Hungarian media is reporting that Kristof Milak isn't training again

 

If it's true then I guess Marchand is favourite in the 200 fly.

Lewis Clareburt :NZL produced a world leading 4:08.71 in the 400 IM at Sydney Open this evening. Not a particularly important meet especially for a Kiwi so you have to think he'll be faster in Paris.

Greek National Championships this weekend. After 18 yo Siskos broke the NR in Doha in the men's 200 backstroke with 1:56.64, now Christou takes the record back with 1:56.34! Good to have such competition in that event and hopefully one of them will break the record again in Belgrade and Paris.

Iona Anderson :AUS had another big breakthrough in the 100 back yesterday going 58.53 in a time trial at a local meet in Perth. That's only 0.01s off McKeown's 18 years old age record.

Great time by Anderson!

Depth in W 100m Back is looking great for Australia 

It isnt just the Kaylee show and 2nd spot at the trials will be exciting 

MOC - 58.0 Will she swim it?

Seebohm - 58.2 Shes back?

Anderson -58.5

Barclay -59.2 Still a junior swimmer

Fredericks -59.6

 

And will Minna Atherton be back?

MOC's gonna go 57 at trials if she can swim straight.

Seebohm doesn't have enough time left to get into that kind of form but she plans to swim on after Paris and she's progressing consistently in the right direction so maybe next year?

Anderson might even go faster!

Ditto Barclay and Fredericks.

Be surprised if Atherton is any quicker than 59 high. She might even be done tbh.

I agree about MOC.

She swum that 58.0 in pouring rain hitting the ropes all the way.

 

The W100m back seems to be dominated by AUS,USA and a Canadian over the past 2-3 years

its possible that 58 low wont even make an Australian or US Olympic team

    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind , 
    • The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.
    • I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
