Katinka Hosszú Filed For Divorce
Swimmer Katinka Hosszú has filed for divorce, which can soon officially end her relationship with her American husband-coach Shane Tusup reported blikk.hu.
Katinka married Tusup in August 2013. This was one of the most successful husband-wife teams in the sport. Under her husband’s guidance Katinka won three Olympic gold medals, countless world championships titles, and various top athlete of the year awards.
Last November, the couple announced that their relationship was going through a difficult period.
As we wrote, they spent the Christmas apart and arrived at the top athlete’s awards ceremony separately.
According to rumors, Katinka might team up with Spanish swimmer Mireia Belmonte’s coach Frédéric Vergnoux.
Tusup receives about US$4000 monthly salary from the Hungarian Swimming Federation as Katinka’s trainer, which will be cut off as soon as Katinka announces the name of her new coach.

Crowdfunding Goal For Hektometer Freediving Goggles Reached In Hours
Remember those Hektometer freediving goggles we reported on earlier this month?
Well, the crowdfunding campaign for those goggles launched last week, and it reached its funding goal within the first two hours that the IndieGogo page was live.
Over the past few months, the goggles have been tested at the Y-40 pool, and although initially it was thought they were good to 40m/130ft, they have proved reliable to 100m/330ft. Freediver Davide Carrera has tested them in competition, with multiple dives to 90m/300ft.
According to Hektometer’s Klaus Schuwerk:
“We reached our goal in less than 2 hours and right now we are over 300% thanks to many enthusiastic supporters from the freediving community, especially those who have tried the goggles at Y-40.â€
The Hektometer goggles are able to combine the clarity and visibility of a mask with the comfort and performance of fluid googles.
