Léon Marchand wins the 200m short course medley in Shanghai and breaks the European record

Marchand will still be in contention on Sunday in Shanghai before competing in the next two stages of the Short Course World Cup, in Incheon (South Korea) and Singapore over the next two weeks. There he will continue his quest for victories and records: “ The small challenges are the records to be sought for example. This morning, I beat Jérémy Stravius’ French record, I’m quite proud, it was cool (smile) and this evening, I beat the recordd’Europe (1’50”85, held by the Greek Andreas Vazaios since 2019), it’s so good. These are small records, times to go after, things like that. As I will repeat these races for three weeks, it will allow me to improve things. »
