Jaymo Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Seems that COVID strikes again. She has tested positive before jetting of to Japan for the Olympics. There goes our skeet medal hopes and also her dreams and training for the past five years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite level sports haven't had to stop training, hopefully for many it was an extra years preparation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob85 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 If they keep putting athletes out over all of this they may as well cancel the Olympics as someone who does compete and wins a medal even though they are rank outsiders will be thinking of how hollow their victory is. Such a shame for Amber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmicblue Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 At least Amber tested positive here in UK and hadn't wasted two days in a plane on top of the disappointment of having to drop out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 It should have been cancelled, I know it's a shame for the athletes and coaches but better no event than, catching covid or going to a country where it's rampant. Not competing against the best isn't really a good victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
