Triple Olympic medalist Yulia Efimova will participate in the Bahamas Championships. As learned, the athlete flew early for the competition, which will begin on June 20.
She is registered in three distances: 50, 100 and 200 m breaststroke. The Olympic Games program only includes 100 and 200 m distances using this swimming method. The start of the 100m breaststroke is scheduled for June 23, the day of the deadline for submitting a qualifying result for participation in the Games.
This departure is the last chance for the athlete to qualify for the Paris Games.
Efimova is the only Russian swimmer to benefit from neutral status. Previously, she told that she intended to qualify for the Games.
