Biography
He was the first Italian to break through the 48-second wall in the 100m freestyle and became European champion in the distance in 2016. Considered the beauty of Italian swimming, for some years, he has also been a model. In his spare time, he loves traveling and listening to music, to find the right charge before races. Tokyo will be his third time in the Olympics, but he already has Japan on his skin, as evidenced by his unique tattoo on his back that represents the Japanese ideogram of water.
