Ariarne Titmus may have already won a gold medal at Paris 2024, but she says that is despite the difficult conditions at the Olympic Village.
Ariarne Titmus has already added a third Olympic gold medal to her collection in Paris The Australian is now a triple gold medallist after her two triumphs at Tokyo 2021 and has won five Olympic medals in total. However, the 400m freestyle champion is not impressed with what the athletes are dealing with in Paris when it comes to their living conditions. She won the 400m freestyle on Saturday, but was disappointed that she could not break her own world record in the process.
‘That’s going to play a factor and the Australian team having their own portable air conditioners will be a welcome relief.’ He added on the Matty & The Missile podcast: ‘There will be many athletes across the two weeks of competition who miss out on a medal… because they’re unsettled by this new environment. ‘We haven’t seen this at an Olympic games before. We haven’t had this amount of complaints about a village in Olympics history.
