Montgomery set for comeback
Tim Montgomery
Montgomery has just celebrated his son's birth
World 100m record holder Tim Montgomery is set to return to competition next Tuesday after a month's absence.

The 28-year-old American will take part in the IAAF Super Grand Prix in Stockholm.

Montgomery has not raced since finishing second behind European champion Dwain Chambers in Glasgow in late June. He returned home after that race following the birth of his and Marion Jones's first child.

Montgomery, who is bidding for his first major individual title in next month's world championships in Paris has had disappointing form this season.

His season's best is 10.04sec, a far cry from the 9.78 he ran in Paris last September to set the record.

Following Stockholm, the two-time world 100m medallist is set to run at the Norwich Union Grand Prix in London on 8 August followed by the two Golden League meets in Berlin, on 10 August, and Zurich five days later.
