Kate Douglass finally getting a gold for the USA women swimming team

Seeing some footage of a catwalk in front of the Eifel Tower for the medalists... a lap of honor.
Don't recall any other OG having done something like this. Pretty cool.

Kate Douglass finally getting a gold for the USA women swimming team

I really wonder what she’d go long course 100 breast and 200 free

Obviously she does the 200 breast and 200 IM.. but she was the faster American in the 100 free before huske at the Olympics and still the fastest american in the 50 free

She did the breast leg on the relays for UVA

But given she was out in 1:07.09 she might legit be the best option for the US on the breastroke leg of the medley with huske as the anchor

Marchand is about to come out for the 200m individual medley semi no.2

Also gonna be looking at Canada’s Finlay Knox, who won the gold in this distance at the world championships in February.

Gonna probably need a near PB to advance to his first Olympic final in this field

USA 3x3 Women finally got a W

 

[rolaholic]

Lightwork for Marchand cruising into the final

Seto 2nd and Knox got 3rd, let's see if it's good enough to sneak into the Final...

*just snuck in , he fell off with the breastroke but he finished strong with the final freestyle portion. Gonna start the final in lane 8

IATT Aussies got this relay coming up right?

IATT Aussies got this relay coming up right?

Easily.. just by swapping in titmus and MOC, they drop 8-9 seconds from prelims time

Womens relay final coming up

If I was just a century older damb

Expecting Australia, China and the US to be the podium here but let's see if the Canadians can shock people

Summer's great but not feeling great about the team overall especially without Oleksiak or MacNiel

Ledecky Making It Interesting.

 

[rolaholic]

Holy **** Ledecky

She made up ALL the ground on the Aussies but might be for naught with Titmus anchoring for them

 

[uncalled4boy]

Didnt Realize Titmus Was Anchoring

 

[Sinner]

Wow... Aussies!

 

[rolaholic]

Olympic record for the Aussies, hell of a swim. USA no.2 with China 3rd.

Canada in 4th, Summer moved them up and Brosseay had a strong anchor leg

Expecting Australia, China and the US to be the podium here but let's see if the Canadians can shock people

Summer's great but not feeling great about the team overall especially without Oleksiak or MacNiel

Why was Oleksiak not in this relay?

 

[daruma]

crazy, thought usa was about to sneak the gold

 

[rolaholic]

Why was Oleksiak not in this relay?

She missed out on the individual events and the 4x100 relay is the only final she swam in this time.

Been battling injuries as of late so they went with a much younger relay team.

It's a shame to see given how young she still is, just turned 24, and how good she was in Rio and Tokyo. She's still the most decorated Canadian summer Olympian of all time off of those 2 games.

Probably not gonna be for too much longer though with Summer already almost halfway there to her total

Why Sabrina pull up like that up 10 with 5 seconds left? Point differential?
