What's Milak doing in the 400m free? And that was also rather mediocre from Rapsys..

Milák is testing his endurance at this ECh, he's pretty much using this competition as a "training camp", so don't expect the most amazing times from him in his main events. His only goal at the ECh is to win two gold medals, the best times are for the Games.

Tobias Bjerg 2/100 away from the Olympic Standard. Fingers crossed in the semi!

Wow, impressive swim by the Serbians!

"Dominik Kozma, one of funniest Hungarian swimmers ever. He is also good swimmer."

Jeanette Ottesen seems to be ready for her 5th Olympic Games as she was faster than Emily Gantriis in the 4x100m freestyle. It was pretty much a direct race between those two for the last spot at the Olympics (which we aren't a 100 % sure to qualify for yet)

Both Hosszú and Késely have improved slightly in the last few months, but they are still nowhere near their best. Fortunately for Hosszú this might still be enough for the gold here.

It's not even funny how terrible our once (2018/19) talented long distance duo became. Total burnouts.

 

Grgić is becoming an expert of not starting races. I wonder if he has been spending time with Di Silvestris.

I would wait at least until the Olympics to judge him. Distance swimmers usually peak early, but I never heard of a male distance swimmer peaking at 16, so he might still improve. From a German perspective (Wellbrock) I obviously hope that he won’t do it though ...
