Ghiotto destroys the competition and defends his world title in style!
 
 wins the silver and bronze as Ted Jan Bloemen and Graeme Fish finish in 2nd and 3rd place. 
 
 

Jake Foster has more gold medals than Carson Foster .
 
Who would've thought.

Rory Linkletter qualifies for Paris in men’s marathon through the Seville Marathon! 

Pretty cool eh?

Men's 4x100m Medley Relay Quotas:
 

 
 already qualified
 
Reserves:  

Sarah Sjöströms butterfly yesterday would be good enough to be 5th best in the 50 Free style semi finals

Romania  is going to the Olympics after South Africa  declined the quota.

Congrats to our Canadian friends! It's great to have a competitive team like Canada going to Paris instead of South Africa (in my opinion, it's better for the sport). Although of course now that Greece finally qualified again, South Africa decides to decline the quota. Why couldn't they do that for Tokyo when we were the first alternates? 

My first correct prediction this tournament.
 
 win the women’s team pursuit, silver for  Canada and  Japan wins bronze. 

I am once again asking the IOC to add the team sprint in the Olympic program.

Three semifinals and one national record for Mexico in swimming in the 4x200 men’s relay.
 
Not bad considering there’s no national federation.
 

Canadian women's teams finding all kinds of ways to get into the Olympics this week, but I'll take it!

LMAO - I just read the CBC Headline. It's kinda funny how South Africa didn't accept the quota and all of this was a moot point.
 
 

I was thinking the exact same thing

As long as it doesn't go at the cost of another event...

Or if the Dutch national team has a good coach. In the women's teamsprint competition The Netherlands' performance was really bad due to a mistake by our coach. 
 
The Dutch men on the other hand performed well. Congrats to Canada to win the men's teamsprint as well by 0.002 

They have improved a lot, will be exciting to see what they can do this summer.

I am once again asking the IOC to add the team sprint in the Olympic program.

And here is the gold medal for  
 
Silver for  and bronze for  
 
9 medals awarded to 7 different countries so far

Gold for  Schouten, silver for  Weidemann and bronze for  Sáblíková. 
 
What a great first podium of this tournament with three amazing skaters! 

Ester Ledecká is BAAACK!!!! Last week 2nd and 4th in the Europa Cup. Today, she has the fastest time in training. After a very long time, when she had a broken collarbone, may finally fight for a WC podium again 💪💪💪 Com'on Ester!!! 

Any chance we could have Summer swim two legs of the relay?  

Barbora Seemannová 4th , aka best result for Czech since medal in 2003. This girl has a vibe. Also 4th in 100m Freestyle heats..... And her form is increasing before Paris. We are hoping she could be the one who wins the first swimming Olympic medal for Czech in history .....

I hear it is also likely that the United Kingdom will boycot the games due to Australia considering becoming a Republic.

Hard to tell, as far as I know nobody can find their selection criteria.
 
South Africa does have a history of rejecting continental team quota, Tokyo was sort of an exception to that.
