Shocking result: two time defending world champion :FRA Aurelie Muller misses the Olympics by 0.1 seconds after leading with about 200m to go. Since her teammate Lara Grangeon finished in the top 10 she won't be at the Olympics unless she drops out.

Even if she drops out, Muller (and Bridi) will not compete in Tokyo. The pass are nominal and not for the NOC.

Wow, after all shoulder problems Sharon van Rouwendaal gets an Olympic place, so she can defend her Olympic title from Rio 2016. Last year in European Championships she was superwoman with 3 golds, this time she expected nothing due to her shoulder. Unfortunately Dutch Esmee Vermeulen :NED didn't qualify, but neither did Muller :FRA and Bridi :ITA . Quite shocking in my opinion!

Waking to a shock...after the Rio episode, Bruni-Muller part 2 arrives. French staff protested that Bruni intentionally impeded Muller but protest rejected shortly afterwards.

Yet to see the video so will see happens now.
