Titmus has been added to the final entry list. She's swimming her usual events plus the 100 free.

An interesting development to keep track of heading into Paris.

 

Arguably the greatest coach of all time, Bob Bowman (Michael Phelps old coach) has shockingly left his head coaching position at ASU to go to Texas 2 days after winning the NCAA title.

 

He was coaching college swimmers like  Leon Marchand,  Hubert Kos,  Ilya Kharun,  Zalan Sarkany, and also pros like  Regan Smith,  Chase Kalisz,  Ryan Held,  Olivia Smoliga,  Simone Manuel,  Taylor Ruck,  Paige Madden,  Drew Kibler and  Jay Litherland are also training at ASU.

 

I believe the sprinters are lead by the assistant/now head coach so they'll probably be fine but it'll be interesting to see what kind of an effect this move will have on the mid-distance and distance swimmers, especially Marchand.

 

Texas currently has swimmers like  Carson Foster,  Luke Hobson and  Shaine Casas.

Apparently the ASU swimmers didn't know until today and many are pissed. Not a great season for this kind of upheaval.

Thought it was a swimswam April Fool's joke at first. Think my jaw hit the floor when I saw the editor's note saying it wasn't an April Fool's joke.

Very impressive heat swim from Adam Peaty clocking 58.53. Unlike his other races since his return he looked good the whole way. Now let's see if he can repeat it or better in the final ...

Fastest time in the world this year I think? - although  Qin was sub 58.00 in Berlin last year.
