Swimming Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024


Recommended Posts

:CAN Canadian Olympic Trials: Day 2

 

Men's 400m Individual Medley (OQT: 4:12.50)

1. Tristan Jankovics - 4:11.74 Q :hyper:

2. Lorne Wigginton - 4:13.60

3. Collyn Gagne - 4:16.90

 

An absolutely sensational swim by Jankovics to beat his PB by almost 6 seconds and get under the OQT. Disappointing for Wigginton though who's PB was just 0.31 off the OQT coming into trials.

 

Women's 200m Freestyle (OQT: 1:57.26)

1. Summer McIntosh - 1:53.69 :d

2. Mary-Sophie Harvey - 1:55.44 Q :yikes:

3. Julie Brousseau - 1:57.60 Q

4. Emma O'Croinin - 1:57.86 Q

5. Ella Jansen - 1:58.25

6. Brooklyn Douthwright - 1:58.49

 

Much better swim today from Summer. The commentators seemed to imply that she won't be swimming this event at the Olympics though. Harvey continues her amazing form earning another individual swim and is now the 7th fastest swimmer in the Olympic qualification period. Also great to see Brousseau and O'Croinin make their first Olympic team with PBs. Jansen and Douthwright also put themselves into consideration for selection. Notably, Penny Oleksiak finished 9th in 2:00.18.

 

Men's 100m Backstroke (OQT: 53.74)

1. Blake Tierney - 53.48 :thumbup:

2. Javier Acevedo - 53.55 :thumbup:

3. Aiden Norman - 53.99

 

PB's for all of the top 3 swimmers.

 

Women's 100m Breaststroke (OQT: 1:06.79)

1. Sophie Angus - 1:06.96 Q

2. Kelsey Wog - 1:07.00

3. Sydney Pickrem - 1:07.27

 

By far the most disappointing event of the session. Coming into trials, we had 3 women who had already swum under the OQT and two others at 1:07 low and none of them reached it tonight. Angus qualifies by placing 1st and since she has the OQT from 2024 World Championships, she'll be able to swim the individual 100 breaststroke too. It remains to be seen whether or not Swimming Canada will select one of the other breaststrokers who already have an OQT. Looks like it'll be a 4th place finish in the medley relay.

 

Qualifiers after Day 2:

10 Swimmers (3 men + 7 women)

 

Priority 1: Swimmers finishing in the top 2 in an event at Olympic Trials with OQT (6 swimmers)

  • Javier Acevedo - Men's 100m Backstroke
  • Mary-Sophie Harvey - Women's 200m Freestyle, 100m Butterfly
  • Tristan Jankovics - Men's 400m Individual Medley
  • Maggie Mac Neil - Women's 100m Butterfly
  • Summer McIntosh - Women's 200m Freestyle, 400m Freestyle
  • Blake Tierney - Men's 100m Backstroke

 

Priority 2: Relay swimmers (top 4 in 100/200m freestyle + stroke 100 winners not in Priority 1) (4 swimmers)

  • Sophie Angus - Women's 4x100m Medley Relay (Has the W 100m breaststroke OQT outside of trials)
  • Julie Brousseau - Women's 4x200m Freestyle Relay
  • Finlay Knox - Men's 4x100m Medley Relay
  • Emma O'Croinin - Women's 4x200m Freestyle Relay

I'm guessing it's because the final of the 200 free is only about an hour after the final of the 400m IM. Not to mention that Summer will have already have had the 400 free on day 1.

 

So if she were to do the 200 free as well, it would be 2 400s on day 1, 2 200s on day 2 and then 3 swims on day 3. Even for Summer that would be a heavy schedule for the first 3 days. Unfortunate scheduling more than anything.

Canada is starting to have some depth on the men’s side. Norman, Liendo, Kharun, Jankovics, Wiggington are all young enough to stick around 2028 or 2032. Too bad that many of their younger female swimmers (Ruck, Oleksiak, Smith, Sanchez) aren’t a factor anymore. Don’t see them challenging for a relay medal.

Eh, the women’s 4x200m freestyle relay was looking extremely (extremely) unlikely to begin the meet. For the women’s 4x100m medley relay, breaststroke struggles at Trials is worrying (really hope they take either LePage/Branton as a prelims option, then if they don’t swim well switch to Angus for finals), but I’d still have them in the conversation (Angus has put up some solid splits for the relays at the last two World Championships) for a medal. Kylie Masse has had a resurgence in the backstroke which definitely helps. Only missing leg is the freestyle. We’ll see what they can do later on in the event.

By the way, if you’re wondering what I’m talking about by “Masse’s backstroke resurgence”, Masse clocked 58.27 in the prelims of the women’s 100m backstroke today. And it looked effortless too.

:CAN Canadian Olympic Trials: Day 3

 

Men's 200m Freestyle (OQT: 1:46.26)

1. Alex Axon - 1:47.56 Q

2. Patrick Hussey - 1:47.78 Q

3. Lorne Wigginton - 1:47.93 Q

4. Jeremy Bagshaw - 1:48.49 Q

 

Nobody under the OQT but good chance all 4 of these guys qualify for the relay depending on how many relay-only athletes there are. We also had guys like Acevedo, Knox, and Liendo scratch the final so that opened up the space for some others to qualify for their first Olympics including 32 year old Bagshaw. 1:47.56 doesn't sound like a good winning time but in 2021, the winning time was 1:49.07 and 6 guys went under that tonight.

 

Women's 100m Backstroke (OQT: 59.99)

1. Kylie Masse - 57.94 :hyper:

2. Ingrid Wilm - 59.31 Q

3. Taylor Ruck - 59.78

 

Kylie Masse is back! Her fastest time since 2021. Also great to see Wilm qualify for her first Olympics and Ruck back in form.

 

Men's 200m Breaststroke (OQT: 2:09.68)

1. Oliver Dawson - 2:12.42

2. Brayden Taivassalo - 2:12.83

3. Justice Migneault - 2:13.52

 

Dawson is just 16 years old by the way.

 

Women's 1500m Freestyle (OQT: 16:09.09)

1. Emma Finlin - 16:28.15

2. Julia Strojnowska - 16:42.99

3. Peyton Leigh - 16:59.05

 

Finlin is already qualified in open water.

Watched live. Basically did it all in the breaststroke so has no weakness now. Summer will own the 400 IM for as long as she wants.

    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
