What Are The Odds to Win - Men's 1500m Freestyle - Swimming - Summer Olympics
Daniel Wiffen (IRL) is the favorite to win the Men's 1500m Freestyle at the Paris Summer Olympics.
He has already walked away with gold in the 800m Freestyle event. In doing so he set an Olympic record time of 7:38.19.
“It's just so incredible to say that I've achieved the best result you can in swimming, that Olympic gold,” Wiffen said afterwards.
“My goal was to progress, progress, progress until I hit Olympic champion, and I'm happy to say I've had a very good upslope in terms of swimming. We went from 14th place in the last Olympics, making a world championships final, making a Commonwealth medal, fourth at a world championships, triple European champion, world record, double world champion and now Olympic champion. I won it all.”
He also won the 800 and 1500 metres freestyle at the 2024 World Aquatics Championships in Doha, the first time a male Irish swimmer had become world champion. He won the 400, 800 and 1500 metre freestyle at the 2023 European Swimming Championships (25m) in Otopeni, and the inaugural European Under-23 title in 2023 in Dublin. Did we mention he once appeared 11 years ago as a pre-teen in "Game of Thrones"?
Robert Finke (USA) would pay out $300 on a $100 bet should he go on to win Olympic gold in this event. He finished with a silver medal in the 800m Freestyle.
