Today, in an interview in Raisport after the competition Ceccon said that he was aiming for double gold in Paris: 100 and 200 backstroke. In my opinion, it was the right decision, because there is no dominant player in the 200 backstroke. Secondly, if Marchand can aim for 3 individual golds, Ceccon can aim for 2. The biggest problem for the Italian team will be with the medley relay. I see 3 options: - waiting for Sette Colli with the hope that e.g. Burdisso or Codia in the 100 dolphin will be below 52 seconds, - betting on Razzetti (today he achieved 52 seconds, but at the top of his form he can get 0.5 seconds off it), - Lamberti in the backstroke and Ceccon in the butterfly (an option considered by the commentators during the Raisport broadcast.
