Injured Misty May Pulls Out Of Dancing Show

Latest: Olympic volleyball star Misty May Treanor has pulled out of U.S TV talent show Dancing With The Stars after tearing her Achilles tendon.

The gold medallist is set for surgery this week.

Fellow contestant Brooke Burke confirmed the sad news in a radio chat on Los Angeles’ 104.3 MYfm on Monday morning.

She explained, “It’s such a sad situation… She’s outta the competition.

“You take somebody like her, who’s a supreme athlete and you think she’s one of the strongest in the bunch and we’re just doing stuff that we’ve never done before, and pushing our bodies to the limits. And, just like that, it’s over for her.

“The sad thing about Misty is, forget about the competition, this is her jumping mechanism. We’re all really concerned for her… It’s such a bummer.

“She heard a pop, so it’s really serious.”
