Dai Greene

World 400 metres hurdles champion Dai Greene will captain Great Britain's athletics team at the Olympics.

The 26-year-old is one of Team GB's best hopes for gold on the track as he looks to add the Olympic title to his world, European and Commonwealth crowns.

The Welshman said: “It is an incredible privilege to be asked to captain the British athletics team at any time, but to be given the honour at a home Olympic Games is just incredible.”

Greene, who has been chosen for the honour ahead of the likes of Jessica Ennis and Mo Farah, will captain the 78-strong team.
