South African swimming star Chad le Clos has taken a salary cut to help struggling swimmers during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Le Clos confirmed that he and his swimming team Energy Standard have decided to take a voluntary 65 percent salary cut.

If you said to me I'll give you R100 million and you can't swim at the Olympics next year, I'd say no."
