Beijing Olympic swimming gold medalist Park Tae-hwan will begin a special training session in the United States next week ahead of the World Championship in July.
"Park will head to the U.S. on April 16 and start his six-week training at the University of Southern California. He will return in late May," Yonhap News Agency quoted his agency SK Telecom Sports Team as saying Tuesday.Park, who seized 400-meter men's freestyle gold and 200-meter silver in Beijing last year, trained at the same venue in January. He will be coached by Dave Salo again, according to his agent.
The 19-year-old swimmer, aiming to clinch victory in the 400-meter men's freestyle event at this year's World Championship tournament in Rome, will focus on developing endurance to compete better in longer events as well as on making a faster turn to break his own record.
