phelps 6,536 Posted February 15, 2020 Author #11 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) not the best opener for the Italian swimmers...all of our main specialists were not ready to face the hard fight of the final meters and got only average placings... Arianna Bridi, who missed out on the Olympic qualification and has the world cup success as her main target of the season was just edged out by the 3 girls on the podium in the final sprint finishing 4th, meanwhile Rachele Bruni, our only Olympic weapon in the women's event, finished 6th, 3 secs behind the girls who made the podium... among the men, Paltrinieri couldn't resist the final forcing by Olivier and the 2 German guys and ended up only 5th, 14 secs behind the winner... our other Olympic hope, Mario Sanzullo, ended up in the middle of the main group, 20th place, about 20 secs behind Olivier... p.s. now I'm curious to see how much time it takes FINA to update their website with the full results...
