Peaty\u2019s time of 57.47 was the second-best mark in history, just three tenths off his world record of 57.13 from the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>After becoming\u00a0the first man to ever break 57 in 2015 and then twice breaking the world record on his way to Olympic gold, Peaty was not the least bit disappointed that he was a little bit short of his best in Budapest. In his long-term quest to crack 57 seconds, this race was a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cI\u2019m still 1.5 seconds ahead of the rest of the world. I\u2019m very happy with that,\u201d Peaty said. \u201cIt\u2019s not the time\u2014it\u2019s the way I did it. It\u2019s the 26.5 that looks promising to me. Not many people can go out in 26.5 and come back. Nobody but me has been under 26.6 in the 50. The way I swam it is very encouraging for the future.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Then came the 50 fly. Proud arrived in Budapest seeded third in the event, and he qualified\u00a0fourth for\u00a0the final, 0.16 behind top seed <strong>Caeleb Dressel<\/strong>. But when Dressel made a mistake on his breath, Proud took advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Proud touched out Nicholas Santos, 22.75 to 22.79. <strong>Andrii<\/strong> <strong>Govorov<\/strong>, Dressel and <strong>Joseph Schooling<\/strong> were all within two tenths. But the touch had gone the way of the Brit.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cIt took me a while to realize I\u2019d won. I was shocked at first but it\u2019s a dream come true,\u201d Proud said of the win. \u201cIt\u2019s something I have dreamed off ever since I started swimming. It\u2019s the reason I did start swimming. It\u2019s the reason I moved to the UK. For it to happen today was amazing.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cI was never going to give up on that dream, I was going to keep going until my mid-30s, until I was the 50 fly World champion, so for it to happen at my third World Champs, it\u2019s a true blessing.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As for the 200 free, Guy was a consensus pick for a medal, but Scott? His 100 free has recently been stellar\u2014earlier this year, he became the first British man to crack 48 seconds, and he arrived in Budapest ranked No. 1 in the world in that event\u2014but Scott insists that the 200 has always be<span style=\"color: #000000;\">en his forte.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cI\u2019ve always been a 200 swimmer,\u201d Scott said. \u201cI had that (100 free) individual swim in Rio last year, so that became slightly more of the focus. In 2014, I broke onto that Scottish team, and in 2015 in Kazan, it\u2019s always been the 200 free in that perspective of things, and that\u2019s what I train for, so I\u2019m delighted that it\u2019s come through.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, that British one-two punch will take on the first final of day three with a chance at two medals and perhaps even another gold\u2014and\u00a0yes, that would mean three consecutive men\u2019s races with a Brit standing atop the podium.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_235811\" style=\"width: 385px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-235811\" data-attachment-id=\"235811\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/morning-splash-17-male-swimmers-watch-2017\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-e1483556826200.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"984,675\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"duncan-scott-100-free-rio\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;4\/15\/18&lt;br \/&gt;\n7\/24\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\nduncan-scott-100-free-rio&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Rob Schumacher-USA TODAY Sports&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-1024x703.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-235811\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-e1483556826200.jpg\" alt=\"duncan-scott-100-free-rio\" width=\"375\" height=\"257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-e1483556826200.jpg 984w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/duncan-scott-100-free-rio-e1483556826200-533x366.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-235811\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Duncan Scott &#8212; Photo Courtesy: Rob Schumacher-USA TODAY Sports<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And the medal chances don\u2019t dry up after that. Peaty will return to the water for the 50 breast over the next two days, and he is the overwhelming gold-medal favorite in that. Scott will be a medal threat in the 100 free as well, and Proud is still ranked No. 1 in the world this year in the 50 free.<\/p>\n<p>The British men\u2019s 800 free relay upset the U.S. men two years ago in Kazan and certainly could do so\u00a0again in Budapest with Guy and Scott firing on all cylinders and the American mid-distance freestylers, aside from <strong>Townley<\/strong> <strong>Haas<\/strong>, struggling through the first two days of the meet.<\/p>\n<p>Both the men\u2019s and mixed medley relays will be serious medal threats. For the mixed relay, Peaty will\u00a0handle the breaststroke leg, while Scott swims the free and <strong>Siobhan-Marie O\u2019Connor<\/strong> the fly, and\u00a0<strong>Kathleen Dawson<\/strong> looks like a weapon on the backstroke leg after she qualified for the final in the women\u2019s 100 back.<\/p>\n<p>The men\u2019s medley relay will suffer from the lack of a quality backstroker\u2014Britain did not even enter a man in the individual 100 back\u2014but Peaty\u2019s breaststroke dominance could put the team into the lead at the halfway point, and Guy can provide a strong fly leg to give Scott a chance on the anchor.<\/p>\n<p>This British men\u2019s team is not blessed with much depth beyond its stars, but it was clear even before the meet that it had the quality pieces to make a major impact on the medal table in Budapest. That came to fruition on day two, and plenty of chances remain to carry that momentum over\u00a0the six more days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By David Rieder.
