Sasha Zhoya has pulled out of the Philadelphia Grand Slam Track meet aiming for a full recovery ahead of key summer races.
French hurdler Sasha Zhoya will not compete in this weekend’s third leg of the Grand Slam Track series in Philadelphia, citing an Achilles tendon issue that has persisted since early May.
The 22-year-old is prioritizing his long-term health and performance, especially with major competitions looming in the coming weeks.
Zhoya had already skipped the Atlanta meet on May 16th after aggravating his tendons during an intensive training camp in Florida.
Despite the discomfort, he impressed in the Miami leg of the Grand Slam Track series, clocking personal bests of 13.06 seconds in the 110m hurdles and 10.36 in the 100m.
However, medical staff advised caution, prompting his decision to withdraw from further U.S. races until later this summer.
