- Swimmer eases into 100m breaststroke semi-finals
- Peaty: ‘I’m glad the cobwebs are out now’
Adam Peaty admitted that the Tokyo 2020 Games feel “weird” and very different to a normal Olympics as he set the eighth fastest time in history to move into the 100m breaststroke semi-finals.
Peaty promised there was plenty more in the tank after winning his heat in 57.56sec – nearly a quarter of a second clear of his closest rival Arno Kamminga of the Netherlands – but accepted that it had been an unusual experience given the lack of crowds.
