Shortly before the official results showed that he just missed out on a place in the 100 backstroke final at the FINA world championships, David Plummer<\/strong> talked about rallying from a disappointing prelim swim to move up the ranks in the semifinal.<\/p>\n

Plummer had been getting over a stomach illness that he caught a few days before the meet, that had affected his swim in the morning heats. But Plummer said he looked at that race and devised a new tactic for the semifinal, particularly in his stroke rate.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter watching the video, (I saw that) my stroke rate was way too high,\u201d he said. \u201cThe goal was to try to keep that a little under control. I think I ended up slipping a little more than I wanted it to in the first half, but it seems like I made up for it all right coming home.\u201d<\/p>\n
