Well, he has to focus on the Olympics, it makes sense. I read the interview he did with the Corriere della Sera a few days ago and he mentioned the 100m butterfly, maybe he will just go for the longer event. He is probably trying to figure out which individual competition he can add to his 2024 OG schedule.

 

I also think his program will probably change quite a bit in the four years leading to LA 2028 (he doesn't seem too enamoured with the 100m backstroke either, I would not be surprised if he left them or treated them as an afterthought after Paris).

well, next year I think he's going to focus on the 100m Free and Back, then he already said some time ago that he will start to explore the 200m back and he hopes (if his knee and hip stay healthy) to take the 200m IM seriously

imho, he should focus on the 100 & 200m free and back only, the IM races will be Marchand's territory for quite some time, I fear

Day 2 Finals Summary

 

 

Women's 100m Breastroke (Through to Finals)

 Ruta Meilutyte →  Lilly King →  Tatjana Schoenmaker →  Mona McSharry →  Eneli Jefimova →  Sophie Hansson →  Lydia Jacoby →  Satomi Suzuki

I had really expected  Tes Schouten to qualify for the finals this time, after a preseason with constant improvement of her PBs. Let's hope she makes it in the 200m at least.

Looking at the start lists, the men's 800m freestyle list is absolutely insane. Heats 3 and 4 alone could be a finals lineup. A lot of big names are going to miss out

[Topicmaster1010 2,403]

26.34 for  Qin in the 50m breaststroke heats. Looking good for another gold medal.

[Topicmaster1010 2,403]

The big 4 names from the women's 200m freestyle heats (Titmus, O'Callaghan, McIntosh, Haughey) finish as the top 4 seeds and all comfortably through to the semis.

Anybody watched heats of 200m freestyle and can tell me why Laura Bernat was disqualified?

I don't usually watch morning swim prelims, especially in the distances, but I'm getting ready to watch these two 800 heats.

[Topicmaster1010 2,403]

Insane times in the men's 800m freestyle heats. You needed a 7:45.80 to qualify for the final.

 

 Wellbrock is out! 

 

Also  Sam Short with a 7:40 prelims swim.  Finke is going to have his hands full.
