Regardless of what has gone on outside the pool, Daiya Seto has remained one of swimming's top stars and an athlete capable of representing Japan at the highest level.
Seto was embroiled in controversy last year when news of his extramarital affairs were made public and has been apologetic at almost every turn since returning to competition in February.
Despite everything that’s happened recently, nothing has changed for Seto in the pool. As he proved during last week’s national championships, he can still swim as well as anyone.
