200m butterfly silver medalist Մ Leon Marshand, who qualified for the 200m medley final on the same day, had a great run. “I dowas very excited for tonight“He smiled at the end of the session.
How did you live this day?
Leon Merchant. “It was a big challenge, I think I did well, I am happy to be in the final, to get one medal. I was mainly playing for a medal, for the time, I didn’t watch much, but I did it for 53 minutes, it’s still quite crazy. (…) I was very excited for tonight because I know I can chain two races at a high level. It actually went very well there. We already had our plan in mind, so it was easier for me to relax between each race. ” It was difficult to stay focused on the podium, especially since the whole pool was shouting (for the victory of the Hungarian Milak, the editor’s note), so it was very good.
