Without a record this time, the four-time Olympic champion easily won the 400m short course medley.
One more. The day after his world record in the 200m medley, and two days after his European record in the 100m medley, in the short course in Singapore, Léon Marchand won again this Saturday morning. This time, the four-time Olympic champion largely dominated the 400m medley in 3:58.45, far ahead of the Italian Alberto Razzetti (4:00.59) and the American Trenton Julian (4:04.46).
The only (minor) disappointment was that the Frenchman failed 15 hundredths of the French record over the distance held by… himself since his victory during the World Cup stage in Incheon (South Korea), on the 26 last October.
«I like it. I’m a little tired but I had a good time, I’m happy. It was really nice here, the crowd is crazy», reacted Léon Marchand when he came out of the water. The glutton of the pools will end his weekend with the 200m freestyle, scheduled for later in the day this Saturday. Then, he will meet in Budapest to compete in the Short Course World Championships, from December 10 to 15.
