David Popovici sent a message to his critics after winning two gold medals at the World Championships in Singapore.
Our athlete had a message for those who criticized him for taking a pro-European stance and sending only negative thoughts.
"Those who prayed for my downfall should pray harder," David posted on Instastory.
At the competition in Singapore, David Popovici achieved some outstanding performances.
He improved the competition record, previously set by Zhanle Pan with a time of 46.80, and once again broke the European record, surpassing his own performance from last month, of 46.71.
Furthermore, he managed to win both the 100m and 200m freestyle events, becoming the only athlete in history to achieve this "double" twice, following his previous success in Budapest in 2022.
