Lauren Mitchell Updates

There have been a couple of (slightly conflicting) news articles on Lauren Mitchell today:

http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/sport/a/-/other/13248377/mitchell-reduces-olympic-workload/
Former world gymnastics champion Lauren Mitchell will not be contesting the all-around competition at the London Olympics.

The WAIS scholarship holder has been nursing a shoulder injury and has decided to abandon her campaign to compete on all four apparatus focussing instead on the floor, beam and vault where she can make her greatest contribution to the overall team score where Australian finished sixth in Beijing four years ago.

AUSTRALIA'S leading gymnast Lauren Mitchell refuses to focus on London, knowing that the burden of a nation rests on her shoulders.


Although, people are increasingly turning to blogs for their news as blogs seem to produce higher quality coverage for sports like gymnastics, it is still good to get some coverage in the old media.
