good race by McIntosh, but she's way too slow in the breaststroke leg, you can't lose 2 and a half seconds on Hosszu's WR pace in 50m...

 

she will never beat the 200m WR if she doesn't improve dramatically in the breaststroke section...

she's also 15 - lots of room for improvement.

Jones (30.95) 4th and Perry (33.18) 8th in the para final there

sure...

 

but it's not going easy...if she focus on her freestyle and butterfly races (and the 400 IM), it might happen that she'll never be good enough in breaststroke...

 

breaststroke is a very tough beast for those who can't swim "naturally" and it's definitely a threat to the other styles in terms of coordination and of required skills...

Ghana was leading up to the very last second... When they decided to tackle the Canadian player with a stick and allow them a penalty kick.

 

You just can't make this stuff up. Pathetic.
