Not content to win the title in his first individual at World Championships, Florent Manaudou grabbed the world record in the 50 meters freestyle short course ( 20 “26) Friday in Doha.
Florent Manaudou is a giant. The young man in a hurry to London, Olympic champion in the 50 meters freestyle to the surprise in 2012, has become a colossus (not just by taking creatine). Not content with being in 24 years, the Taulier of the French swimming (pending return to his best Yannick Agnel), a status it has held since the beginning of perfectly week in Doha to deliver gold in 4x100m freestyle tricolor and silver in the 4x50m medley relay, Marseille has the world at his feet Friday by knocking out the 50 meters freestyle which is the new record holder World Short Course (20 “26).
A capital feat he built not in the joy of the first collective medals but the frustration of his first outings on the distance the day before. “I was not necessarily well in series and in half” , he confessed to the micro Fabien Gilot, his training gossip, converted consultant to Sport +. A breach in which Romain Barnier, coach Circle Swimmers of Marseille, was engulfed, praising Cesar Cielo, aware that hatred of defeat is driving his champion: “I knew that he was ready, but for that matter, we will push the vice until he gets mad at the risk of making it out of the competition, but I knew he was the strongest. “
Still, this final shot at the demonstration, the runner, the Italian Marco Orsi, accusing more than four tenths on arrival (20 “69) while the defending champion, Brazilian Cesar Cielo has failed him in third place more than half a second (20 “88). “It’s magic, I knew he was capable of great things” enthused Clement Cute eighth race (21 “35). ” There really has a impressive gap “, fell Romain Barnier. ” I did not win so easy today. (…) I did not expect to do as well, I am Cesar before, it makes me a little dénager (sic) “, reacted on his side the master of the sprint.
He who had come to seek his (or her ) first world title in Doha Qatar will leave with a first world record swiped at South African Roland Schoeman, who swam 20 “30 in 2009 and all polyurethane, Pietermaritzburg. And it is perhaps not finished listening to his coach, anxious to see Saturday in the final of 50-meter backstroke record after France established earlier in the semifinals (22 “97). ” S it manages all, it can make you a beautiful gift again tomorrow “, Romain Barnier warned. ” You have to win tomorrow (50m backstroke final) , and then he will remain the 100m (Saturday and Sunday) , that can make a nice weekend “, the person is already impatient. Deeply on!
