Double Olympic medalist Kliment Kolesnikov said he was counting on a faster result in the final of the Friendship Games at a distance of 100 meters freestyle.
Kolesnikov won Friday with a score of 47.97 seconds. The second was Vladislav Grinev (48.71), the third – Vladislav Reznichenko (48.91).
– I thought the result would be a little faster, but overall it’s ok. I realized that I felt the result less than my coach could predict,” Kolesnikov told . – Now plus or minus 0.1 is correct, then it will matter.
– Usually on the 100m crawl we have a tougher fight.
– I thought there would be time closer to the preliminary swim, with Vlad, for example. I thought I was swimming tied with Vlad. Initially, I was guided by the fact that when I return I will breathe on the left side and see the guys. But I was a little early and I worked until the end. The weather is a little worse than expected, but in general so far.
