CCB 488 Posted April 9, 2021 #241 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Dutch trials: Femke Heemskerk officially qualified for the 50 free (24.28) instead of Valerie van Roon. Ranomi Kromowidjojo with a fast 24.11. In the 100 butterfly Nyls Korstanje (51.93) missed his Olympic qualification by 0.01. There won't be Dutch starters in the 100 butterfly Benolympique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense in events where only 1 or 2 athletes reached the OQT standard, but it get tricky in events with more athletes. Especially when you consider that most of those OQT standards were done back in 2019. Then you have the whole choosing athletes for the relays.

Source: ResultList_16.pdf (swimcup.nl) Edit: Same for Florian Wellbrock and Lukas Märtens in Magdeburg: Wellbrock und Märtens schwimmen unter Olympianorm (swimsportnews.de) Very interesting. I think Wellbrock won’t swim this in Tokyo, so the other two should be safe. Very encouraging PB for Wellbrock by over a second though. The battle in the 800 and 1500 free could be more interesting. Märtens should definitely be able to reach the standard in the 1500 and Schwarz could also do it. The same is true in the 800 free, but I am not sure if Märtens will even swim that event. Mühlleitner could maybe achieve the 800 free standard as well if he tried. Hopefully this is also good news for the men’s 800 free relay. So far there were no promising times, but those 3 should be able to swim some decent times now. I am especially interested to see what Märtens can do in the 200 free. At the end of last year he was at 1:47.2 and 3:48.2, so hopefully his improvement in the 400 free is a good sign for his 200 free as well, he might be able to qualify in the 200 free. Bernd Berkhahn is a true magician. He developed Märtens into a world class athlete within one year and Gose looks also improved, although I wish that she would have focused on her 200 free a little bit longer. Edit: Maybe Imoudu can get the 100 breast standard tonight, he was 1:00.16 in prelims (Eindhoven). Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
