Vektor 3,196 Posted July 29, 2023 #594 Share Posted July 29, 2023 50.14, same as Milák last year. Not as fast as peak Dressel and peak Milák in Tokyo, but they might never repeat those times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sjöström is one of the most sweet and enjoyable swimmers out there, but to be fair Phelps competed at only 6 WC (and practically 5, since he did only 1 discipline in 2001 at 15), while this is Sarah's 8th WC. Doesn't take the fact, that she is one of the greatest female swimmers ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as fast as peak Dressel and peak Milák in Tokyo, but they might never repeat those times. He went from being completely irrelevant to one of the fastest all time within one year. If you would have asked experts about the favorite in the 100 fly before the start of the year, they probably would have mentioned 50 other guys before they would have mentioned Grousset. With the olympics being in Paris he has to be the favorite. I wonder what he could have done in the 50 free. I think he would have won silver if he would have competed.
