Pernille Blume\u00a0<\/strong>of Denmark has lead the women’s 50 freestyle since prelims. The 24.23 she posted then is the fifth best time in the world this year. Cate Campbell\u00a0<\/strong>holds the world’s fastest time this year, and the Australian will be sprinting for redemption, after being upset and finishing off the podium in the 100 freestyle earlier this week. Olympic record holder\u00a0Ranomi Kromowidjojo\u00a0<\/strong>of the Netherlands will also swim in a center lane tonight.<\/p>\n

Defending gold medalist\u00a0Sun Yang\u00a0<\/strong>of China did not make tonight’s final of the men’s 1500. That puts\u00a0Gregorio Paltrinieri\u00a0<\/strong>in the center lane. The Italian has swum the world leading time, a 14:34.04 which also puts him as the all time second fastest swimmer in the event.<\/p>\n

The United States enters as the heavy favorite in the women’s 4×100 medley relay after leading the prelims with an entirely different group than will race tonight. The Americans are flanked by the teams from Canada and Denmark.<\/p>\n

In the center of the men’s 4×100 medley relay will be the team from Great Britain.\u00a0Adam Peaty<\/strong>, the world record holder in the 100 breaststroke led his team through prelims. With an entirely new team swimming in finals than raced in prelims, the world record holding United States will look to defend gold.<\/p>\n
