Great split for Pickrem during the breaststroke leg however. 1:05.61!

If Pickrem swam that time in her leg of the relay in Tokyo, Canada would have gotten gold, OR and only 0.7 away from WR. Heck, that split gives her 4th in the 100m final at Tokyo. Amazing time in the middle of a 400 IM.

57.19 would be an excellent time for a 17 year old who specializes in the 100m butterfly

 

let alone a 17 year old in which this is their 8th or 9th best event 

Off the top of my head

 

After the 400IM, 200FL, 200IM, 400FR, 200FR, 800FR, 200BK?

That was just a rough estimate.

 

Next in line would be some combination of 100 FR, 1500 FR, 100 BK, 100 FL. Honestly not sure which order to put them.

Wait a minute. That can't be right. Summer's breaststroke leg in her WR 400 IM was 13 seconds slower. I can't find the results you speak of, but that simply can't be right. I knew it sounded off.

Doesn’t sound right to me either, but that’s what SwimSwam is reporting.

Would have won a medal at the last Olympics and each World Championships since 2020.

I don't know where else to post this but Canada has been upgraded to a bronze medal in the 4x200m freestyle relay at Tokyo 2020. China got DQ'd over a doping violation.

 

This brings the total medal count to 25 and Summer McIntosh now has an Olympic medal

It's still unofficial, but it only makes 2020 that much better.
