Tunisian swimming continues to shine on the international scene. Champion Ahmed Jaouadi confirmed his status by winning a second gold medal over the 400 meter freestyle (NL), this weekend during the Mare Nostrum Swim Tour in Canet-en-Roussillon (France).
Jaouadi won with authority in this Olympic basin race (50 m), signing a time of 3: 46.60, before a raised competition.
Rami Rahmouni, a young hope of Tunisian swimming, also distinguished himself in this same test, by winning the bronze medal thanks to a time of 3: 50.85. A promising performance for the future of this swimmer in full ascent.
This victory in Canet-en-Roussillon marks a new success for Ahmed Jaouadi, already a winner of the 400m NL during the Barcelona stage, disputed last Thursday. On this occasion, he also won the silver medal on the 800 m freestyle, with a time of 7: 46.37.
The pond nostrum swim tour, a prestigious circuit of the international calendar, allows the best swimmers in the world to compete in several stages in the Mediterranean. Tunisian performances confirm the excellent dynamic of national swimming, a few months before the major summer meetings.
