CHANGE OF STROKE
She used to focus on the medley and backstroke events, but changed to competing in breaststroke in 2021 and will compete in the 100m breaststroke at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Her father represented Monaco in breaststroke events at two editions of the Olympic Games [1992 and 1996]. "The anecdote is pretty funny. I've been in the medley and backstroke for six years, but [in 2021] I had a breakthrough in breaststroke. I had all of my best times in this event. It's a nice nod to my dad anyway. Two Olympians in the same family is amazing. It's a great story and it increases my motivation." (lagazettedemonaco.com, 16 Jul 2021; SportsDeskOnline, 20 Jul 2021; monacomatin.mc, 08 Jul 2021)
