A Team Scotland spokesperson said; “We can confirm that gymnast Emma White has sadly been forced to withdraw from the Games due to injury. Emma has ruptured her posterior cruciate ligament, which means that she will no longer be able to compete. It is hugely disappointing for both Emma and her team mates.”

Emma said: “I am better prepared than I have ever been so it is very disappointing to know that I won’t be able to compete next week. I know that my team mates have been through the same preparation so I really hope they do well.”
