Tracey Greenwood injury update

[Lift Studios]

Reports are Tracey tore a ligament in her thumb. It turned in the opposite direction and not a pretty sight. She will still be at the Olympia and will be doing all her strength moves.

Best wishes to Tracey and a speedy recovery before the Olympia.

I was at the show and witnessed the unfortunate accident. 

Tracey's routine started out as a "high flying" and intense but just 45 seconds in, she showed a twinge in her face while doing a straddle hold.  She even continued with her routine for a few more seconds after it before she realized it was truly a serious  injury she was dealing with.  Absolutely stunned, I watched as she walked off stage grasping her wrist. 

Truly a horrible thing to happen to any athlete, let alone one who is already qualified for the "O" and looked to be a top contender.

I hope she is able to recover and have heard that she still plans on competing (although this is unconfirmed and I only overheard this secondhand).

To Tracey, Get Well and stay strong.  Hopefully you are able to compete this coming weekend.  We're thinking of you!

Here are a few pics of Tracy at the show.  She looked fantastic and ready for the "O".  Let's hope she gets to show off her conditioning and routine this week!
