What records will break in Fukuoka?

I think 

Woman's: 

100 butterfly (macneil or huske)

50 breast (Meilutytė)

400 im (mcintosh)

400 free (titmus)

100 back (McKeown or Smith)

 

 

Men's:

400 im, 200 im ( marchand)

100 back (ceccon) second round

Expand  

Obviously impossible to predict this early. I think the following records in olympic events are safe: Men's 50/400/800 free, men's 100/200 breast, men's 200 back, men's 400 free relay, men's medley relay, women's 50/800/1500 free, women's 100 breast, women's 200 fly, women's 200 IM. The 3 records in olympic events for each gender that are (in my opinion) the most likely to be broken:

Men: 400 IM, 100 free, 200 IM/200 fly/100 back

Women: 200 back, 100 fly, 400 free/100 back/200 breast/400 IM/800 free relay

 

Number of world records in olympic events that were broken at the last 5 world championships:

2013: 2 (both by Ledecky)

2015: 5 (4 on the women's side (2 of them by Ledecky) + the mixed medley relay)

2017: 5 (4 on the women's side + the mixed medley relay)

2019: 4 (2 on both sides, but the 2 on the women's side were both in relays)

2022: 2 (both on the men's side)

-> From 2013 to 2017 not a single world record on the men's side was broken (but 10 on the women's side), but at the last two editions all 4 individual records that were broken were on the men's side. So if i would have to guess the number of records that will be broken, i would say 3 or 4.

 

Also interesting:

Oldest world record on the men's side: 400 IM (Phelps in 2008)

Oldest world record on the women's side: 200 free (Pellegrini in 2009)

Records on the men's side that were set before 2010: 50 free, 200 free, 400 free, 800 free, 200 back, 400 IM, 400 free relay, 800 free relay

Records on the women's side that were set before 2010: 200 free, 200 fly

Don't know about the women's 400 IM. It's on the last day and McIntosh will be tired, her best chance to attack that record will be on the trials if she is a bit rested. The other ones are hit or miss, I think only the 400FR will fall, maybe the 50BR.

 

On the men's side, Phelps record in the 400IM seems gone unless something happens to Marchand. The 200 IM I think will be a little tougher. The other one than can fall is the 200 BR.

If Paltrinieri were going to break the 1500 WR he'd have got it already imo so I think it's safe.

While the 4IM is on the final day she will probably have two days off before it.

You are right about Sjöstrom, I am going to edit my comment. I think Paltrinieri set a new PB just last year, so (surprisingly) I see no signs of decline.

luckily, no decline for him, yet.

 

but he's investing a lot of energy and training in the Open Water races, which is his main focus in 2023 (I mean, to qualify for the Olympics is not a joke in OWS, he just can't make any mistake in the World Race over 10k).

 

I'm not sure it will give him room to swim below 14.30 at the world champs, when OWS is also before the races in the Pool.

 

however, if there's a chance for him to break that barrier, it's at the Olympics, not this year.

hi, i thought we could. go make a prediction for the medals for the swimmers in fukuoka and compare opinions

 

For example, I think that summer will get the most gold (200 im, 400 im, 200 butterfly and 400 free) and maybe the 200 free will get a medal

 

These would be my anticipated oredictions to podiums, I would like to know yours in comments

I don’t think that it makes much sense to make predictions when many countries haven’t even had their trials yet. Personally I would be surprised if the following swimmers would win an individual medal:

Women:

50 free: Wasick

100 free: Steenbergen

100 breast: Van Niekerk/„China“ (Meilutyte? Elendt? King? Pilato?)

100 fly: Hansson/Wattel

400 IM: Franceschi/Colbert/Forrester

    • In the main round 4 groups created each will have 6 nations (3 qualified from each preliminary group). each team qualify with the points they gain from the teams qualified with them (the 4th team results are ignored) first 2 teams from the main round qualify to the quarter final   Group I:                                             4 PTS  4 PTS  2 PTS  1 PTS  1 PTS  0 PTS     Group II:  4 PTS  3 PTS  2 PTS  2 PTS  1 PTS  0 PTS   Group III:  4 PTS  3 PTS  3 PTS  2 PTS  0 PTS  0 PTS   Group IV:  4 PTS  4 PTS  2 PTS  2 PTS  0 PTS  0 PTS  
    • yesterdays' results:  VS  26-31 Very good result for  to qualify to the main round, the team improved (but not to compete with the high level yet).  is a fast and rapid team but lacking the strength and good defense.    VS  29-29, great game from both giants,  finished the first half 16-11 but a great comeback from  in second half with special thanks to Alex Dujshebev who scored in the last 6 seconds and to Dujshebev junior (Daniel) who saved the long shot from the center to secure the draw in a thriller game. De Vargas (  GK) did one great moment in the game when he saved a penalty and the Ref gave the Swedish player Hampus a red card thinking it came straight to De Vargas face but the GK told the ref it came to his hand asking the ref to cancel the red card in a great moment  (at that time the score was 20-14 to Sweden)      VS  28-38, great game from the African side,  is a big question mark, in 1999 Wch they finished 8th and since then the team performance was keep going down (decent number of players switched nationalities),  was leading the game from start till the end and secure a historical qualify to the main round.    VS  18-23, is it a surprise? ..yes and no ..  should be the more favorable side but their performance even in the European qualification was not great..  beat  in European qualification with 1 goal difference in a very tough game.  was performing very well from the beginning finishing the 1st half 14-8,  GK get the credit for such brilliant result.
