thiago_simoes 1,359 Posted December 15, 2018 #72 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Fu Yanhui failed to get a medal altogether on the 50 m backstroke event, even with Ethiene Medeiros out of competition. Now this is what I call underperformance on home soil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaBUru38 204 Posted December 15, 2018 #75 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Excuse my total ignorance. I saw some races, and swimmers spend 70% of the distance underwater doing dolphin kick, rather than actually swimming the appropriate style. I think it makes no sense at all. thiago_simoes and Quasit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
