Werloc 3,127 Posted February 15, 2023 #21 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) Very excited that the first real swimming competition in the 50m pool starts tomorrow in Lithuania. A three day event, Lithuanian winter championships. Rūta Meilutytė is skipping it, but Rapšys, Šidlauskas and Teterevkova are going to be present. Also, I'm very interested in seeing how did the junior talents develop in this past half-year. I'll update if anything interesting happens.

dullard 434 Posted February 18, 2023 #22 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Kaylee McKeown is gradually returning to Tokyo form after going 57.93 at the Victorian Open Champs this evening. Also went a big PB (1:06.86) in the 100 breast yesterday which is a good sign for her IMs. rafalgorka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dullard 434 Posted February 19, 2023 #23 Share Posted February 19, 2023 While I think she'll go 2:07 sometime soon I'm not sure it will be in Fukuoka because there's only a single event between 100 back semis and 200 IM final. Maybe World Aquatics will help her out by inserting a few medal ceremonies in between ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh 5,682 Posted February 25, 2023 #25 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) TYR Pro Swim Series- Fort Lauderdale, Florida (50m) | March 1-4, 2023 Some big names will be competing here such as Summer McIntosh, Katie Ledecky, Siobhan Haughey, Michael Andrew, Nic Fink, Simone Manuel, Regan Smith, Ryan Held, Shane Casas, Natalie Hinds, Olivia Smoliga, Abbey Weitzeil, Ericka Brown, Ryan Held, Hunter Armstrong and Diego Ribiero Summer McIntosh is an intriguing star to watch for on the road to Paris 2024. Only 16 years old, and already setting many records in the pool. She’ll be racing five events in Fort Lauderdale (200m Fly, 200m IM, 100m Free, 200m Free, 200m Back) Some notable scratches are the 400m Free (#4 ALL TIME) and the 400 IM (#3 ALL TIME). Also, will be watching closely during the 100 Free H/F, she doesn’t race it very much so we could be seeing a big PB.

Also, will be watching closely during the 100 Free H/F, she doesn’t race it very much so we could be seeing a big PB. Summer split 53.3 at Comm Games so is already capable of faster than her 100 Free best. Edited February 26, 2023 by dullard Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
