Hwang Seon-woo (19, Gangwon Provincial Office), the ‘signboard of Korean swimming’, pledged to win the 200m freestyle in a row.

Earlier, Hwang Seon-woo failed to advance to the men’s 100m freestyle final at the 2022 FINA Short Course World Swimming Championships. In the men’s 100m freestyle semifinal held at the Sports and Aquatic Center in Melbourne, Australia on the afternoon of the 14th (Korean time), he ranked 9th out of 16 with a time of 46.41 seconds, unfortunately missing the final stage where 8 players competed. 메이저사이트

Hwang Sun-woo now leaves the 800m relay and 200m freestyle events. The 800m relay qualifiers will start at 10:30 am on the 16th, and the 200m freestyle qualifiers will start at 9:30 am on the 18th. Hwang Seon-woo is scheduled to cross the water in the 1st group, 3 lanes and the 4th group, 4 lanes, respectively.

According to the Korea Swimming Federation, Hwang Seon-woo said, “I finished the 100m freestyle event. The local weather is cold and I am playing in an unfamiliar outdoor swimming pool. It is very difficult to manage my condition.” I will prepare by focusing on the 800m and 200m freestyle,” he said, expressing his feelings ahead of the preliminary round.

Next, Hwang Seon-woo said, “In the 800m relay race, my goal is to advance to the finals and achieve good results by raising individual skills to the maximum. In the 200m freestyle, I won first place in the last competition. I want to repay you with love.
