Scratch that, Penny Oleksiak doesn't appear to be competing, even though she was named to the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not 100% sure that this is true, at least if you judge by the number of medals only? Canada will probably medal in womens 100 free, womens 200 free, womens 100 fly, womens 200 back, all relays and maybe womens 50 free. Any more medal chances for Canada in olympic events? Concerning overall medals this could be the same of maybe worse than Rio, but Canada should win more gold, i guess 3-4 in total. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intoronto 4,071 Posted August 23, 2017 #108 Share Posted August 23, 2017 won the 4x200 by 6 seconds!! And a new world junior record! Taylor Ruck also with a world junior record in the women's 100m back. Just amazing. George_D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddy96 171 Posted August 24, 2017 #109 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) We probably would've finished 2nd in the 4x200 had China sent their best athletes, but its still a fantastic result for us. Sadly some big names are missing at this competition (Kolesnikov, Horomura, Atherton, McKeown, Chinese, Ruck not swimming 200 back, Oleksiak not swimming any individual events) Also finally a good up and coming male swimmer for us, Gabe Mastromatteo 9th in 1:01.64 in Men's 100m Breast having just turned 15 yrs old recently. We also have Mehdi Ayoubi who recently swam a 22.35 50m free (which would've been 2nd seed at World Juniors) but he isn't here for whatever reason sadly Edited August 24, 2017 by juddy96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto 4,071 Posted August 24, 2017 #110 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Canada’s final time was 7:51.47, a World Junior Record by a five seconds, and the junior foursome swam also four seconds quicker than the Canadian team did on the way to an eighth-place squad swam at the World Championships last month -wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
