Adam Peaty Withdraws from Relay Due to Covid

Adam Peaty, after testing positive for Covid-19, will miss the mixed 4x100m medley relay heats at the Paris Olympics, but he may still participate in the final if Team GB qualifies and he recovers in time. Peaty, who won silver in the 100m breaststroke, will be replaced by James Wilby in the relay heats. Despite the setback, Peaty could also join the men's 4x100m medley relay, where he helped Great Britain qualify for the final by clocking the fifth-fastest time. His absence is a significant blow, but Team GB remains hopeful for his return in subsequent events. Peaty expressed his determination to recover quickly to support his team in the upcoming relays.
