Ja, hetta hevur verið nevnt fyrr, at Phelps ætlar sær at svimja í stuttibuksum á World Cup í Stockholm og Berlin. Men nú hevur reachforthewall.com nøkur citat afturat frá Phelps sjálvum, har hann meira ella minni bjóðar Biedermann av, at gera tað sama.
“I’m going to have my jammer on,” Phelps said. “If anyone wants to put a jammer on, feel free. I’m getting ready for where the sport is going. If I’m going to be wearing this for the next three years, I’m going to start now.”
Men hetta merkir ikki at Phelps væntar sær at vinna, fyri tað um hann letur seg í so lítið. Hann viðgongur at Biedermann ‘knústi’ hann í summar, og at tað væl kann henda aftur nú. Men hann heldur seg altso til stuttibuksurnar allíkavæl.
“He crushed me this summer,” Phelps said. “If he destroys me, he’s going to destroy me … I’m focused on what I have to do.”
