Darragh will be competing in the 100m Breaststroke in the fourth (Lane 2) of the seven heats and will swim in the last (Lane 8) of the five heats in the 200m Breaststroke on Tuesday next (July 27) at 11.50am (Irish time).  

No matter what happens in Tokyo it has been a wonderful achievement for the Longford swimming star to get this far and the extremely talented 25-year-old athlete from Newtownforbes is living the Olympic dream which is about to become a reality.

“Although the excitement is mounting, Darragh is very cool and focused and hopefully things will go according to plan,” stated his dad Brian when he spoke to the Leader.
