At the World Swimming Championships in Fukuoka we hope for medals again this week. The first ever World Cup medal for Switzerland captured in Madrid in 1986 Dano Halsall (60) – a silver medal in the 50-meter freestyle, for which he released a fountain at the photo shoot. Even crazier: on July 21, 1985, the Swiss from Geneva wrote sports history, crawling towards a world record in Bellinzona! With 22.52 seconds he was the fastest swimmer in the world for 138 days.

As a player European, Vice World and German Champion (3 x). The latter also three times as a coach. Felix Magath has been through everything in football, also worked as a manager and general manager. As a nod to his coaching methods, he was nicknamed Quälix. He celebrates his birthday on Wednesday 70th birthday.

Of the six men, only Alexander Zverev (pictured) and Maximilian Marterer reached the third round, failing to even make it into the second week. In comparison, the Swiss Tennis Federation has only 164,378 members. And what did the Swiss do at Wimbledon?
