Show Notes
Kiwi squash champion Joelle King won't be adding to her collection of medals in the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
The stripped-down Glasgow event will only feature 10 sports - with rugby sevens, hockey, cricket, road cycling and squash among the sports that got axed.
King says she can't change this decision - but she's got the 2028 Olympics to soften the blow.
"It's been bad news for all of us - but you've just got to crack on, you can't change the decision now."
