Swimming TV directors really need to start learning how to show a distance race....

 

 

There is a massive race for 3rd going on, but most of the time we see a lone leader where nothing happens. They should learn from F1 or plenty of other sports, where in case of a dominant leader, the places where fights are going on are shown.

Crazy level in women's 800 free. Gose finished 5th with a time that would have been enough for silver in 2022 and for bronze in 2021. Europe is getting killed here. I have hope that it will be different next year in a different time zone, but Europe definitely has a lot of catching up to do.

European gold medals in olympic events on the women's side: 1

European gold medals in olympic events on the men's side: 7
