Don't you think she could still challenge for gold in 400IM after that 4:34 swim at Europeans?

I mean... the gold is also a medal. :d She can win it, but given the circumstances I am don't want to say that the gold is the expected result from her. She has just as much of a chance to take the gold as any of the other favorites in 400 IM, but she isn't the clear frontrunner anymore.

Six Polish swimmers who are in Tokyo already have to go home since our federation cocked up the entry criteria and send them based on B standard which actually requires a special invitation from FINA to be eligible. The invitation never happened (duh). The biggest affected name is Alicja Tchorz.

 

Our federation made a similar error in Rio but it only affected one swimmer back then.

1. Poland send 14 names (should 10) and FINA  send email that is incorrect 2. Poland send 7 swimmers (better for FINA, because less than 10), and 7 with minimum B... And FINA did not informed our federation funny. They make mistake too, FINA should let 3 our swimmers start in Tokyo. Because 10 is the limit.
