Tough start for Mia Vallee, and it’s looking like only one of her or Ware will be at Paris. Women’s 3m synchro/individual (was expecting 2 instead of 1) events have to probably be one of the most shocking non-qualifications so far. 

Yikes, 25th and 29th in prelims!? Yesterday must have taken a big toll mentally

Summer McIntosh can now swim in the 10km at the Olympics if she feels like it :P

Artistic swimming team has qualified for Paris!

Rylan Wiens and Nathan Zsombor-Murray safely through to the semifinals in men’s 10m platform. Likely enough for Canada to secure a second individual Olympic quota in this event.

Canada defeats New Zealand 14-12 to advance to the women’s water polo quarterfinals to face Spain. Not exactly our best game. But our main goalkeeper Gaudreault was resting, so I’m not too worried.

5th and 9th for Rylan Wiens and Nathan Zsombor-Murray in the men’s 10m platform final. Great comeback for Wiens, after missing last years World Championships due to injury. 
 

99.90 (!) on Wien’s third dive was the highlight of the day, with 5 9.0’s and 2 8.5’s on a forward 4 1/2 somersaults in tuck position (3.7 difficulty)

 

I’ll try and see if I can find a video.

Not only that, but more importantly we fail to win Olympic quotas in two of the events we were expected to contend for a medal in (women’s 3m/3m synchro)

 

At least we won an unexpected team quota in artistic swimming

Good swims from both Pickrem and McMillan who both easily qualify to the 200 IM semis in 2nd and 7th.

 

On another note, I VPN'd to SVT (Swedish network) and I have no idea what's going on
