What's up with this clapping with the Italian anthem that's so prevalent since a few years?  

 

Becouse it's the best anthem in the world  Btw, in Italy we like it, there has never been any controversy

I find it annoying  

 

Not the anthem of course (I love the Italian anthem), but the clapping like it's some K-pop song

Say what you want, but I'm quite sure there weren't any time failures in Asaba.

Still, the race was won with 14.36 and Greg is not improving anymore since 2016...

I think that all of his Australian journeys and the Open Water project are taking a lot off his 1500m skills...

I hope he's gonna turn his trend around or Tokyo's podium finish could become very complicated...

congrats to Wellbroeck...frankly I didn't expect him to swim 14.36...

 

Miressi...great job, great win (I didn't expect him to manage that pressure so well)...but, tbh, I expected quite a faster time from him (46.9 in the relay's anchor leg means that he should have got at least a 47.7 in today's final)...

in any case, I think it's only a question of time...he's gonna go below 48 secs very soon...

I experienced today that splits dont have to mean much. Yesterday Bruhn went 1:56.3 in the mixed relay but today she only went 2:00.2 in the 200 free prelims ...

Relays are a special situation you cant always reproduce in the individual race.
