Croydon Harriers Martyn Rooney will compete in the World Championships in the 400m after winning his appeal against non-selection.
Rooney had been selected for the 4x400m relay team, but not the individual discipline.
However, after an appeal to UK Athletics, the 28-year-old will now take his place on the starting line in Beijing in both the relay and individual race.
Rooney, who ran a season best of 45.41 seconds to finish third in the 400m at the Stockholm Diamond League meeting last week, told Radio Leicester: "Unfortunately, there are some things that I am not allowed to say with the appeal process.
"I don't think Stockholm hurt my chances.
"Beating the people that I beat in Stockholm showed that I'm more than capable of racing against the best guys in the world and that's pretty much the criteria they wanted us to hit."
