10-years old set to become worlds youngest athlete at swimming.

10-year-old set to become youngest athlete at swimming world championships to be held in Russia. Alzain Tareq will be participating in the women’s 50 metres butterfly in Kazan and will become the youngest competitor at world championships. Alzain Tareq The Bahrain star has been swimming since the age of four, supported by her father who is a former professional swimmer Tareq Salem. The schoolgirl from Bahrain says she will not “fear anything or anybody” when she takes part in the freestyle sprint or Saturday’s 50m butterfly heats. Tareq said that she was more interested in gaining experience of competing at high-profile events by watching the technical skill of famous Olympic champions and add some of their skills to her armoury. Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom Her qualifying time of 41.12 seconds in the 50m butterfly is dwarfed by the world record of 24.43 secs, set by Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom which could well fall. She has not yet shared her outstanding achievement with any of her classmates back at home but is very happy about how much she has achieved.
