HAFNAOUI Ahmed (Tunisia)
I'm an 18 year old player. The only swimmer from Tunisia. I won the gold medal in the men's 400m swimming race!
What is amazing is the speed of its growth. His personal best before the tournament was 3: 48.68, which he had marked in 2019. In the first place, at the time of qualifying, he updated it for 3 seconds at a stretch and advanced to the final at the last minute of 8th place overall. It's only surprising to say that it eventually shortened his self-record by as much as 4 seconds 92. It's a dark horse. By the way, he set his biggest goal in his competitive life at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The result of this time is a feat that has won the gold medal more than planned(?).
The Olympic Games are still going on!
What kind of honor did the players in your country have?
Personally, I love the players from any country who can make a brilliant 大番狂わせ without losing to the strongest players.
The Olympics are still going on. Let's look forward to what kind of drama will be born.
