LONDON (Reuters) - Adam Peaty has an open mind but his mother Caroline said on Monday she hopes the triple Olympic champion will give up competitive swimming after the Paris Games and live a more normal life.

Peaty, 29, is going for a third successive 100 metres breaststroke gold after becoming the first British swimmer to defend an Olympic title at the Tokyo Games in 2021. He also has two Olympic relay silvers.
