This swim was one one hundredth faster than her entry time. <strong>Alys Thomas<\/strong>, who currently holds the eighteenth best time in the world in this event, finished second in\u00a0an extremely controlled 2:10.10.<\/p>\n<p>16-year-old <strong>Emily Large<\/strong> claimed the third seed in 2:11.31. Large was the top seed coming into the meet at 2:08.87 and split 29.25-33.91-33.78-34.37. All three women should be faster tonight in the hopes of breaking the top 10 (2:08.57) and nearing the automatic qualifying time for Budapest (2:06.52).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Laura Stephens<\/strong> (2:11.95), <strong>Hannah Miley<\/strong> (2:12.87), <strong>Keanna Macinnes<\/strong> (2:12.97), <strong>Holly Hibbott<\/strong> (2:13.11) and <strong>Isobel Grant<\/strong> (2:13.26) will round out the A final.<\/p>\n<p>Olympic Medalist Duncan Scott took top honors in the 100 freestyle, jumping from fourteenth to ninth in the world rankings. He raced to a 48.58 this morning, followed closely by <strong>Adam Barrett<\/strong> in 48.94. Only seven one hundredths separated the men at the 50, but Scott closed in 25.14 compared to Barrett&#8217;s 25.46.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jack Thorpe<\/strong> (49.44), <strong>Calum Jarvis<\/strong> (49.47) and <strong>Kieran McGuckin<\/strong> (48.92) were all also under 50 seconds. <strong>Nicholas Grainger<\/strong> (50.06) and <strong>Lewis Burras<\/strong> (50.08) took six and seventh, while <strong>Jarvis Parkinson<\/strong> and <strong>Yusuke Legard<\/strong> tied for eighth in 50.19.<\/p>\n<p>200 IM Rio Olympic Silver Medalist Siobhan-Marie O&#8217;Connor took to the 50 freestyle this morning, posting a 25.32. She was followed by <strong>Anna Hopkin<\/strong> (25.37), <strong>Lucy Hope<\/strong> (25.78), <strong>Katherine Stark<\/strong> (25.81), <strong>Harriet Cooper<\/strong> (25.93), <strong>Emily Crane<\/strong> and <strong>Victoria Cunningham<\/strong> (25.96) and<strong> Jessica Jackson<\/strong> (25.97).<\/p>\n<p>The team will be looking for someone to break the 25-second barrier tonight if they want to make any impact in this event. It would take a 24.84 to crack the worldwide top 10 and a 24.56 to be considered for Budapest.<\/p>\n<p>After placing fourth in his signature event in Rio, Max Litchfield was back in the 400 IM today with the top seed in 4:16.45. Litchfield came in with his 4:11.62 from Rio, which is the exact automatic qualifying time for World Championships. He was a 4:22.87\/4:15.84 in Indianapolis last month so this morning swim is a good indication that he will be faster than that tonight. He currently holds the tenth-fastest time in the world so far this year with his swim from Indy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Richard Nagy<\/strong> (4:19.05) and <strong>Joe Litchfield<\/strong> (4:19.15) joined Max Litchfield under 4:20. This was a cruise for Nagy and a three-second drop for Joe Litchfield. <strong>Mark Szaranek<\/strong> (4:21.12), <strong>Fraser Minnican<\/strong> (4:22.91), <strong>Brodie Williams<\/strong> (4:23.37), <strong>Thomas Dean<\/strong> (4:23.81) and <strong>Nathan Hughes<\/strong> (4:25.30) will also swim in the A final.<\/p>\n<p>In the men&#8217;s 1500 early heats, 18-year-old\u00a0<strong>Harrison Coulter<\/strong> swam away with the top spot in 15:37.66, an 18-second drop from his previous lifetime best. <strong>William Bell<\/strong> was a distant second in 15:59.93 followed by <strong>Jakob Goodman<\/strong> in 16:00.04.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight&#8217;s final will feature <strong>Stephen Milne<\/strong>, a Rio Olympian in this event, <strong>Daniel Jervis<\/strong>, <strong>Timothy Shuttleworth<\/strong>, <strong>Samuel Budd<\/strong>, <strong>Caleb Hughes<\/strong>, <strong>Tobias Robinson<\/strong>, <strong>Luke Turley<\/strong> and <strong>Tom Derbyshire<\/strong>.
