Oscar wants a quick decision

OSCAR PISTORIUS faces an anxious wait before hearing whether he has won his appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport which would allow him to again compete against able-bodied athletes.

One consolation for the 'Blade Runner', who is challenging an International Association of Athletics Federations ban imposed in January, is that he could have an early decision from the CAS arbitrators. The two-day hearing ended in Lausanne with a promise that the decision could be announced in days rather than the normal few weeks. "We're hoping for a very quick decision," said the athlete's lawyer Jeffrey Kessler.
