Swimming at the Aquatics FINA World Championships 2017


Recommended Posts

Overall the level in womens 400 free was pretty bad, but its nice to see younger girls performaning at their best here. I think either Li or Titmus will win a medal. Weird to not see girls like Kapas, Carlin, Friis or Ashwood in this.

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

Swimming not showing things like PB/NR/SB etc in the results definitely is something they're still behind on compared to athletics. There's not even PB's in the start lists, that just sucks.

 

Instead of such usefull marks, they filled the screen this time with a bunch of useless graphics. :p

Exactly! +0.1m, showing someone is 10 centimeters behind, come on, we're not blind :d (and if we were, those graphics would not be very useful anyway)

 

It's sad to see swimming is so far behind other sports with these kind of things.

Julio Maglione (81) is still the FINA President...

with some "magic" in the whole procedure, the elections that took place earlier today also designated Husain Al Musallam as vice-president...

to be noticed that Al Musallam is also president of the Asian Olympic Committees Association and involved in many scandals (there's a video where he tried to get money from a potential Chinese sponsor, another procedure in the US where he's charged with attempted corruption of a soccer referee and other major and minor issues always about corruption here and there)...

moreover, FINA reinstated Vladimir Salnikov among their Bureau members (Salnikov is deeply involved in the Russian State Doping affair)...

what a wonderful and transparent future is ahead of all swimmers and swimming fans throughout the entire world...:whistle::facepalm:

Ah, thank goodness there are fresh new faces here to shaken up the sport and bring in innovative ideas.

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

No, they changed it to artistic swimming :p

 

Which makes just as much sense as synchronized swimming, by the way, so no problem with that.

They should rename it "Not in the Olympics" so the IOC don't have a choice

    • Ooooooh the group of Canada , they play in Toronto then Vancouver ...look at the distance   
    • now the shooting sport takes a little Christmas break and the new season resumes in January with the Asian Championships for the Shotgun specialists ( Doha, Jan. 11th through 22nd)   the World Cup will be back in late March, beginning in  Tangiers (March 25th through April 3rd, Shotgun specialists only)   the Rifle and Pistol specialists will start their new season with the European 10m Championships in  Yerevan (Feb. 27th through March 5th) and the 1st World Cup stage for them will be in  Granada in April (5th through 13th)   300m, 25m and 50m European Champs will be in  Osijek (May 30th through June 21st), meanwhile the Shotgun European Champs will be held in  Athens from Sept. 27th through Oct. 13th
    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
