Our tv just showed a close up of King's touch. It seems she makes a very soft touch with her left hand while she makes a strong one with the right hand. Maybe the left hand wasn't registered.

Yeah kind of expected it would be between Singapore and South Korea for the last spot, Portugal was likely to finish last.

Maybe she should talk to Milorad Cavic about alleged soft touches on the wall.  Is Efinova sponsored by the official time keeper as well?

When I swam my coach always stressed hitting the wall hard. For specifically that reason.

I was just lucky if anyone was still around me by the time I finished. I was especially bad a breaststroke. I’d say my best of Fly, which is funny because I have very little upper body strength.

from swimswam...

 

"American breaststroke star Lilly King was disqualified in the third heat of the 200 breast Thursday morning in Gwangju, and nearly two-and-a-half hours later, we’ve received word that USA Swimming’s protest of the decision will be heard by the Jury of Appeal before the next session begins at 8 p.m. local time Thursday.

 

King won the prelims heat, then turned at the scoreboard and reacted with shock upon seeing the DQ. According to the Italian broadcast, she walked to the officials’ table to protest, and was turned away. King was apparently not given a reason for her DQ when she asked after her race.

 

USA Swimming also did not know what it was for until about 30 minutes after the race, when it was told that King did a “non-simultaneous touch” on her first turn."

It's a shame that so few nations participated. Neither Great Britain nor Italy sent a team.

 

obviously...except for Pellegrini, at the moment we don't have a swimmer capable of going below the 2-min mark (yeah, maybe a couple of non-specialists like Quadarella, Cusinato or Panziera could swim 1.59, but not more than that)...

we didn't start the women's 4*100m free relay, too...our women's team is not as deep as the men's...

      Do or die for the US women.  Japan has nothing to play for, but I'm sure they would love to beat Norway if they have to face them again.  Let's go Tabitha!

      Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony.

      That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
