A great final, really. I'm surprised with Paltrinieri not even making the podium. I thought he had it in the bag, but nope.

He has been sick though, to be fair (mono, if I'm not mistaken).

Top 8 times this year of athletes who will compete at the Olympics (to the best of my knowledge):   In events, where Someone ranked in the top 8 might not compete, I also included the 9th ra

So only 3 European countries win gold medals in the swimming pool, :GBR  :ROC  :HUN This might be a new negative record.

The 'bright' side though is that USA is much less dominant than four years ago.

Bruno is so happy! He's been trying to get an Olympic medal for 10 years. He did everything he could for this medal. I can't believe he got it!

Sadly another expected gold for Finke. This guy has one of the most absurd progressions i have ever seen. From complete nobody to dominating Wellbrock/Romanchuk/Paltrinieri, the athletes who dominated men's distance freestyle for years, within a year. If i ever hear another american crying about russian doping again, i will cause a massacre. The US is the dirtiest country of them all, yet their fans somehow find a way to be stupid enough to think that they are the victim.

Non-gold medals like this are so much better than gold medals like Dressel's.

The final sprints from this guy lol. :d

Lol is the correct reaction. Wellbrock/Paltrinieri/Romanchuk dominated men's distance freestyle for the whole olympiad and then this nobody comes around and makes them look like amateurs. He is probably dirty enough to glow in the dark.

The new events helped the :USA , they will win 12, same as Beijing. They would have 10 without men's 800 free and women's 1500 free.

Obviously the main reason is the fact that the US forced morning finals on everyone else. Not easy to be at your best when you have to do it at 3 AM. I am sure that we will see a differet picture in 2024.

      Italy finally has a proper freestyle sprinter.  No disrespect to Pellegrini but she was more of a mid distance freestyler stretching down to the 100.
