Suddenly, the country is going into lockdown and hotels are probably going to be closed. We had 36 hours to get out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLuckily I got tickets the same night. It\u2019s such a whirlwind. One minute you\u2019re training hard, everything\u2019s gone great, and then you have to leave.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While Le Clos has pool access at the moment, the only certainty at the moment is uncertainty.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThere\u2019s no real plan going forward. I have no coach, no training partners. I could be stuck here until the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they shut the gyms here, I don\u2019t have a plan B (for a pool). It\u2019s scary. I\u2019ve spoken to some guys literally stuck in their homes. They can\u2019t do training.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was told Penny Oleksiak, the Canadian Olympic champion, hasn\u2019t swum in 20 days in Toronto.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_382332\" style=\"width: 322px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-382332\" data-attachment-id=\"382332\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/chad-le-clos-has-tokyo-2020-doubts-after-hasty-exit-from-turkey\/chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1078,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;ILCE-7SM2&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1563821786&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Becca Wyant&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3-1024x684.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-382332\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"chad-le-close-200-fly-prelims-2019-world-championships_3\" width=\"312\" height=\"223\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-382332\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Becca Wyant<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The 27-year-old urged fellow athletes to continue to prepare for the Olympic Games \u2013 which are due to start on 24 July \u2013 and to be ready for any eventuality.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI urge everyone to focus as if the Olympics is going to happen.
