Felix Sanchez, who won an Olympic gold medal for the Dominican Republic in the 400 meter hurdles, called for local support to the International Association Athletics Federation Grand Prix scheduled for 1-4 May at the Juan Pablo Duarte Olympic Center stadium. Jose Ludwig Rubio, president of the Dominican Athletics Federation, says there is the possibility that Tim Montgomery, world record holder in the 100 meter dash, may compete. The DR has two IAAF ranked athletes, Felix Sanchez, gold medal winner in the Athens Olympics, and Joelin Santos, ranked 12th in the 400 meters.
