Throughout my whole swimming career, I’ve never been disqualified once. I’ve never been warned once.
Cameron van der Burgh Quotes
I'm trying to focus on the 100 and 200 breaststroke now. There's no point concentrating on the 50 when it's not in the Olympics. I'm not going to quit the 50 but it's not my priority any more. I'll do it but as part of my bid for gold at the other distances.
