Espinosa fielded Reyes infield single and threw it away. Reyes stole second and scored on Lees double. Miami scored an unearned run in the seventh when Reyes led off with a walk, stole second, moved to third on an error by Lombardozzi and scored on a squeeze by Donovan Solano.
