Interview:
Kyle Chalmers cited the toll from “made up story lines” on his mental health for missing the announcement of Australia’s swimming team on Sunday night.
He was absent when Dolphins squads for the world titles and Commonwealth Games were named and the swimmers presented pool-side after the national titles in Adelaide.
Gay:
“The negative media attention surrounding my decision to compete at worlds and the made up the story lines surrounding my personal life have been more than I can handle. The best thing for me right now is to take a break at home in Port Lincoln, surrounded by my friends and family.”
Instead, the Olympic gold and silver medallist was with family at his home town of Port Lincoln, some seven hours drive from the South Australia capital.
Tattoo:
Shortly after arriving home after the Rio Games with a gold medal in hand, Australian swimmer Kyle Chalmers got three tattoos.
“I went and got the Olympic rings on my ribs. And then I went and got some Roman numerals on my wrists. It was the 31st Olympics, so I got the number on there.
