Your wildest nightmare would've been Ruta finishing 7th and Efimova getting gold

Well, I thought Rūta would finish outside the medals, but nothing lower than 4th. This is her worst breaststroke race in 4 years

It's sad that Ruta and Franklin are so off form in these Olympics If nothing else, I suppose 7th place is still less heartbreaking than finishing 4th because of "miss swimming"...

Another choke, this time by Guy.

Also disappointed with the Australians, I can understand Syd's frustration here. Backstroke was supposed to be one of their success stories this time. Oh well.

Sadly, I felt the 100m breast was going to be anticlimactic. , , all off the podium.

 

Thankfully Larkin has his pet event the 200m to come. Seebolm I'm almost glad she lost, she is as arrogant as they come, but it still doesn't make her perfomance good. I was more looking at the sprints for our success anyway.

Finally, some Australians who don't disappoint/peak wrong..

Grabich not even semis in the 100m FS, it's sad but I was predicting this.

Lol, Adrian and Zetao barely got in.

Gyurta's 200m Breaststroke title defense doesn't go past the heats. He missed the semis by two hundredths

Sadly i am sure that Hosszu will never be caught. As long as Efimova doesnt win everyone is happy, the hypocrisy is just sick.

 

Ok, Gyurta, you can retire now. This is a huge flop. The biggest so far... (and hopefully the only one)

Why is this quoted?

Our 4x200m men to the final by only 0,04 seconds, finally some luck
