Ariarne Titmus says she’s never had a better preparation, while Cam McEvoy has revealed he’s clocking personal bests in training ahead of the Olympics in Paris.
Two of Australia’s best gold medal hopes, Ariarne Titmus and Cam McEvoy, have fired a warning shot by declaring they are in better condition than the lead-up to last year’s world championships where they thrashed their rivals.
The 23-year-old regained her 400m freestyle world record at last year’s world championships in Japan with a memorable win over Ledecky and Canadian teenager Summer McIntosh that she regards as her finest performance. Australia have four swimmers with a No.1 world ranking going into individual swimming events in Paris. They are Titmus , McEvoy , Kaylee McKeown and Sam Short . There are plenty of other gold medal chances across nine days of action.
