London 2012 Olympics: gymnast Daniel Keatings reveals misery at missing out with Team GB Keatings" place in the squad, along with that of Ruslan Panteleymonov, has been filled by 19 year-olds Max Whitlock and Sam Oldham, with Louis Smith, Daniel Purvis and Kristian Thomas the others selected. But for the past month Keatings has been in top injury-free form, picking up two silver medals at two Grand Prix events against the top nations. He also took two golds and three bronze medals at the recent national championships. As one of the country's best pommel horse gymnasts and with experience from the Beijing Olympics, Keatings had been expected to be a strong challenger for a medal in London. He has been named as a reserve and will be called up if any of the Olympic gymnasts are injured, but he said he had found continuing to train "really tough." "I have tried to turn around all of that emotion and anger that I should be in the team to train as hard as I can and prove to everyone what I am capable of," Keatings said. I have nothing against the guys who made the team; we are the best of friends, we have grown up together, we are like family and I want to see them succeed. So, I have picked myself up so that I am not creating a bad atmosphere. I am trying to keep things up to a good motivational level. Keatings said his team-mates were all "gutted" for him and also perplexed at the selection decisions. "But the selection is not down to them," he added.
