Jodie Henry will miss Beijing due to injury

The Australian: "... Henry said she would not be competing in the Olympic selection trials in Sydney in late March, ending her dream of defending her 100m freestyle title in Beijing in August.

Had the worst fears been realised, Henry also would have announced her retirement from the sport but thankfully, while she admitted she had given some thought to giving the sport away, she announced she would swim on.

But first she has to overcome the complicated muscle imbalance in her pelvic region that has made training at times an agony for her. ..."

Well that's no fun! I hate to say this but I suspect a couple more swimmers ill drop out as well.
