Chinese hurdling sensation Liu Xiang is on his way to another round of warm-ups in Europe. His final preparations for the World Championships in August will consist of three matches: one each in Paris, Lausanne and Sheffield.

With the World Championships in Japan just one month away, the world record hurdler is hoping to do his best through the series.

Liu Xiang will first compete in the Paris stage of the Athletics Golden League. Four days after that he will hope for more glory at the Athletics Grand Prix in Lausanne,Switzerland,where he set the new world record last year. And he will also race in the International Athletics Grand Prix in Sheffield in another five days. This will also be his final match before the World Championships.

Liu said, "I have not set up a specific target for myself during the warm-up matches. Just try all my best. I have always a cool head to know what I should do, and what I shouldn't do."
