The countdown will start next Wednesday, then there are 100 days until the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

One of Germany's greatest hopes for gold is swimmer Florian Wellbrock, 23. Born in Bremen, he did a great job in 2019: He was the first swimmer to win gold in the pool (1500 meters) and in the open water (ten kilometers) at a World Cup.

WELT reached him during a short break from training.

WORLD:

Mr. Wellbrock, these games will be different from what the world has ever seen. Right that they take place?
