— Your mother’s birthday is on July 26. Have you prepared such a gift?
— This is the main gift, but there were also flowers and personal congratulations in the morning. Mom is very happy that I won the gold medal.

– What can you say about the result?
“I want to get out of the 26 seconds already so it’s not so embarrassing.” It’s my best result so far, although it could be even better.
— Will the Australians overtake the Americans in the overall Olympic standings?
— I think one of the Australians will win the 100m butterfly. And I hope they will be ahead of the USA overall. “I will support the Australian team,” Tatarinova told .
