KJT out injured. Achilles goes in the 200m.
I know it's harsh but I've never really been convinced by her to be honest. Always seems to be on the edge of tears and now the body is failing her too.

She seems to have had a lot of injuries, and certainly seems likely to break down at any moment. She managed a year or two fit and won one outdoor World title.
It's a marker event thanks to Denise Lewis and Jessica Ennis though, but her reputation seems to be in excess of her achievements.

Probably, but doesnt take away from the fact she she's lived her whole life in japan and the states and has no affinity to GB what so ever.
When she won the world champs a few years ago i thought she'd really kick on. Shame as she is a brilliant athlete who just has suffered from mental blocks and now she's over that, injuries holding her back.She seems to have had a lot of injuries, and certainly seems likely to break down at any moment.

Didn't she have a really bad injury before that? Knee or ankle, maybe Achilles again?
She may have been better advised to move to single events - her high jump would have won Rio gold, I think.
