Any word on which events McIntosh will compete in at the Olympics?

 

I guess the biggest question mark from an individual event perspective is whether or not she will compete in the 200m free as the final overlaps with the 400 IM final. Five individual events would be very hard to compete, but if any swimmer is to pull it off in 2024 it would be her.

 

The 4x200m free overlaps with the 200m fly final, but it's hard to think she would miss the final. Another question is whether she competes in the 4x100m free which overlaps with the 400m free event. Losing Sanchez hurts our depth, but we may still be good enough to medal.

My guess

 

200m Freestyle

400m Freestyle

200 IM

400 IM

200m Butterfly

4x200 Freestyle Relay

 

4x100m Freestyle Relay, and 200m Backstroke are solid possibilities too.

200m backstroke is unlikely due to scheduling conflicts

One would hope so, it's usually not the best look for the overall competitiveness of swimming when a swimmer is in the medal fight in entirely different distances/strokes within an hour or so :p

    • Just rewatched that last minute, because apparently there were a controversy according to medias, but it took almost 15 minutes.  oh dear, this sport is just something else.    
    • Apparently was leading 0.4 seconds to go by 3 points but still managed to lose the match     Anyway it looks there some progress from the loses to Albania and co from couple of years ago... maybe thhere a chance for a win in a international match in the next decade. As San Marino proved last week in football, only sky is the limit

    • Hope so (for my adopted country, Norway, that is). Torino 2006 was the first Winter Olympics I followed closely and it was nothing short of a disaster for Norway. Strangely enough, that was actually the reason I became an avid fan of Norwegian winter sports and have been ever since. As for my actual home country, Greece, a medal for Ginnis in slalom (alpine skiing) would be a miracle.
    • Medal matches are set for Sunday:   Bronze Medal Match:  United States vs.  Venezuela   Gold Medal Match:  Taiwan vs.  Japan
