Louise Hazel considering Commonwealth Games comeback

Heptathlete Louise Hazel has confirmed she is considering making a comeback for this year's Commonwealth Games.  Hazel said in September that she was retiring, but described Jessica Ennis-Hill's announcement of her pregnancy as a "game changer".  The 28-year-old current Commonwealth champion said "the temptation is there" to defend her title in Glasgow later this year.  "My body is still in good shape. It's definitely something I'm not ruling out."

Jessica Ennis-Hill announced last Friday that she was expecting her first child and would miss the Glasgow Games in late July.  Louise Hazel, who won gold in Delhi in 2010, will consider a welcome return over the coming weeks.
