The plan was for Sarah Sjöström to only participate in one individual event at the summer OS in Paris: 50 meter freestyle.

But there may be a change. Dagens Nyheter reports that the Swedish superstar is also registered for 100 meter freestyle.

"The SOK/swimming federation decided to enter me in the 100 free since I'm qualified", Sjöström writes to the newspaper.

One of the explanations for this? Her strong results in the Sette Colli tournament in Rome earlier this summer.
