I'm an Olympic champion' - Daniel Wiffen looks on the bright side It wasn't to be for Daniel Wiffen finishing in third in the 1500m freestyle behind America's Bobby Finke and Italy's Gregorio Paltrinieri. "I'm happy but disappointed at the same time," said the 23-year-old. Being an Olympic champion is like a dream come through. I'm going to put the pool behind me until next season. Today's race didn't go my way but who cares, I'm Olympic champion."
