'A really tough double'published at 21:17 British Summer Time 30 July 2022
Scotland's Duncan Scott: "Real tough double. This Games doesn’t quite work in my favour. I think about a week ago they moved the 200m freestyle final back. But it’s just one of them, I've done plenty of doubles in my time. This one is no different, it’s just about trying to manage it through the rounds. Thought I did that well this morning. I'm glad it was 400m and not any more."
On singing on podium: "Absolutely yeah, Elijah and Deano were saying how bad my singing voice is. Need to take them for some karaoke after this."
Battling with Tom Dean: "Yeah we both love it. It's a really positive thing. It's a nice change being on different sides of the table this time. Scotland vs England. It’s always positive, we’ll rekindle the relationship as we get back to Team GB. It’s really good that's what we want to do in Paris… that 4 x 200m we won in Tokyo and we want to do the same in Paris.
Another double tomorrow? "We’ll see! The tough thing with this is there’s 600m of racing in the morning and then doing it again, so that’s 1200m in total. That’s tough for anyone. We’ll see."
