BarcelonaIn 2013, Barcelona hosted the swimming world championships for the second time. A young Jessica Vall (1988) participated, who at the age of 24 jumped into the pool in her first World Cup experience. Ten years later, with five world championships achieved, he hopes to do it for the last time in Fukuoka (Japan). “This World Cup, the one in Japan, will be the last,” he told ARA. At the concentration of the national selection, she will coincide with another Catalan, Emma Carrasco. The Lleida native, only 17 years old (2005), will experience the first world championship of her career. “I face this opportunity with enthusiasm, and even more so if I can share it with my idol,” explains Emma. However, he says he doesn’t want to follow his path. “Whenever someone is close to retiring, they look for a replacement, and it doesn’t have to be like that. I’ll do my way,” says Emma with conviction.
