Women’s 100 free

Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom powered by the U.S. Open record in the women’s 100-meter free at the 2016 Arena Pro Swim Series Austin.

Sjostrom, who clocked a fourth-ranked 52.70 last year at Worlds, threw down a 53.12 to win the finale tonight.

That swim downed the previous U.S. Open mark of 53.30 set by Australia’s Cate Campbell back in 2008 at the Santa Clara Invitational.

NCAP’s Katie Ledecky, who already set a personal best with a 54.45 this morning, demonstrated her readiness for the women’s 400-meter free relay internationally with a stunning 53.75.  She would have ranked as the second fastest American last year behind Missy Franklin (53.68) last year, and been in the top 10 in the world.

Canyon’s Abbey Weitzeil raced her way into third with a time of 54.00, while Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu failed to make the podium with a fourth-place 54.37.

HPCO’s Sandrine Mainville (54.63), Franklin (54.78), SwimAtlanta’s Amanda Weir (55.07) and HPCO’s Chantal Van Landeghem (55.49) also swam in the finale.

California’s Natalie Coughlin, who ranked 15th in the world last year with a 53.85 at the Pan Am Games, clocked a switch 54.50 to top the B final. SwimMAC’s Madison Kennedy took second in 54.78.

BlueFish’s Laura Sogar topped the women’s 200-meter breast with the second-fastest swim of the night at the 2016 Arena Pro Swim Series Austin.

Women’s 100 fly

Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom claimed her second U.S. Open mark of the night with a blazing 100-meter fly at the 2016 Arena Pro Swim Series Austin.

Sjostrom, who trailed by .01 at the turn, turned on the jets to win the finale in 56.38.  That swim undercut the previous U.S. Open mark of 56.42 set by Dana Vollmer during semifinals at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2012.

Vollmer, who is shaking off a bit of a bug from a few days ago and scratched the 100 free to focus on the 100 fly, claimed second in 57.61.   That time would have ranked her ninth in the world last year behind Sjostrom’s world record 55.64 from Worlds.

California’s Noemie Thomas closed out the top three with a time of 58.38, while teammates Kelly Naze (58.62) and Farida Osman (59.18) took fourth and fifth.

Texas A&M’s Sarah Gibson (59.23), SoFlo’s Claire Donahue (59.44) and Stanford’s Felicia Lee (59.58) also swam in the A final.

HPCO’s Audrey Lacroix touched out NCAP’s Cassidy Bayer, 59.93 to 59.98, in the B final.

Men’s 100 fly

The Greatest of All Time Michael Phelps bested a loaded field in the men’s 100-meter fly at the 2016 Arena Pro Swim Series Austin.

Phelps powered his way past the field with a strong back half to win the finale in 51.94.  That’s well off his top-ranked time of 50.45 from last summer’s U.S. Nationals, but is easily his best time in January in his career.

Phelps’ previous best time in January occurred in 2012 here in Austin with a 52.41.

California’s Tom Shields took second overall in 52.39, off his fifth-ranked 51.03 from last summer.

SwimMAC’s Tim Phillips placed third in 52.61 with Phoenix’s Giles Smith missing the podium with a 52.70.

SwimMAC’s Ryan Lochte (52.73), SwimMAC’s Matt Josa (52.84), Sweden’s Simon Sjodin (53.31) and Singapore’s Zheng Wen Quah (53.33) placed fifth through eighth.

Texas’ Jack Conger won the B final in a time of 52.72. Santa Clara’s Kyler Van Swol placed second in 53.38.
