The 2022 world champion withdrew from the Britis trials on Friday and will need a lot of help to make it to the Olympics. "It’s all completely out of his control now," Geoff Wightman to LRC. "It depends on results on the weekend. For 1500, there’s almost no chance because it’s first two plus Josh and the first two are very likely to have the standard."
