Chinese Olympic champion and world record holder Liu Xiang is back at the top of the IAAF Men's 110m Hurdles Rankings after running second at the World Cup.

The Chinese hurdler moved to the top of the Event Rankings even though he clocked 12.03 seconds at the World Cup, slower than former World and Olympic champion Allen Johnson of the United States, who ran 12.96.

The previous leader, Dayron Robles of Cuba, slipped to second in the Rankings, followed by American Terren Trammell, while Allen Johnson moved up to 4th place this week.

In the Men's Overall Rankings, Liu is back in the Top 10 this week in 7th place, while Johnson jumped from 44th to 19th.
