24-year-old\u00a0Arno Kamminga\u00a0<\/strong>from the Netherlands has been on fire all-year long as he was expected to be a key player among the medalists in the 100 & 200 breaststroke at the Tokyo Olympic Games that were set to take place two weeks from now. But with the Olympics being move back a year, that gives every swimmer a chance to reset before chasing their Olympic dreams in 2021.<\/p>\n

Kamminga has showed no ill effects from the COVID-19 pandemic that has hindered so many athletes around the world. In unofficial suited time trials at his training base in Antwerp, Kamminga swam a 58.4 in the 100 breaststroke and a 2:08 in the 200, which was right at his season best times in the early days of 2020.<\/p>\n
