Team GB Daily: Day 1

[RussB 189]

the 100m breast times are really slow suprisingly...not sure what it means for the final but both Adam and Qin going very high 58s, entire field covered by 0.5 secs.

 

I guess Adam leads after 75 and tries to hang on with the field chasing him down

To be fair the res tof them don’t look as strong for the 4 x 200m as well.

still my positives; Richards in particular looks in good form. Tom Dean seemed to make progress in leg 3. Dressel to me doesn't look like as serious a threat to Proud in the 50m as I thought.

The 3 200 boys all swam well, and are all stronger on the back end of the 2 so don't agree with the above

It just feels like swimming deserves an excellent meet in primetime after two games or finals in the middle of the night but that might not happen.

did he dive too deep do you think or just missed the change? cause it was literally as you said, killed us

Apparently the takeovers were fine (0.20 0.19 0.21) but he came up a full bodylength almost from where he should have been, was there a slip or something?

I completely missed it "live", honestly no clue.
