Špotáková reunites with former coach Černý ahead of Rio

The Olympic javelin champion Barbora Špotáková has announced she will train for next year’s games in Rio de Janeiro with Rudolf Černý, a coach she parted company with in 2010. After ending her association with Jan Železný, Špotáková (34) was without a trainer this year and performed disappointingly at the Athletics World Championships in Beijing. The javelin world record holder, who previously worked with Rudolf Černý for 11 years, said Rio was likely to be her last Olympics and she wanted to give it her all.
