Four-time Olympic champion Leon Marchand Singapore me hone wali world championships me keval 200 and 400m individual medley events me hi compete karenge. Unke coach Nicolas Castel ne ye inform kiya. Unhone 200m butterfly and 200m breaststroke drop karne ka decision liya hai.
23 years ke Frenchman ne Paris Olympics me 200 breaststroke, 200 butterfly, 200 and 400m individual medley events me gold medal jeeta tha, saath hi 4x100m medley me bronze medal bhi jeeta tha.
Castel ne Monday ko Franceinfo ko bataya, “Wo 200m butterfly and 200m breaststroke me part nahi lenge. Ye humne isliye chuna hai kyunki hum Olympics ke baad ke years me hain aur unhe pahle ya baad me usi din bina kisi race ke 200m medley me part lene ka chance kabhi nahi mila. Wo iss isolated 200m medley ko test karna chahte the aur dekhna chahte the ki wo kya kar sakte hain.”
World Championships me swimming events 27 July se 3 August tak Singapore me hongi.
