Smart choice. Steenbergen would be at a big disadvantage if she did 6 x 200s before the 100 free.

Her 2023 World Championship schedule was nuts:

4x 50m Freestyle (Including swim off)

3x 100m Freestyle

3x 200m Freestyle

3x 200m IM

2x 4x100m Freestyle Relay

2x 4x200m Freestyle Relay

2x 4x100m Medley Relay

2x Mixed 4x100m Medley Relay

 

So that's 2.7km of swimming in 21 races. Dropping the 200 free is definitely the right move.

Being from a country where you have to swim relay prelims is such a huge disadvantage. Just ask Sjostrom. :cry: It's a huge shame Marrit didn't get back on track until after Ranomi and Femke retired.

Still can´t forgive the coaches making Sjöström waste too much energy in the relays in Rio with not to bad rankings but still with no chance of medals, compared to what she might have lost in the individual races. She was good enough for more than 1 gold-1 silver- 1 bronze that olympics.

 

The medal chances might be slightly higher in relays this time but she is still a too good team mate so she will race the relays this time too instead of doing the same distance in individual instead.

Some news from :LTU squad:

Danas Rapšys won't start in 100m freestyle to focus on other events

Tomas Navikonis and Tomas Lukminas selected for 4x200m freestyle relay to join Danas. Still waiting for the final swimmer announced.

    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
