4 Quotes by Laure Manaudou

There have been some hard times, people around me supported me.

In Athens I was 17 and I didn't have any expectations. I was just swimming fast and racing everybody. I didn't have the joy after my races in 2007. I didn't want to go to Beijing. I had to for sponsors.

Even if I flop, I still qualified for the Games, and that was my goal. My target was to be at an Olympics for the third time with people I like.

Between Italy and France, I have chosen Luca Marin, the love of my life.
