Overview
- Peaty won the British 100m breaststroke on Tuesday in 58.97 seconds, the No. 2 time worldwide this year, ahead of Filip Nowacki and Max Morgan.
- He followed that with the 50m title on Wednesday in 26.64, a result that confirmed his selection for the European Aquatics Championships in Paris.
- He has set a course for Los Angeles 2028 after the 50m breaststroke returned to the Olympic program, and he says the next two years will be the hardest of his career.
- The comeback follows a spell when he almost quit and raced through a COVID infection before taking 100m silver in Paris, as teenagers Nowacki and Morgan rise at home.
- He credits father-in-law Gordon Ramsay for steady support during the restart, and at 33 in 2028 he could become the oldest British swimmer to win Olympic gold.
