Alessandro Miressi was the protagonist of the final day of the Italian Winter Swimming Championships. The 25-year-old from Turin won the 100m freestyle in the Stadio del Nuoto in Riccione: A race time of 47.61 guaranteed him an individual pass for Paris 2024. The Italian, (photo by ANSA), had already secured a national spot for the Olympic Games in July as part of the 4x100m freestyle relay team at the World Championships in Fukuoka. However, the time recorded at the national event cements his individual participation in France in the summer. Alberto Razzetti (photo ANSA) will also be in the French capital. After qualifying in the 200m medley he booked a place in the 400m medley by triumphing in Riccione with a time of 4’09.29, a new Italian record. To recap, there are five swimmers who left the Championships with passes sealed for Paris 2024: Gregorio Paltrinieri, Alberto Razzetti, Thomas Ceccon, Benedetta Pilato and Alessandro Miressi.
