Not Giving Up on Olympic Dream – Amy Broadhurst to Remain Amateur
Amy Broadhurst will continue to chase her Olympic Dream.
The Louth native sparked plenty of promoter interest when she revealed she was weighing up her options post failing to qualify for the Paris 2024 Games last month.
The World, European and Commonwealth gold medal winner, hinted her Olympic journey may be over and she was ready to step into the pros.
Speaking at the time she said: âI donât know whatâs next. I donât know if Iâll ever strap an amateur glove around my hand again or if Iâll go pro.â
It was clear at the time the Dundalk boxer was speaking through heartache immediately after being pipped at the Paris post by Team GBâs Rosie Eccles in a tight tense all-action Olympic qualification fight.
With time to reflect and presumably, with time to take advice, she has decided to target next yearâs qualifiers.
Yesterday she shared a video stating as much.
Broadhurst has two more chances to reach Paris via qualifiers next year.
The decorated prospect would be highly fancied to qualify especially as the top four in Europe wonât be competing as they secured an Olympic berth at the recent European Games.
