Daiya Seto participated in the competition, which started on the 4th, for the first time after the suspension of activities due to women's problems was lifted, and won the men's 400-meter individual medley, which has been appointed as the Olympic representative.
The "Japan Open", in which top swimmers participate, will be held from the 4th to the 4th at the Tokyo Aquatics Center in Koto-ku, Tokyo, which will be the venue for the Olympic Games.
Seto was canceled from his contract due to his own women's problems and was suspended by the Japan Swimming Federation, but was canceled at the beginning of the year.
In this tournament, we have entered the third event as "TEAM DAIYA", which consists of ourselves and support staff.
On the first day, he participated in the men's 400-meter individual medley, which has been nominated for the Olympic team, and passed the qualifying in second place overall.
In the final, he was good at butterfly strokes, and in the second half, he won the championship by avoiding the catch-up of other players while slowing down.
The time was 4: 12.57, which was about 6 seconds slower than my personal best set in January last year.
