European Championship in favor of Frenchmen
by Zivka Deleva
French Freestyle and butterfly swimmer Frederick Bousquet won two golden and a silver medal at the European swimming Championship that ended on Sunday. Thanks to him, the French representation won in the 4x100m medley relay. In the 50m freestyle he came in front of Swedish swimmer Stefan Nystrand, for about 21.49 seconds. Bousquet is one of the most famous French swimmers at all the times. In April 26, 2009 he set the world record in the 50m freestyle. But, his glory lasted three months only, after the world’s swimming federation (FINA) took it away from him due to the enhancing suit he wore. Another curiosity about Bousquet is the fact that he is the first swimmer i! n the world that went under the 21/second mark on the distance. Completely full of himself, but with all the right to be, he shared with the world that he couldn’t be satisfied with anything else but a victory. The three other colleagues from his team didn’t want to hide their joy about winning the gold in the quartet discipline. "Our entire French swimming team couldn't have dreamed of a better conclusion" - said Hugues Duboscq. One thing is for sure, that this year’s Championship went into the glory of previous winners. Who’s good only approved that once again. For instance, Hungarian swimmer Katinka Hosszu, that already had 200m individual medley and silver in the 400m Individual Medley, this time, in front of her natives’ audience, was the best in the 200m butterfly. The Hungarian favourite Laszlo Cseh approved his title in the 400m IM and the 200m IM as well.
