General
DISTANCE PREFERENCE
He specialises in 400m, 800m and 1500m freestyle but prefers the shortest distance. "The 400m is a tactical distance, where a lot is decided when you make the last dash, switch up a pace, and step up your footwork. You have to think at every metre of the distance. I find competing more interesting when it is more difficult. Therefore, of all the distances that I swim, I like the 400m most." (sport.cap.ru, 21 Aug 2019)
