Hidden Talent: French Olympic Star Leon Marchand Opts For Disguise
French Olympic swimming hero Leon Marchand said Wednesday his record-breaking exploits in the Paris pool have changed his life so much that he often needs to don a disguise to evade attention. The 22-year-old won all four of his individual races at the Games -- the 200m butterfly, 200m breaststroke and 200m-400m medley double. It thrust him into elite company as the first male swimmer to do so at a singles Games since American legend Michael Phelps in 2008. However, fame has its occasional downside.
