Swimming Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024

[phelps 7,669]

3rd and final Day at the Italian Winter Nationals

 

Alberto Razzetti confirmed himself as the Italian swimmer currently in best shape, swimming a new NR (and OQT) also in the men's 400m IM

 

he clocked 4.09.29, improving by more than half a second the old record, held by Luca Marin since January 2007, when he won the bronze medal at that year's World Champs (behind people like Phelps and Lochte and beating Laszlo Cseh)

 

Alessandro Miressi also got the OQT by winning the men's 100m Freestyle in 47.61

 

Simona Quadarella (women's 800m Freestyle, 8.25.87), Benedetta Pilato (women's 50m Breaststroke, 29.65), Niccolò Martinenghi and Simone Cerasuolo (men's 50m Breaststroke, 26.71 and 26.83 respectively) "only" recorded World Championships Qualifying Times

 

Federico Burdisso, instead, missed the World Champs QT by just 2/100 of a second (he swum the men's 200m Fly in 1.55.11, while it was required 1.55.0), but his time however is ecouraging, as it's his fastest race since Tokyo (when he won the bronze medal)

 

everything else, better to forget it as quick as possible

no, as usual our coaches will give more athletes the chance to participate (and of course there will be also the relay specialists, who are not listed here)

 

we can't afford to be "strict" like USA and/or AUS, we always have discretionary places chosen by the technical director
