The three-time Olympic gold medalist, coached solely by husband\u00a0<strong>Shane Tusup<\/strong>, continued to distance herself in early 2016 when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/katinka-hosszu-odds-hungarys-swimming-federation-153627417.html?ref=gs\" target=\"_blank\">she tore up a monetary contract<\/a> that would&#8217;ve required her to promote the Federation.<\/p>\n<p>2012 Olympic gold medalist, Gyurta, took a more solemn approach, noting, &#8220;You know things in\u00a0Hungarian swimming are a problem, and the irony is that the swimmers \u2013 the whole matter should be about \u2013 will suffer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Federation is facing major changes as they race towards the 2017 FINA World Championships, which will be held in Budapest next summer. Additionally, the city is one of three candidates vying for the chance to host the 2024 Olympic Games.<\/p>\n<p>No potential candidates for the now vacant presidency have been revealed as of yet and it is unclear how, or if, Gyarfas&#8217; resignation will affect his position as the vice president of FINA.<\/p>\n<p><em>More about Gyarfas&#8217; resignation can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/propeller.hu\/itthon\/3253932-lemondott-gyarfas-tamas\" target=\"_blank\">Propeller.hu<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/sports\/sport-others\/hungarian-chief-tamas-gyarfas-quits-after-swimmers-demand-change-4403460\/\" target=\"_blank\">Express Sports<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fortnight ago Hungarian Olympians\u00a0Katinka Hosszu and\u00a0Daniel Gyurta\u00a0expressed discontent about the Hungarian Swimming Federation and called for the resignation of its president,\u00a0Tamas Gyarfas.
