However, the English Olympian still has a chance to redeem himself at the third and last leg of the competition, ready to kick off this week in Budapest.

Very happy with my first appearances of the year. Lots to learn but was great to be in the mix with the best in the World again – also taking a huge amount of confidence from my 50m speed.”

He also lost to the same competitor in the 100-meter breaststroke finals, but he did not let the defeat embitter him, and he appreciated Haiyang on his social media post, and his “I’m bothered about the challenge to myself” was also a highlight of the World Cup.
