00:00Last year, I was examined 29 times.

00:03I never lost my confidence.

00:04Including this year, from the championship,

00:06from May to July,

00:08I was examined 21 times.

00:10I never lost my confidence.

00:11Today is my second time here.

00:14It's an internal examination.

00:16I'm looking forward to the results.

00:18I don't have any impression.

00:20Because they all draw us

00:22within the specified time and rules.

00:25So it's not a big deal.

00:30I love swimming.

00:31I love being a part of these amazing races.

00:33And I think tonight,

00:35seeing a 46.4 second 100 freestyle

00:38be swum next to me,

00:39I think the goalpost has definitely been shifted.

00:42That I would train harder than ever

00:44if I want to be competitive in that event.

00:46Pan's race, amazing.

00:48Very, very fast world record.

00:51He smashed it.

00:52And I'm sure that's only an opportunity

00:55for me, Kyle, and all the other guys

00:58to try and beat it in the future.

01:02Because that's what the Olympics are all about.

01:04Respect, fair play, and being competitive.
