Alexanne LePage swam 1:07.60 in the 100m breast semis today. Had an entry time of 1:09.66. Bodes well for the future of sprint breaststroke!

Between this and Sophie Angus, Canada might have finally filled their breaststroke role in the relays.  Unfortunately it comes at a time where they are falling behind in the other strokes.

Yup. No clear successor to Masse/Wilm or MacNeil

And unless Oleksiak comes back strong, the sprint freestyle has suddenly dried up, too.  Still think they'll compete for a medal in the women's medley in Paris, and maybe even the mixed medley if they decide to go for it.  The latter is much harder, though.  Putting Angus/LePage on the breaststroke will improve the team, but replacing McNeil with Liendo won't really move the dial.  Not sure if it'd be enough.

 

The other good news is, reviewing the times from Fukuoka, Gaziev did great in the relays on the freestyle.  After two strong finishes in the men's freestyle relays in Tokyo and Fukuoka, they're just lacking one more 47-second guy to really challenge for a medal.

Yeah, during the 2016-20 period, most of our young talent was in the 100/200m distances. Now during this period, it seems like most of our young talent is now in the 200/400m distances which is still great but doesn't bode as well for the sprint relays. But as we saw with Lepage, talent can emerge from out of nowhere very quickly so hopefully we can find some new sprint talent soon

Notably another National age group records from Wigginton in the 400 IM. 4:12.81. Now just 0.31 from the OQT.

 

Also nice to see Jansen bounce back after a rough double yesterday.

Another gold for Lepage! 2:24.70 to win the 200m breaststroke. Will be interesting to see what she splits in the medley relay later.

    • Ooooooh the group of Canada , they play in Toronto then Vancouver ...look at the distance   
    • now the shooting sport takes a little Christmas break and the new season resumes in January with the Asian Championships for the Shotgun specialists ( Doha, Jan. 11th through 22nd)   the World Cup will be back in late March, beginning in  Tangiers (March 25th through April 3rd, Shotgun specialists only)   the Rifle and Pistol specialists will start their new season with the European 10m Championships in  Yerevan (Feb. 27th through March 5th) and the 1st World Cup stage for them will be in  Granada in April (5th through 13th)   300m, 25m and 50m European Champs will be in  Osijek (May 30th through June 21st), meanwhile the Shotgun European Champs will be held in  Athens from Sept. 27th through Oct. 13th
    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
