Commentary by Jeff Commings<\/i><\/p>\n

PHOENIX, Arizona, August 17. POLAND\u2019S Radoslaw Kawecki is becoming one of the world\u2019s best 200 backstrokers, winning the 2012 short course world title and placing second to Ryan Lochte last year at world championships.<\/p>\n

In two years, he will definitely be in the medal conversation at the Rio Olympics, but for now, he is the undisputed favorite in the 200 back at this week\u2019s European championships. Kawecki didn\u2019t need to taper to qualify for Europeans, so nothing should be gleaned from his 1:56.45 that he swam at Hungarian nationals. Yes, it\u2019s only<\/i> 11th in the world, but it\u2019s also just a tick slower than the fastest time by a European swimmer \u2013 not counting Arkady Vyatchanin. Hungary\u2019s Peter Bernk swam a 1:56.42 at the same meet as Kawecki, and while the two will be faster in Berlin, Kawecki will be at least a body length ahead of Bernk at the end of the race.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure if Kawecki\u2019s European record of 1:54.24 from worlds is in jeopardy, given that the Pole will not have a lot of competition. But it\u2019s possible he\u2019ll have his eyes on what\u2019s going on at the Pan Pacific championships and will want to beat any times posted there. It would take a 1:54 to do that.<\/p>\n

Behind Bernk, a world championship finalist, a few swimmers in the 1:56-high or 1:57-low range will fight for medals. Andrey Shabasov and Jan-Philip Glania appear to be the major contenders.<\/p>\n

Men\u2019s 200 backstroke medal predictions:
\nGold:<\/b> Radoslaw Kawecki, Poland
\nSilver:<\/b> Peter Bernk, Hungary
\nBronze:<\/b> Andrey Shabasov, Russia<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unlike Kawecki, Daria Ustinova does not have a clear path to the win in the women\u2019s 200 back. She\u2019s the fastest European this year with a 2:08.02 from Russian nationals. That\u2019s a big improvement from the 2:09.08 she swam at the semifinals of worlds last year.<\/p>\n

Elizabeth Simmonds didn\u2019t swim up to expectations at the Commonwealth Games, but gets a second opportunity in Berlin to beat the 2:08.91 from a meet in Berlin earlier in the year. Simmonds likes to take the 200 back out hard and let the competition reel her in during the final stretch. One person who might do that is Katinka Hosszu, who will be looking to win a medal in this event among her 10-event schedule. Hosszu has the credentials in the 200 back with an appearance in the world championship final.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t count out Federica Pellegrini or Jenny Mensing for a medal, either. We could see five swimmers under 2:09 in the final, a respectable result from Europe.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s 200 backstroke medal predictions:
\nGold:<\/b> Daria Ustinova, Russia
\nSilver:<\/b> Katinka Hosszu, Hungary
\nBronze:<\/b> Elizabeth Simmonds, Great Britain\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
