The 19 year old from Pavia closed his semifinal in third place, tomorrow the final
The 19 year old from Pavia Federico Burdisso wins the final in the 200 butterfly at the Tokyo Olympics. The semifinal was staged on the night between Monday and Tuesday, when it was already morning in Tokyo. Burdisso qualified with the seventh fastest time and finished his semifinal in third place, but with the fourth overall time: 1’55 “11. This result, almost identical to the qualifying time (1’55 “14), opened the doors to the final for him. The last act will be staged in the Japanese swimming pool tomorrow morning, when it will be 3.49 am in Italy.
