It is being reported all throughout the Australian press that Ian Thorpe will make an announcement this Tuesday; or our Monday, as to whether he will swim at Australian Nationals. The story can be read here.
What concerns me most were these comments:
Hopefully Ian Thorpe will swim but the four articles I read suggest pretty boldly that he won't. Whatever Thorpe decides hopefully he is content with his decision and we will see him in Beijing.The 24-year-old is understood to have missed training sessions since returning to Australia in October from a three-month sojourn in Los Angeles.
National head coach Alan Thompson arrived at a session last Thursday to check on the progress of the Olympic champion but Thorpe didn't attend.
