Men’s 100 Free Semi-Finals:<\/h3>\n
After a rough heat swim this morning which landed him as the sixteenth seed in semi-finals, the USA’s\u00a0Nathan Adrian<\/strong>\u00a0has redeemed himself by claiming the fastest time of the evening in the men’s 100 free. Adrian stopped the clock at a 47.83 from lane eight of heat one.<\/p>\nThe Aussie duo of\u00a0Kyle Chalmers\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Cameron McEvoy\u00a0<\/strong>picked up the second and third place seeds from separate heats. Chalmers snuck his hand in ahead of Canada’s\u00a0Santo Condorelli\u00a0<\/strong>in heat two to stop the clock at a 47.88, while McEvoy posted a 47.93 from heat one. Condorelli delivered a matching 47.93 from heat two.<\/p>\nCaeleb Dressel<\/strong>\u00a0of the USA will return tomorrow night as the fifth place seed with a 47.97.<\/p>\nBelgium’s\u00a0Pieter Timmers<\/strong>\u00a0picked up the sixth place seed with a 48.14, while Great Britain’s\u00a0Duncan Scott\u00a0<\/strong>was seventh with a 48.20.<\/p>\nBrazil’s\u00a0Marcelo Chierighini<\/strong>\u00a0rounds out the top eight with a 48.23.<\/p>\nWomen’s 200 Free:<\/h3>\n
A loaded field of women entered the pool deck for finals of the women’s 200 free.\u00a0Katie Ledecky<\/strong>\u00a0of the USA,\u00a0Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong>\u00a0of Sweden, and\u00a0Emma McKeon<\/strong>\u00a0of Australia battled from the very beginning for victory. Ledecky made her move on the third length powering ahead of the competition and fending off Sjostrom, stopping the clock at a swift 1:53.73. Ledecky’s gold medal moves her to two thirds of a sweep of the 200-400-800 freestyles, a feat that hasn’t been done since\u00a0Debbie Meyer<\/strong>\u00a0did it in 1968.<\/p>\nDespite gaining on Ledecky, Sjostrom was unable to catch her and settled for the silver with a time of 1:54.08.<\/p>\n
Australia’s McKeon moved up from one of the outside lanes to claim the bronze with a time of 1:54.92.<\/p>\n
World record holder\u00a0Federica Pellegrini<\/strong>\u00a0of Italy finished in fourth, just outside of the podium, with a time of 1:55.18.<\/p>\nChina’s\u00a0Shen Duo<\/strong>\u00a0and Australia’s\u00a0Bronte Barratt\u00a0<\/strong>finished right on Pellegrini’s\u00a0feet with matching times of 1:55.25.<\/p>\nSweden’s\u00a0Michelle Coleman\u00a0<\/strong>picked up seventh with a time of 1:56.27, just ahead of France’s\u00a0Charlotte Bonnet\u00a0<\/strong>(1:56.29).<\/p>\nMen’s 200 Fly:<\/h3>\n
Tonight’s much anticipated men’s 200 butterfly final was as eventful as anticipated.<\/p>\n
Laszlo Cseh\u00a0<\/strong>of Hungary\u00a0led at the 50 meter mark. The USA’s\u00a0Michael Phelps\u00a0<\/strong>took control at the halfway point and continued to pull away in the third 50 meters. Phelps took a short stroke into the third turn and\u00a0Chad Le Clos\u00a0<\/strong>of South Africa\u00a0had an incredible third under water to start to close the gap.<\/p>\nIn the final 30 meters\u00a0Masato Sakai<\/strong>\u00a0of Japan snuck up on the outside as le Clos faded.<\/p>\nThe Greatest of All Time held on, and became the oldest swimmer to win gold in an individual event, touching in 1:53.36. Sakai almost completed what would have been a historic upset, finishing just .03 behind in 1:53.40. That finish became the smallest margin of victory in this race in Olympic history.<\/p>\n
Tama Kenderesi\u00a0<\/strong>of Hungary posted the fastest times in prelims and semifinals. He earned bronze tonight with his 1:53.62.<\/p>\nLe Clos wound up fourth, finishing in 1:54.06.<\/p>\n
Daiya Seto\u00a0<\/strong>of Japan took fifth with his 1:54.82. Denmark’s\u00a0Viktor Bromer\u00a0<\/strong>snagged sixth in 1:55.64. Cseh settled for seventh in 1:56.24. Belgium’s\u00a0Louis Croenen\u00a0<\/strong>completed the final in 1:57.04.<\/p>\nWomen’s 200 Fly Semi-Finals:<\/h3>\n
Australia’s\u00a0Madeline Groves<\/strong>\u00a0turned up the heat in semi-finals of the women’s 200 fly posting the first sub-2:06 of the event. Groves touched in a 2:05.66 to return as the top seed tomorrow for finals.<\/p>\nMireia Belmonte<\/strong>\u00a0of Spain slipped to second in the rankings with a 2:06.06 finish from heat two of the semi-finals, while China’s\u00a0Zhou Yilin\u00a0<\/strong>posted a lifetime best of 2:06.52.<\/p>\nJapan’s\u00a0Natsumi Hoshi<\/strong>\u00a0posted a 2:06.74 to return as the fourth place seed, just ahead of China’s\u00a0Zhang Yufei’s\u00a0<\/strong>2:06.95.<\/p>\nHali Flickinger<\/strong>\u00a0of the USA put forth a valiant effort in heat two to catch Groves but could not, earning herself the sixth place seed with a 2:07.02.<\/p>\nAustralia’s\u00a0Brianna Throssell<\/strong>\u00a0(2:07.19) and USA’s\u00a0Cammile Adams\u00a0<\/strong>(2:07.22) round out the top eight qualifiers.<\/p>\nMen’s 200 Breast Semi-Finals:<\/h3>\n
Japan’s\u00a0Ippei Watanabe<\/strong>\u00a0jumped to an early lead in heat one of the men’s 200 breaststroke semi-finals, not letting up until his hands touched the wall in Olympic Record fashion. Watanabe touched the wall in a 2:07.22 to take down the existing record of 2:07.28 set in 2012 by Hungary’s\u00a0Daniel Gyurta<\/strong>.<\/p>\nGreat Britain’s\u00a0Andrew Willis<\/strong>\u00a0and the USA’s\u00a0Kevin Cordes\u00a0<\/strong>battled the World Record line and each other throughout heat two but at the end it was Willis who got his hand to the wall first. Willis stopped the clock at \u00a0a 2:07.73 ahead of Cordes’ 2:07.99 (good for fifth).<\/p>\nJosh Prenot<\/strong>\u00a0of the USA picked up the third place seed with a time of 2:07.78, just ahead of Japan’s\u00a0Yasuhiro Koseki’s\u00a0<\/strong>2:07.91.<\/p>\nTop-ranked swimmer coming into semi-finals,\u00a0Anton Chupkov\u00a0<\/strong>of Russia, slipped to sixth in the rankings with a 2:08.08, just ahead of Germany’s\u00a0Marco Koch<\/strong>\u00a0(2:08.12).<\/p>\nKazakhstan’s\u00a0Dmitriy Balandin<\/strong>\u00a0picked up the eighth place seed with a 2:08.20.<\/p>\nWomen’s 200 IM FINAL:<\/h3>\n
Hungary’s\u00a0Katinka Hosszu<\/strong>\u00a0picked up her third individual gold medal of the Olympics, lowering her own Olympic Record from a 2:07.45 to a 2:06.58. Hosszu was under her own World Record pace throughout the first half of the race but Great Britain’s\u00a0Siobhan-Marie O’Connor<\/strong>\u00a0held on and pushed her, refusing to let the “Iron Lady” out of her sight.<\/p>\nO’Connor gained ground in the final 50 of the race but was unable to get past Hosszu, settling for silver, a 2:06.88, and a new national record for Great Britain.<\/p>\n
Silver medalist in the 400 IM,\u00a0Maya DiRado<\/strong>\u00a0of the USA, picked up the bronze medal with a final time of 2:08.79, finishing just ahead of American teammate\u00a0Melanie Margalis\u00a0<\/strong>(2:09.21).<\/p>\nAustralia’s\u00a0Alicia Coutts\u00a0<\/strong>finished fifth overall with a 2:10.88, while Canada’s\u00a0Sydney Pickrem<\/strong>\u00a0picked up sixth with a 2:11.22.<\/p>\nAndreeva Viktoriia\u00a0<\/strong>of Russia was seventh with a time of 2:12.28 and defending gold medalist, Ye Shiwen<\/strong>\u00a0of China, finished eighth with a 2:13.56.<\/p>\nMen’s 800 Free Relay Final:<\/h3>\n
The men’s 800 free relay final was highlighted by a tough battle for second with the USA jumping to the lead after a strong first leg by\u00a0Conor Dwyer\u00a0<\/strong>(1:45.23). Young Texan\u00a0Townley Haas<\/strong>\u00a0solidified the USA’s lead with a dynamic 1:44.14 split before handing off to veterans\u00a0Ryan Lochte\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0(1:46.03) and\u00a0Michael Phelps<\/strong>\u00a0(1:45.26). The quad posted a combined time of 7:00.26 for first and Phelps’ 21st Olympic gold medal.<\/p>\nThe battle for second was highlighted by the men of Japan and Great Britain, with Japan holding second for much of the race. A strong anchor leg, however, by Great Britain’s\u00a0James Guy<\/strong>\u00a0boosted the Brits up and ahead of the Japanese for the silver medal. The relay team of\u00a0Stephen Milne<\/strong>\u00a0(1:46.97),\u00a0Duncan Scott\u00a0<\/strong>(1:45.05),\u00a0Dan Wallace\u00a0<\/strong>(1:46.26), and Guy (1:44.85) posted a combined time of 7:03.13.<\/p>\nPosting an awfully close third was the Japanese team of\u00a0Kosuke Hagino\u00a0<\/strong>(1:45.34),\u00a0Naito Ehara<\/strong>\u00a0(1:46.11),\u00a0Yuki Kobori\u00a0<\/strong>(1:45.71), and\u00a0Takeshi Matsuda\u00a0<\/strong>(1:46.34) with a final time of 7:03.50.<\/p>\nAustralia finished fourth overall with a 7:04.18, ahead of the Russian Federation’s 7:05.70.<\/p>\n
Germany (7:07.28), The Netherlands (7:09.10), and Belgium (7:11.64) rounded out the top eight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
