COACHED BY FATHER
In 2018 she decided to be coached by her father Shigeru following the advice of Masao Iizuka, who had coached her since she was in middle school. Although her father hesitated to take over the position due to a lack of coaching experiences at elite level, she encouraged him to train with her. "I call him 'papa' at home, but 'Coach Hasegawa' in the pool'." (mainichi.jp, 13 Jun 2019; the-ans.jp, 10 Jul 2019; nhk.or.jp, 07 Apr 2021) |
