Nice try Chad, we're not falling for that

Pretty great competition in Sweden for team Lithuania. Danas Rapšys with two golds and a bronze, as well as a NR in 200m. freestyle and the nr. 1 time in the world at the moment.

Giedrius Titenis already took two bronzes in 100 and 200m. breaststroke respectively.

On top of these results, two of our developing athletes reached the qualification mark for European Championships in 100m. butterfly and 100/200 backstoke. Fair to say, it's a solid start to the season.

Assuming it's true (there's always two sides to a story, but why would he - Shane Tusup lie about it?), Katinka Hosszu is now dead-last on my list of favourite swimmers.
