Three time Olympic champion, 31 saal ke Adam Peaty, Team England ki 42-member swim squad ka sabse bada naam — aur sabse zyada umar wale athlete — hain, jiska announcement Tuesday morning ko kiya gaya.
Adam Peaty, jo Uttoxeter se belong karte hain, ab Commonwealth Games me lagataar chaar baar gold medal jeetne wale pehle British swimmer banne ki koshish kar rahe hain. Unhone apna multi-sport Games debut 12 saal pehle Glasgow me kiya tha.
Ab tak unke naam total chaar Commonwealth titles hain. Unhone 2018 ke Gold Coast Games aur chaar saal pehle Birmingham Games me pool events me gold jeeta tha.
Woh Tollcross International Swimming Centre me 100 metre breaststroke — jo unka signature event hai — aur 50 metre sprint event me compete karne ke eligible honge. 50 metre sprint me woh current reigning champion bhi hain.
Paris 2024 Olympics ke baad apne pehle bade event se pehle baat karte hue, Adam Peaty ne kaha, “Apne country ko represent karne ke liye select hona hamesha ek honour hota hai, aur home Commonwealth Games ki baat hi alag hoti hai.”
Unhone aage kaha, “Yeh event meri international career ka bhi ek bahut bada milestone hai, jo 12 saal pehle Glasgow me 2014 Commonwealth Games se start hua tha. Main is summer Scotland me compete karne ke liye especially excited hoon, kyunki mujhe pata hai sab log milkar ise ek brilliant occasion bana denge.”
Official competitions me unka naam start sheets par ab “Ramsay-Peaty” likha jaata hai, kyunki unhone pichhle December Bath Abbey me famous chef Gordon Ramsay ki beti Holly Ramsay se shaadi ki thi.
Is celebrity wedding me former England captain David Beckham bhi shamil hue the, lekin yeh ceremony Peaty ki maa ke saath chal rahi family feud ki wajah se thodi controversy me bhi rahi.
