Round 1 of Smith vs. McKeown coming up

A Slovenian made the men's 50m breast final!

15:26.27 is Ledecky's 3rd fastest time in her career

According to the Canadian broadcast, Popovici needed 5 minutes to catch his breath, needed a chair to sit down on and was only able to do one interview before walking away. Hope everything's okay with him

Time for another episode of the Katie Ledecky show

It's pronounced like 'Popovich'

Oh my goodness, Popovici off the podium!!! I knew Richards was in good form but wasn't expecting him to take gold here

Insane times in the men's 800m freestyle heats. You needed a 7:45.80 to qualify for the final. Wellbrock is out! Also Sam Short with a 7:40 prelims swim. Finke is going to have his hands full.

The big 4 names from the women's 200m freestyle heats (Titmus, O'Callaghan, McIntosh, Haughey) finish as the top 4 seeds and all comfortably through to the semis.

1:55.88 and eased off on the last 25m. That's more like the Summer we know!

26.34 for Qin in the 50m breaststroke heats. Looking good for another gold medal.

Looking at the start lists, the men's 800m freestyle list is absolutely insane. Heats 3 and 4 alone could be a finals lineup. A lot of big names are going to miss out

Auboeck beats Matsumoto in a swimoff for the final spot in the men's 200m free final

Finally a gold medal for the US

Pan doesn't make the 200m freestyle final!

Both Masse and Wilm advance to the finals! Medals will be tough to get though

Gold for Ceccon! and medal for Ribeiro

Ruta on fire!

Hunter Armstrong is the luckiest guy on the planet. Qualifies to the semis in 16th, qualifies to the finals in 8th Looks like it'll be a showdown between Ceccon, Xu and Murphy

Wow, this first semifinal is stacked!

Slower final than I expected tbh but happy with the silver for Maggie!

Silver for Maggie!
