## Resource

This week on The Weekly Freestyle, Alex Sutton is joined by Luke Withers to dive into one of the biggest stories shaking up the swimming world: Ben Proud’s controversial move to the Enhanced Games. We ask the tough questions: Has Proud’s decision tarnished his legacy? Has the sport failed one of its brightest stars? And what about the health risks that come with this choice? Plus, we break down all the latest drama from Aquatics GB’s transfer deadline day, who’s on the move, who’s staying put, and what it all means for the future of British swimming.
