Olympic swimmer rescued by her coach after fainting during world championships says the last thing she remembered was not feeling 'too great' before going down.
"I remember feeling like it was a really great performance," 25-year-old Anita Alvarezin an exclusive interview following the Wednesday individual final, in which she finished seventh.
Alvarez, who was joined by her coach, Andrea Fuentes, for the interview, said she gave"everything until the very end" of her performance. Alvarez, a two-time Olympian, said she had"started to feel a little bit of numbness in my fingers and then honestly, just kind of everything went black and that was ... kind of it," she said."It all happened really fast."
Her coach, Fuentes, who previously won four Olympic medals for Spain, quickly leapt into action, plunging into the water to save the swimmer.
