Angharad Evans gets a new PB in the final of the Edinburgh International meet with an OQT of 1:06.25 and more importantly, it's also within the British Swimming's nomination standard - now all she has to do is repeat that at the Trials next month but based on current form, got to believe she has a great chance of setting new British record and booking her ticket to Paris. Also worth mentioning Kara Hanlon - she clocked a 1:06.90 so needs to shave half a second off her time to meet the standard.

To be fair, all of the nations have competed in at least 7 qualifying events so they all have 5 scores to carry forward - it's always risky if you are going to rely on the last event to get the points for qualifying. In theory, World Triathlon could cite force majeure and arrange to add a mixed relay event at either Yokohama or Cagliari but it would complicate their qualification procedure.

In what way?

Harry Hepworth has put together a couple of decent performances in Baku and he has qualified for the final of both Vault and Rings. Scores: Rings - 14.300 - 4th place in qualifying Vault - 14.683 (14.600 / 14.766) - 2nd place in qualifying

The squad is expected to be finalised ahead of the start of the Tour de France.

Given the incompetence of Home Office I doubt she'll be getting her passport through before Olympics.

The Edinburgh International Swim Meet kicks off tomorrow. There will be a stream available but not sure if it will be geo-blocked. Live stream 2024 – EISM

Bad night for the Balkan nations as both and lose their final fighters. also bows out.

With Patris Murghalzai bowing out of the competition this evening I thought it was worth doing a trawl to see if there was any update on Reese Lynch. For those not aware, it turns out that Lynch was competing at the European Games with a possible rib stress fracture in his back. About a month after the games, the rib broke. This was followed by a further rib break about a month or so later - apparently occurring whilst helping his mum bring her shopping in from the car. All of this means that Lynch hasn't fought competitively since the European Games. As of the end of January, Lynch has been cleared to shadow box and is hoping to be in the frame for selection for the final Olympic qualifying tournament in Bangkok at the end of May.

Probably last for the tournament - with the streaming starting tomorrow not sure my unofficial results service will be needed
