A scent of France blows on Budapest!
While waiting for the ogre Marchand a little later on Wednesday evening, the Blues have indeed won two medals in a few minutes at the World Swimming Championships.
After Maxime Grousset's silver in the 100m freestyle final, Analia Pigrée took third place in the 50m backstroke final in 27′'40, just ahead of Canadian Kylie Masse (27′'31) and the American Katharine Berkoff (27′'39)
“It was really fantastic.
Already in the semi-finals we were tight, reacted the Guyanese on France 4. It really didn't matter at all.
The start and the touch made the difference.
I really worked on these two sectors.
I lengthened the touched, I go from afar to touch the wall.
I go through all the emotions.
The atmosphere in the team is exceptional.
Maxime Grousset warmed the line for me, he was in 3rd like me and I knew he had won a great silver medal… In addition I am short-sighted so I did not see right away that I had a medal.
