Quote this article (in Danish) on Sporten.dk. According to the now 1500 freestyle short course world champion Mads Glæsner, the Danish male swimmers were ‘sacrificed’ for the female, their last 6 months of training downgraded with all focus instead on the needs of the women.
– ‘Paulus didn’t hide that the training was not prepared for swimmers training outside his group. He told us this a couple of days before the Olympics. That the training was planned and arranged for a few swimmers, and that the rest of us could just tag along. This information I had trouble with getting just a few days before the Olympics, says Glæsner with resentment in his voice.’
