successes

At the German Short Course Championships 2014 in Wuppertal, he was German champion in both of his special disciplines. As the successor to Sören Meißner , he missed over 800 m in a time of 7: 35.76 the six-year-old record time of Paul Biedermann from the time of high-tech suits by only 53 hundredths of a second. He temporarily occupied first place in the annual world rankings and qualified over 1500 m for the 2014 Short Course World Championships in Doha.

At the German Swimming Championships in 2015 he was three times German champion, over 400 m (3: 46.53), 800 m (7: 52.57) and with the 4 × 200 m relay of his club. At the German Short Course Championships in the same year he set a new German record with 7: 33.44 min over 800 m and undercut Paul Biedermann's record from 2008 by almost two seconds.

On June 24, 2015, the civil engineering student in Munich rescued a woman from the 14 ° C cold Isar, which disrupted his preparation for the 2015 World Swimming Championships in Kazan because of the considerable media coverage that followed. In Kazan he just missed the final run over 400 m freestyle as ninth of the prelims, over 1500 m he finished 15th.
