I think Australia will win it this time.

 

It will also cost the United States the overall top spot in the medal tally (going by most gold medals).

1. Which 3 swimmers are you most excited for?

2. Your 3 Brave predictions for Swimming at Paris

3. Your country's swimming predictions 

1.Ariarne Titmus, Summer McIntosh, Thomas Ceccon (mention of Honor for Rikako Ikee, because of her personal history)

 

2.Ceccon winning both men's 100m and 200m Backstroke; Marchand flopping big time (= no gold for him); Paltrinieri doin'it again (= getting a podium in the pool and in the open water)

 

3.7 total medals: 2 gold medals (Ceccon, men's 100m + 200m backstroke), 2 silver medals (Paltrinieri, men's 1500m free; Quadarella, women's 1500m free), 3 bronze medals (Martinenghi, men's 100m breaststroke; men's 4*100m free relay; men's 4*100m medley relay)

depending on participation (Titmus and/or McIntosh might/should miss the women's 800m free), Quadarella might get a silver or bronze also in that race, improving the total to 8

Titmus will be competing in the 800 free most likely.

Well for one, I think US is going to top the medal table based off of Trials results so far, Australia’s men’s squad is a bit of a question mark. 
 

1. Caleb Dressel, Sarah Sjostrom, but mainly Summer McIntosh. 
 

2. McIntosh only wins one Olympic gold in the women’s 400m individual medley (I hope I’m wrong…), Jackl wins silver with a HUGE PB, Haughey wins gold over MOC in the women’s 100m freestyle, a random no name medals in the men’s 200m freestyle, and Walsh doesn’t win gold in the women’s 100m butterfly. I know that’s 5 :facepalm:

 

3. Gold for McIntosh in the women’s 400m individual medley, silver in the women’s 200m individual medley/200m butterfly, and bronze in the women’s 400m freestyle. Bronze for Maggie MacNeil in the women’s 100m butterfly, Kylie Masse in the women’s 100m backstroke, women’s 4x100m medley relay, and silver for Josh Liendo in the men’s 100m butterfly (behind Dressel). 8 medals but only 1 gold. 

1. Which 3 swimmers are you most excited for?

Summer McIntosh, Leon Marchand and Marrit Steenbergen

 

2. Your 3 Brave predictions for Swimming at Paris

I don't know enough about swimming to make good predictions, but I'll try. I predict Adam Peaty to make a great comeback to win the 100m breaststroke, Leon Marchand to win the 400m medley in a world record (lapping his competition) and at least one controversial disqualification of a medal candidate in a relay.

 

3. Your country's swimming predictions

:NED I'm predicting three silvers: Marrit Steenbergen W 100m freestyle and Tes Schouten W 100m+200m breaststroke.

    • I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->   
    • Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)  
    • That's what I'd plan as well (except for MelFest), but I also know I am hypocritical enough to still want to watch the show and have a fun evening  
    • Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.  
    • Got our first competition of the season coming up in Solitude, Utah  this weekend.  Live on Discovery Plus etc, plus also YouTube and the Olympic Channel.  If you are new to the sport, the sprint races on Saturday will be the format you'll find easy to understand.     ISMF   ISMF Skimo - YouTube    
    • Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
    • @Josh skimo mixed relay is on Saturday, not Sunday, FYI

No Snow League Freeski Finals, Heerenveen Speed Skating WC, Alpine Skiing WC either. 
    • Oh dear oh dear.  Going to be ructions with this one.  Established international diver Sofia Lyskun wants to transfer from..... to !     Somehow I think the three year rule will be enforced.   Sofiia Lyskun: Ukrainian federation 'expresses deep indignation' after champion diver switches to Russia - BBC Sport
