Mitch Larkin won the 100m and 200m backstroke titles at the 2015 World Championsips. Then, countrywoman and girlfriend Emily Seebohm did the same. Both Australians are racing in the 100m backstroke final on Monday night, beginning at 9pm.
They probably won’t be able to watch each other race; Seebohm’s race is about 10 minutes before Larkin’s. It works just as well for the couple, who say they rarely talk about swimming.
