orangeman 1,422 Posted July 30, 2023 #121 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Great results in the heats this morning. Hopefully two more medals on the way tonight, but the relay will be tight. Josh and Surlympics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intoronto 4,524 Posted July 30, 2023 #124 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Angus' time of 1:06.30 is amazing! Probably the best breaststroke split we have seen? If Masse/Oleksiak can return to form next year and Angus keeps this up, we might have a very strong medley relay Topicmaster1010 and Josh 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh 7,030 Posted July 30, 2023 #125 Share Posted July 30, 2023 If she keeps this up we could also have a shot at medalling in the final. And although we're probably going to secure a quota either way, it would be nice to qualify a relay to Paris 2024 before Doha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topicmaster1010 2,789 Posted July 30, 2023 Author #127 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Medley Relays for Finals Men: Acevedo -> Dergousoff -> Liendo -> Gaziev No changes as expected. Hoping to see Acevedo get the OQT but I doubt as he wasn't been able to replicate his performances at Canadian trials. The back half of the team is the biggest strength. Women: Masse -> Angus -> MacNeil -> McIntosh So I guess from an upside standpoint, putting McIntosh over an out of shape Ruck and Harvey would be the correct decision. She split 53.33 at the Commonwealth games 15 minutes after doing a 400m freestyle. But her performance on the 4x100m freestyle relay on night one was concerning. Hopefully she just had an off day and she can ride her momentum on what is hopefully a gold medal in the 400 IM. Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topicmaster1010 2,789 Posted July 30, 2023 Author #130 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Summer now has won more gold medals (4) at world championships than any other Canadian swimmer and she's still 16! Something tells me that number is going to go a lot higher intoronto and Surlympics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
