Bermuda Olympian Roy Allan Burch has announced on Social Media the following:
It's been made definite that I won't be competing in Rio. Without going into to much detail I was given up on. Despite that I couldn't have come that far without those who ended up giving up on me in the end. It's bitter sweet but from a life perspective I was able to regain full health and strength of my body.
Thanks again to everyone who kept sending the positive vibes my way. 4 weeks in Bermuda and a Somerset win at Cup Match will be what I'm looking forward to.
