“It’s a very exciting Olympics, from an Irish perspective,' says RTE commentator Nick O'Hare
RTE commentator Nick O'Hare will be the voice behind the microphone at the 2024 Olympics. Irish swimming is booming, insists the 1996 Olympian and there are two likely finalists in the team.
"Daniel will swim the 800 and 1500. He’s a world champion in both, he’s the world record short course holder, he broke that in Romania in December. 50-metre freestyler O'Hare began breaking Irish swimming records in the early-90's and had attended the Swimming World Cup in 1995 before making the 1996 Games where he finished 27th of 96 swimmers in his event.
“I wasn’t talented, like if you rank talent on a scale of zero to ten in terms of world class I was probably four but I worked harder than anybody else. The thing about it is you have to love hurting yourself.
