TOKYO: Less than a day after his exit from the 2020 Olympic Games, Joseph Schooling sits on a foldable chair in the shadow of the hulking Tokyo Aquatics Centre.
His demeanour is calm and he is ready to talk.

On Thursday, the 2016 Olympic champion failed to qualify for the 100m butterfly semi-finals. He clocked 53.12s in his heat and was 44th overall.
And just like he did in the mixed zone after his race, Schooling does not shy away from dissecting his performance.
“I gave it my best. And if my best was that today, it doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be the same tomorrow. And I expect it to be better,” Schooling told CNA.
But it doesn’t make it sting any less.

“Right now, it is a tough learning curve. It's a painful one, especially at the Olympics. But at the same time, if I could change anything over the last 15 months, no, I have no regrets,” he said.
“I have no regrets going to Virginia. I have no regrets maturing to the person that I am today. I have no regrets with the performance in the pool. I am disappointed, but I wouldn't change that for anything in the world.”
Schooling masks the disappointment and hurt well. But it is still there, simmering below the surface.
“(I've) definitely moved away from disappointment, and more of an upset feeling. The disappointment is still there, but I think it's going to take a bit longer than 12 hours to fully process what happened,” he said.

I don't understand what's coming from him? He had all the time in the world to train for this Olympics n now he's saying he has no regrets after finishing last! What cock is he talking? U mean prior to the tournament, he managed to clock under 51sec during all the practices? I seriously doubt!
He was just trying his luck in Tokyo hoping miracle will happen..

Schooling has just lose some of his endorsements. No respectable business would want the last place swimmer of the swimming heats to represent their company.

He needs to sack his coach and backroom staff if he wants to improve. The current physical training, nutritional and mental strength training is not suitable for him.

Defending his title is more difficult having to beat his own best time. He has no backing of PAP gahmen whom do not support sport event economy.....

Orlumpiak is a BE economy to scam the world on network economy....

Just don't join don't die, why compete with angry angmohs who take sports to vent out their anger...
