SHANGHAI - Star German swimmer Paul Biedermann is confident he can defend his crowns in the men's 200m and 400m freestyle events at the 14th FINA World Championships here.
"I have high expectations of myself. I want to prove myself again. I want to definitely defend my world titles," said 24-year-old Biedermann, who claimed two gold medals at the last World Championships two years ago in Rome.
"I know it's really hard. I know there are so many fast guys in the world who also want to be world champions. But I will try to do my best."
