Eurosport Hungary summarized Jackl Vivien's career so far .

At the age of 14, silver medalist in the Hungarian championship, junior European champion, two-time EYOF winner, youth national champion and multiple national top scorer - for two months now she has also broken the records held by Zsuzsanna Jakabos since 2004 and 2005.

Jackl Vivien went beyond the level that two years ago, in the summer of 2021, she handed over the 1987 age-group Hungarian peak of Krisztina Egerszegi to the past, since the

its development is not only unbroken, it can be called one of, if not the greatest hope in domestic swimming today.

He is only just starting high school, but in the spring he already finished second in the 400 meters medley at the national championships in Kaposvár (behind Boglárka Kapás, ahead of Zsuzsanna Jakabos), and in the juniors he is clearly among the best in the world: last year, at the age of 13, the field as the youngest, he made the finals in the three hardest events, 400 medley, 200 butterfly and 1500 freestyle, at the Junior WC in Lima, while this summer he competed in Europe.

He started the series at the beginning of July, at the Junior European Championships in Belgrade, where he also competed as one of the youngest in the field, as a teenager, despite this, he won the 400 medley with one of the most serious time results of the entire European Championships: he swam 4:40.66, which is roughly two seconds from the Olympic A-level (4:38.53) and well away from the B-level (4:39.92).

Just for the sake of interest, it can be noted that the current world record holder, who is still only 17 years old, Canadian Summer McIntosh, who broke Katinka Hosszú's record in Rio, had a personal best of 4:50.21 at the age of 14, which is just ten seconds lower than Vivi's.

Whether the Olympic A-level will meet in Paris already, or whether it can "only" start in Los Angeles in 2028, is secondary at the moment, since he has plenty of time - of course he has his dreams, he wants to be there next year in the French capital, just like the his goals are also clear in relation to the American Olympics, in the future he would continue his studies in the United States.

By the way, Vivi lives and studies in Tatabánya, she will start the ninth grade at László Bárdos High School in September, and she is an excellent student. She started swimming at the age of four, and since then Márta Sirkóné Kocsis, who was chosen as the coach of the month by the Hungarian Swimming Association in August, is paving her way very well at the Tatabánya Waterworks Association, according to whom such a talent is born in Hungarian sports every hundred years: not only talented and hardworking, but purposeful and intelligent well, everything is fine in his head and he always knows exactly what he wants.

The limit can therefore be nothing other than the starry sky - or what lies beyond it.
