Park Tae Hwan Wins Silver

A little bit of noteworthy information for any who visit.

Swimming hero, Park Tae Hwan of South Korea has won Silver in both the men's 400m and 200m individual races!

Chukkahaeyo!

Park swam the 400m on Saturday, after almost not qualifying for it that morning. Officials initially ruled him disqualified for a false start in the qualifying heat. After South Korea contested the ruling, FINA, the sport's global governing body, overturned the decision allowing him to advance to the final where he won Silver.

On Monday, July 30th, he swam in the 200m freestyle and took Silver once again. But this time sharing the podium with China's Sun Yang, the 400m champion from Saturday.

Awesome news for South Korea!
