Qualifying Event in Heidelberg

 

The following Athletes swam the national standards this morning in the preliminaries and are qualified for Tokyo, unless there will be two faster Germans in this event:

 

100m Breaststroke:

 

Fabian Schwingenschlögl  59,20

 

200m Butterfly:

 

David Thomasberger  1:55,51 (NR)

 

The event, which was originally planned for Würzburg, is FINA approved and the first of four German meetings in April, where German swimmers can get the standards.

It's not yet that the german standard, but they might nominate her anyway, even if she doesn't reach it.

Here's a list of the German swimmers who so far have fulfilled the national qualification standards. I assume it will be updated after every meeting: Diese DSV-Schwimmer haben die Olympianormen geknackt | Stand 04.04.2021 (swimsportnews.de)

 

The athletes with an asterisk by their name are already nominated. The other ones could theoretically still be out of the team, if there are two faster Germans until April 20th. But at least in the cases of Schwingenschlögl and Thomasberger this is highly unlikely to basically impossible. Kullmann at 400 freestyle could still be in danger.

Hopefully she won’t be nominated with this time. She should try again next weekend.
