Triple Olympic champion Adam Peaty has declared himself fit to compete at next week’s Commonwealth Games.
Peaty broke his foot performing a lunge at his Tenerife training camp in May. The injury ruled him out of last month’s World Championships and meant he was a doubt to be part of the swimming team for the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
The 27-year-old was forced to wear a protective boot as a result and spent six weeks out of the water as he nursed himself back to health. In fact, Peaty has only been back in the pool swimming breaststroke for three weeks and diving for a few days.
