After a win in the 100 Breast at the Knoxville Pro Swim, Olympian and World Champion Nic Fink looks to make waves at the Doha World Champs in February. With high-level competition like Adam Peaty, Niccolo Martinenghi, and Arno Kamminga, Fink welcomes the opportunity to race at the highest level just months before the US Olympic Trials in June.
glad to see these guys so candid about being broken down. Some teams arent taking that approach as much.
Time for Fink to be the 100 breast winner and not a bridesmaid.
Is Fink swimming all 3 breaststroke races?
I’d be surprised if he’s not.
He’s right regarding Doha, it’s not common to get that level of high international competition during an Olympic year before the Olympics. Should be interesting to see how people who do Worlds and then the Olympics 5 months later do.
Agreed. Practicing managing the prelims/semis/finals racing at a high level can be very useful
It is probably beneficial unless you’re a top level distance swimmer like Ledecky or Finke who doesn’t need more racing experience, then maybe it’s better to keep grinding out yardage. Then there’s guys like Dressel who weren’t in form to make the team so they have no choice but to keep training.
