HÀ NỘI — Four Vietnamese swimmers will take part in the FINA World Swimming Championships (25m), which is scheduled to be held from December 6-11 in Ontario, Canada.

Swimmers Nguyễn Thị Ánh Viên, Trần Duy Khôi, Lê Nguyễn Paul and Lâm Quang Nhật, who will take part in the event at the WFCU Centre in Windsor, also participated in the Asian Swimming Championships in Japan last month, where Viên won one gold and two bronzes.

Viên, the country’s top swimmer, had competed in the FINA World Swimming Championships (25m) in Doha, Qatar, two years ago, where she ranked 13th in the women’s 400m medley with a time of 4:34.49. — VNS
