Not sure if this would be thread or the Swimming 2024, but... I was curious and took the 2 best times from american swimmers between march 2023-24 to check what would be the US swimming "selection".

It would have 20 male athletes, 18 female athletes, plus 3 men and 2 women to fill the top6 in 4x100m and 4x200m. The 12th relay only quota would go (in my mind obviously) to Simone Manuel, 7th from 4x100m.

 

Do you think the official selection will be very different from this one? Can Dressel comeback in time?

 

MEN (20+ 6 relay only)

 

Bobby Finke - 800m freestyle, 1500m freestyle

Carson Foster - 200m butterfly, 200m medley, 400m medley, 4x200m freestyle (3rd)

Charlie Clark - 1500m freestyle

Chase Kalisz - 400m medley

Dare Rose - 100m butterfly

David Johnston - 400m freestyle

Destin Lasco.- 200m backstroke, 4x100 freestyle (3rd)

Hunter Armstrong - 100m backstroke

Jack Alexy - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Jake Foster - 200m breaststroke

Josh Mateny - 100m breaststroke

Kieran Smith - 200m freestyle, 400m freestyle

Luke Hobson - 200m freestyle

Matt Fallon - 200m breaststroke

Nic Fink - 100m breaststroke

Ross Dant - 800m freestyle

Ryan Held - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Ryan Murphy - 100m backstroke, 200m backstroke

Shaine Casas - 100m butterfly, 200m medley

Thomas Heilman - 200m butterfly

 

RELAY ONLY

 

Brooks Curry - 4x200m freestyle (6th)

Chris Giuliano - 4x100 freestyle (5th)

Drew Kibler - 4x200m freestyle (4th)

Jake Mitchell - 4x200m freestyle (5th)

Justin Ress- 4x100 freestyle (6th)

Matt King - 4x100 freestyle (4th)

 

 

WOMEN (22) 16+6 relay only

 

Abbey Weitzeil - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Alex Walsh - 200m medley, 400m medley

Bella Sims - 400 free, 4x200m freestyle (3rd)

Claire Curzan - 200m back

Claire Weinstein - 200m freestyle

Dakota Luther. - 200m butterfly

Gretchen Walsh - 100m butterfly, 4x100m (3rd)

Jillian Cox - 800m free

Kate Douglass - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle, 200m breast, 200m medley

Katie Grimes - 1500m freestyle, 400m medley

Katie Ledecky - 200m freestyle, 400 free, 800 free, 1500m free

Katherine Berkoff - 100m back

Lilly King - 100m breast, 200m breast

Lydia Jacoby - 100m breast

Regan Smith - 100m back, 200m back, 200m butterfly

Torri Huske - 100m butterfly, 4x100m (4th)

 

Relay Only:

Alex Schakell -  4x200m freestyle (5th)

Erin Gemmell - 4x200m freestyle (4th)

Leah Smith - 4x200m freestyle (6th)

Maxime Parker - 4x100m freestyle (6th)

Olivia Smoliga - 4x100m freestyle (5th)

Simone Manuel - 4x100m freestyle (7th)

I'll post my predictions sometime in Mid June when psych sheets for US trials come out.

 

As of now, I would expect around 80% of the names above to make the Olympic team. Of course the big stars like Ledecky, Smith, Douglass, Finke, Murphy, etc. should have no problem qualifying. However, given the depth that the US has, the rapid progression of many of their young talents and a lot of spots being wide open (2nd spot in men's 200 back, women's 200 fly, women's long distance for example), I would expect a few new names on the Olympic team. And of course, as you mentioned, Dressel's status will have to be monitored closely. He's competing this upcoming weekend at a the Pro Swim Series so we'll get a better idea of his progression their.

It would be a shame as they never had a swimmer. Is this official already?

Their OC does not recognize their swimming federation (which was started by their female swimmer who is from Canada). They had a new athlete here as well so maybe?

    • Do you remember this?    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Fed_Cup_World_Group     I don't remember too much Husarova, who at that time played alongside Hantuchová in the singles matches. I more know that persons, like Henrietta Nagyova or Martina Sucha.     Sramkova is 28? Wow. She's Paolini's age. I still have the impression that Sramkova is like crazy 20 :P I don`t know what      
    • Goodbye champion! I think I first heard about him during the ATP tournament in Monte Carlo (now ATP 1000 but back then it was called something else) in distant 2003. Time flies really fast, because it's been over 20 years   Return to competition: on paper Italy and the USA are the strongest now, who can play in 1/2 but in principle anyone can beat anyone here, e.g. today the Netherlands vs Spain. In theory, Sinner can guarantees 1 point in every potential singles matches. Now the question is who will be the 2nd racket in Italy and who possibly played doubles: Sinner with Musetti or Bolelli with Vavassori? I remember that Sinner was scheduled to play Musetti in the doubles at the Paris Olympics before his withdrawal.
    • Rafael Nadal (tennis) Officially retired following the conclusion of the Davis Cup, where Spain got eliminated in the quarterfinals.    He’s a 22x Grand Slam Champion (14 at Roland Garros, 5 at the US Open, 2 at the Australian Open, 2 at Wimbledon), “King of Clay”, and an Olympic gold medalist in both singles (2008) and doubles (2016)
    • Spain lost against Netherlands 
    • crazy week in Asia, KSA lost to Indonesia, so called Asian Champion Qatar lost 5-0 to UAE and Korea dropped 2pts against Palestine once again. Australia was lucky to escape another defeat vs Bahrain by a late goal.    Japan will most probably secure the qualification spot (as the first team) in March. Iran also has 16pts so far but the performance is far from good. our team still plays terrible  but somehow manages a way to win matches.    Group C is really interesting, behind Japan we have Australia with 7pts and 4 more teams with 6pts!  everything is possible, BRN, INA and CHN they all have a chance to even clinch a direct qualification spot. Bahrain could end this week with 6pts but some crazy things happened in extra time for them and they ended up with just 1 ! 
    • Using the nations league for playoff qualification is such a bad idea.
    • By this results San Marino is possible to play a qualifiying play-off to 2026 World Cup. If the favorits from pot 1 and 2 will finish 1st and/or 2nd in their qualifiying groups then North Macedonia, Northern Ireland, Moldova and San Marino will play a two rounds of single-match play-offs. So the last team in FIFA ranking could play a world cup qualifying play-off, that's absolutely insane
    • Let's do this: You let Jasmine win the 1st cup for Italy tomorrow and we'll send you Sinner to Bratislava for a week of tennis camp with children and youth. Deal?
