Thank you. Does it also count for an Olympic quota? None of the Greek sports sites mentioned that, they only talk about NR

That I do not know....

One of them just posted that he achieved the standard so I guess it counts. He was already qualified for two other events in Tokyo, so that's probably why they didn't make a big deal out of it.

sure, the 1st leg of any relay (except for the mixed gender one) is an official clocking, counting as NR, CR, WR, OR if that's the case and as OQT for those who haven't got it yet...

Woohoo!  Gold, NR & OQ!

 

Silver for the men’s 4x100F!. First Euro medal in this race since 1962. NR & OQ!

The women's gold was the first in this event since 1927 and the men's silver only the second in the event following the 1962 medal to which you referred.

Wow, Emelie was Fast.

Breaststroke is such a pointless stroke. Everyone just does as many dolphin kicks as he wants. 

[phelps 7,746]

ouch! that's painful...being the 3rd fastest overall and being eliminated because the top 2 are from the same Nation...

Pilato being the losing side of the Italian internal fight in the women's 100m Breaststroke...

Swimming will never get rid of this completely absurd rule of allowing more than two competitors per country per event to start the heats, but only two to go through to the next round, right? Again, now we've got the women's 100m breaststroke where this dumb rule means we will miss literally one of the three/four best athletes in the semis because of having the same flag as two others who were faster.
