Covid Strikes Paris Olympics: British Star Swimmer Tests Positive After Winning Silver
Adam Peaty tested positive for Covid at the Paris Olympics on Monday, the British team said, a day after winning silver in the 100m breaststroke despite apparently feeling under the weather. The decorated 29-year-old "is hopeful to be back in competition for the relay events later in the swimming programme", according to a Team GB statement. "Adam Peaty began feeling unwell on Sunday, ahead of his men's 100m breaststroke final," it said.
