Swimming at the Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024


Recommended Posts

After Carson Foster's 1:43 split in Doha I wouldn't be surprised if he can go 1:44 flat start which puts the US much closer to GBR. GBR won't be able to get away with having a leg underperform like in Tokyo.

Completely forgot about Foster and that he wasn't able to swim this event at trials. Thanks. He should be on the finals team.

Although the heats schedule hasn't come out yet, it's possible to estimate the start times with some simple math. If we assume that there's going to be 8 swimmers per heat like in past Olympics, then dividing the # of entries by 8 and rounding up should give us the # of heats. Then using the 2024 World Aquatics Championships schedule, we can divide the length of each event by the number of heats to get a rate. The results are below.

 

It'll be interesting to see how the women's 800m and 1500m freestyle heats will be done. There's 17 entries in each event which means if there's 8 swimmers per heat, there'll be 3 heats in total. However, the unseeded heat would only have 1 swimmer. They might just move them to one of the seeded heats so there's 9+8 swimmers in the two heats. Otherwise, we might end up with an Eric the Eel situation in both events.

Nations that are expected to win at least one individual medal on both sides:

:USA
:AUS

:CHN
:CAN

:ITA

Only issue with this is that some swimmers are inexplicably not entered with their best times. McKeown entered the 2IM with her time from Nationals and not Trials. Her trials time would have made her top seed but instead she is second seed, so really AUS should be +1 gold and USA -1

World Aquatics said it is closely monitoring the Chinese swimmers who will participate in the Paris Games, using increasingly frequent checks by the International Testing Agency. There is talk of at least eight checks from 1 January 2024 until the end of the five-ring event.

Don’t see the point. They have been caught before and nothing happened. They should use their money more wisely and test some athletes from small/irrelevant nations that they can easily ban without any backlash. For example: Crooks, Jaouadi, Tuncelli, Meilutyte, Schoenmaker 

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

 Not sure if these are reliable but I found these on LeMonde with the breakdown of heats, not only in swimming:

Unfortunately, I don't think that's accurate. There's no way there'll be 6 heats of the women's 200m butterfly when there's only 19 swimmers, or at least I hope not.

Too good to be true :d. Like I said, wasn’t sure if they were reliable but I think you’ve just confirmed they are irrelevant :d

    • Happy finals day  Let the massacre begin 
    • Big blow for Sweden. Leo Carlsson expected to miss 3-5 weeks with a lesion in his left thigh so he'll surely miss the Olympics.   Nylander, Hedman, Erik Karlsson, Brodin, Eriksson Ek, and Landeskog are all currently injured. 
    • Moguls quotas are done   Men:   4 quotas: 3 quotas: 2 quotas: 1 quota: *   Reserves are   The Italian athlete with a quota is ineligible to Australia should get the quota. Canada will likely reject one quota so then France would another quota as well. The US may also reject a quota.   Women:   4 quotas: 3 quotas: 2 quotas: 1 quota:   Reserves are   Canada may reject one quota.
