– It’s awesomely delicious worse, he says.

It will be the sailor’s fifth Olympics in a row and this time he will compete together with Lovisa Karlsson. In Tokyo 2020 it was an Olympic silver medal together with Fredrik Bergström.
– I feel gratitude, and I feel “let it all begin”, says Anton Dahlberg.
Get an Olympic feeling with a song from 1976
The first day of competition for the Swedish duo is August 2, and the medal race itself is August 7. And there is a special song that helps Anton find focus.
– Seabird with Alessi Brothers. Listen to it and you will get the same feeling as I do when I go out to the boat in the water.
In addition to Anton Dahlberg from Växjö, the Crown Bergers Truls Möregårdh (table tennis) and Fanny Roos (athletics) are also participating in the Olympics.
