ADAM PEATY has warned that he is a wounded lion ready to unleash a redemption roar.
Britain’s greatest swimmer is in shock after finishing fourth in Sunday’s 100m breaststroke final.
He returned to the pool twice yesterday to qualify for today’s 50m final but admitted losing on Sunday had given him a sleepless night as he struggled to process his first defeat over the distance.
Peaty said: “It was devastating for me and I had a really bad night, no more than two hours sleep. I just couldn’t switch off because when you’re in defence mode, you’re asking yourself, ‘What’s gone wrong?’
“That’s who I am. I’m always looking about, ‘How do I get better?’ I don’t come here for fourth or silver or bronze.”
