Leon Marchand got in a lot of racing at the first World Cup stop in Carmel, although the 4x Olympic champ didn’t win a single race. When he raced in finals (200 Back, 200 IM, 200 Breast), he was beaten 2/3 times by his training partners at Texas. Marchand said he has gotten a lot out of his training partners this fall, stating, “I lose every day. We learn hot to win, learn how to lose”.

Hello, I’m a swimming fan from South Korea who enjoys Swimsam. Sorry to leave a comment that isn’t related to this article, but I’d like to go see the 15th National Games of china swimming event in November, so if anyone knows how to pay online and get tickets, could I get some help?
Great.
Honest and he doesn’t seem to affect him terribly and discourage him.
It’s not so bad and his times are quite good (especially his 200 bk).
I think it’s a good lesson for him to lose in a international meet (it’s not the olympics or worlds either) and as he said he is used to it in his texas squad.
Impressive mindset and he trusts himself and his training.
Leon is the man, he’s going to summit himself as the best swimmer of all time within the next couple of years. Pro swimmers go to Texas to train with Leon, he makes everyone around him better obviously. I have never heard any. Anyone say anything bad about his personality or his character
He isn’t going to kiss you bro relax
The glaze is insane
doing tricks on it
It’s going to be pretty tough to win more medals and break more WRs than Phelps did. Not only was Phelps pretty good, but he also swam for USA which gave him many more relay medals than Leon will be able to get.
and Summer too.
Only individual golds count for these two of xcourse.
We could still compare the two across individual events.
I don’t think that #wr number should be very a variable we should weigh too strongly. Phelps did all that in an era where swimming was getting massively optimized, and swimsuit technology was improving drastically across the board. 2000-2009 was a crazy decade for that. He was at the right time and place to get 39 world records.
Marchand is much faster than Phelps ever was in the 400 IM and 200 IM but he may very well only lower the record once for both of those as opposed to Phelps lowering the 400 IM 7 times and the 200 IM 8 times.
That being said Phelps was one… Read more »
Texas is the place to go to reach new heights in your career. Always has been but even more now.
He has to compete until he wins an event
Who tf is beating Marchand in practice?
Hubi in back, Shaine in fast fly. Carson and Rex are apparently beasts in color sets.
Have to imagine it’s a war of attrition everyday in the Texas pro group.
My comment was my attempt at baiting Coleman into saying he’ll do another practice&pancakes at Texas soon
I mean… I will lol with US Open in Dec and Pro Swim in Jan, we’ll hopefully make something work
We need as many as possible, Practice and Pancakes is the best thing out a swimswam
That would be awesome!
Oh kinda forgot they’re hosting a bunch of meets coming up….
Thank you Coleman!
Summer
Bro ain’t the fastest freestyler in the group.
i guess we wont see him at the other stops? Bummer
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.
I didnt read that book in high school and I’m certainly not reading it in the swimswam comment section
Honestly it’s a reminder that life used to be really really boring… we are spoiled, well it’s its own nightnare in itself my I digress
It was the BLURST of times?!!
That’s why he’s the GOAT
Maybe to France…..
lol
