British swimmer Adam Peaty has insisted that he wants to dominate the sport as he prepares for this summer's World Championships in Kazan.

The 20-year-old impressed on the senior stage last year by winning four European gold medals, two Commonwealth titles and claiming a new 50m breaststroke world record.

"I don't want to be that swimmer who disappears off the map," BBC Sport quotes Peaty as saying. "At the beginning of last year I was a nobody really, but winning Commonwealths and Europeans was amazing.

"Sometimes you have to lose to find that motivation again, but I hate losing and love winning, so I want to keep claiming those golds."

Peaty will aim to qualify for the Worlds at the British Championships this week.
