UK Athletics performance chief Neil Black believes that Jessica Ennis-Hill will be fit for next month's World Championships.

The Olympic heptathlon champion, who competed at the London Anniversary Games over the weekend, may rule herself out of the event in Moscow due to an Achilles injury.

"I think she's got a good chance of competing at Moscow," Black told Radio 4. "It was incredible to see her coming back and competing at Loughborough through the week then seeing her hurdle and long jump.

"The team around her, led by coach Toni Minichiello, have done phenomenal work. A decision will be made in the next couple of days."

Ennis-Hill finished fourth in the 100m hurdles at the weekend.
