Pakistani swimmer Lianna Swan is aiming to set new national records when she competes at the 2014 Commonwealth Games which get underway in Glasgow, Scotland today.
The Dubai-based Lianna qualified for the Commonwealth Games after a string of record-breaking performances in the Pakistan National Championship in June where she won nine gold and three silver medals.
The 17-year-old already holds seven national records, but she is now aiming to go even faster in Glasgow, where she will compete in the 50 and 100-metre breaststroke, 50 and 100-metre freestyle and the 200-metre individual medley.
“Medalling at the Commonwealth Games may be a little unrealistic, I’m going more for the experience,” Lianna told the media.
