Bruised egos and shattered dreams were quite evident yesterday as three Olympic medallists failed to make the cut for the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro Brazil, on August 5-21.

Olympic silver medalist Sally Kipyego, Olympic bronze medalist Thomas Longosiwa and 2008 Olympic bronze medalist Edwin Soi saw their dreams go up in smoke during the national trials at Kipchoge Keino Stadium in Eldoret yesterday.
