For Viktória Mihályvári-Farkas, returning to training has replaced the next race as the immediate goal. In an FTC interview published on 30 October, she said she dislocated her shoulder during training on 23 October and would miss the World Cup race in Mexico in early November. The injury and its public announcement therefore have different dates.

Early December is a hope, not a confirmed comeback

She said her doctor had indicated she could start swimming six weeks after the injury. She hopes to use December to readjust; her progress will determine the return. M4's report also describes the reason for the withdrawal.

Rehabilitation now provides the next task in place of the competition calendar. Follow more Hungarian swimming news in our aquatics section.
