Louis Smith: 'I'm now one of the old gymnasts'
Gymnast Louis Smith says he is glad to be back competing but now feels like "one of the old guys".
The 25-year-old took a break from the sport after winning individual silver and a team bronze at the 2012 Olympics, but has returned to compete in the Commonwealth Games.
He told 5 live's Eleanor Oldroyd: "I'm really excited about this Commonwealth games, the only depressing part is I'm now one of the old gymnasts."
