    See Q&A with Eamon Sullivan on Border Mail

    JACK BAKER: Eamon, you’re back living in Perth and enjoying a year off competitive swimming, is Rio 2016 Olympics still in your sights?

    EAMON SULLIVAN: It’s definitely on my list. I just had shoulder surgery in November last year and I’m a couple of days away from being able to get back into the water. I’m having the year just to refresh and get the body back to 100 per cent and I’ll start racing again towards the end of the year. The first race back will probably be at the Commonwealth Games trials but the main goal is getting to Rio.
