Jamaica's Veronica Campbell-Brown has had her gold medal run snapped. Campbell-Brown finished fourth in the 200 meters in London on Wednesday night. That ended her run of two Olympic championships — she won the gold in 2004 and 2008. "I have to be grateful. I'm healthy," said Campbell-Brown, who won bronze last week in the 100 meters. "My objective was to at least get a medal. It wasn't in my favor this time. It's ok." The win this time went to American Allyson Felix, who lost to Campbell-Brown in the last two Olympics. "I'm happy for her. I know that she wanted it," Campbell-Brown said. — Jenna Fryer — Twitter http://twitter.com/jennafryer ___ EDITOR'S NOTE — "Eyes on London" shows you the Olympics through the eyes of Associated Press journalists across the 2012 Olympic city and around the world.
