Swimming isn’t the only sport suffering through the coronavirus pandemic but it is battling on to keep its head above water.

Sporting schedules all over the globe have been decimated by the outbreak of Covid-19 with leagues and competitions forced to shut down for the foreseeable future.

Swimming is no different with events across the sport being wiped off the calendar with the Tokyo Olympic Games, originally slated for later this summer, the most high-profile to be put on ice.
