“There is still pressure but I don\u2019t have that overwhelming anxiety and stress that I had going to Tokyo and the unfinished business is more of a driver for me,” he adds.<\/p>\n
“I have more love for swimming now than I have had at any point in my career which is a nice place to be at 28.”<\/p>\n
Clegg, who is based at the University of Edinburgh, will compete in three events in Paris \u2013 the S12 100m freestyle, 100m backstroke and 100m butterfly – having won gold in the backstroke and silver in the other two events at last year\u2019s Worlds in Manchester.<\/p>\n
“My top target is three golds but it is a competitive field and it is hard to sit there with certainty and say that, but I am confident we are going to be in a good position,” he says.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019m thankful to be in position where I could hopefully get multiple golds but to get on the podium three times would be a remarkable achievement.<\/p>\n
“But everything is in a good place. Training has been good all season and my body and head are in a good place. I want to hopefully go and deliver some special performances.”<\/p>\n
The squad announcement comes with 100 days to go to the start of the Games and the ParalympicsGB chef de mission Penny Briscoe says it is a big moment.<\/p>\n
“This is the start of the building of the team and is a huge morale boost that it is finally kicking off and we can start to see who will be in Paris,” she tells BBC Sport.<\/p>\n
“We haven\u2019t usually had to wait this long for the first team members to be announced so the sense of excitement has been building. <\/p>\n
“Swimming has a rich history of delivering success at Games and major championships and we have a mix of those with experience alongside some hugely exciting new talent.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
