NMQ 221 Posted December 3, 2022 #182 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Summer swam a 4:28.61 in the 400 IM, a new WJR. Katinka's WR will be in serious danger next year. I'm excited to see what she can do in the 200 IM, which is like her 4th best event right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hide contents And World Athletics Federation. And World Archery Federation! I agree. I think all Olympic sports federations abbreviations should be unique, just like the IOC country codes. This way referring to "WAF World Championships" you would immediately understand if it's Archery or Athletics, because the other one would be, for example, "WAA World Championships".
