Rodgie vows to show angry side in pool
The 22-year-old took to the pool at the Aquatics Centre for the first time yesterday, clocking a time of 1:07.03minutes to finish fourth in the final heat. However that wasn’t good enough to reach the final, the Scot ranking 12th overall less than a second away from the top eight.
Rodgie, who will return to the pool for the 200m freestyle tomorrow, said: “I have got a lot I can take from my swim in the 100m backstroke, I need to be a bit more aggressive. It was good but I was a bit disappointed with the time. I’ve got the 200m freestyle to come so fingers crossed I can make the final in that.”
