With many of the country\u2019s top Olympic swimmers sitting out the World Champs for one reason or another, the team was the thinnest Australia has taken to a major competition in years.<\/p>\n<p>Well now, <strong>Cate Campbell<\/strong> is back. So is <strong>Kyle<\/strong> <strong>Chalmers<\/strong>. <strong>Madeline<\/strong> <strong>Groves<\/strong>? We\u2019ll see. Seebohm and <strong>Emma McKeon<\/strong> never went anywhere, and neither did <strong>Mack Horton<\/strong>. The Australian men\u2019s relays, on the other hand, took a bit of a beating last summer in Budapest, with none making the podium.<\/p>\n<p>So where is this once-mighty swimming nation that has struggled to put it all together when it counts since a flop at the 2012 Olympics in London? We\u2019ll find out some answers this week as Swimming Australia selects its roster for the Commonwealth Games, scheduled for April 4-9 at the same Optus Aquatics Centre on the Gold Coast.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/australian-trials-psych-sheet-2018.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Check out the psych sheet for the Australian Trials.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a bit of what we\u2019re paying especially close attention to this week:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Cate Campbell and Kyle Chalmers return.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_217457\" style=\"width: 385px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-217457\" data-attachment-id=\"217457\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/morning-splash-17-female-swimmers-to-watch-in-2017\/cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio-e1564014291703.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1000,665\" 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=\"cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;12\/20\/19&lt;br \/&gt;\n1\/21\/18 &#038; 4\/7\/18&lt;br \/&gt;\n8\/10\/16 &#038; 3\/3\/17, 7\/17\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\ncate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Jack Gruber-USA TODAY Sports&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-217457\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio-e1482347436663.jpg\" alt=\"cate-campbell-100fr-semifinal-rio\" width=\"375\" height=\"249\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-217457\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cate Campbell &#8212; Photo Courtesy: Jack Gruber-USA TODAY Sports<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Both Campbell and Chalmers missed last summer\u2019s World Championships but for very different reasons: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/after-olympic-letdown-cate-campbell-finds-balance\/\" target=\"_blank\">Campbell needed a mental reset after a massive flop at the Rio Olympics<\/a>, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/heart-surgery-behind-him-aussie-olympian-kyle-chalmers-eyes-return\/\" target=\"_blank\">Chalmers was recovering from heart surgery<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And already this year, Campbell has posted some impressive efforts. At the New South Wales Championships in January, she swam a 52.37 in the 100 free, a time only three other women have ever surpassed and not far off her own national record of 52.06 from 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Campbell, of course, has a history of throwing down lightning-quick times and then faltering in the big moments\u2014like after she swam that 52.06, then a world record, one month before the Rio Olympics. No one came close to that time in Rio, and Campbell finished sixth in the 100 free final and then fifth in the 50 free.<\/p>\n<p>And then, in Campbell\u2019s absence, <strong>Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong> smashed that 100 free world record in Budapest. Campbell won\u2019t have a chance to race against the 24-year-old Swede in a major competition this year, but inching closer to that world record is undoubtedly her priority.<\/p>\n<p>As for Chalmers, his heart issues are fully resolved after surgery, but he has not raced much in the lead-up to Trials, and he dealt with a back injury that put his status for the 200 free in question. But anyone who watched the Olympics knows what Chalmers is capable of when he is fully healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, his 47.58 from Rio doesn\u2019t quite measure up to the insane 47.17 that <strong>Caeleb Dressel<\/strong> posted for gold at the World Championships, but it\u2019s faster than anyone else has swum in the last five years. And Chalmers, still 19, is a full two years younger than Dressel.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ariarne Titmus and Kaylee McKeown with star potential?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Two of the bright spots for Australia\u2019s women in Budapest were a pair of 16-year-olds,\u00a0<strong>Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> and <strong>Kaylee<\/strong> <strong>McKeown<\/strong>, each of whom finished fourth in an individual event.<\/p>\n<p>Titmus, who has since turned 17, was fourth behind <strong>Katie Ledecky<\/strong>, <strong>Leah Smith<\/strong> and <strong>Li Bingjie<\/strong> in the 400 free, and a few days later, she anchored Australia to bronze in the 4&#215;200 free relay. In December, Titmus broke Australia\u2019s national record in the 400 free, recording a time of 4:02.86, and she is also seeded first in the 800 free (8:23.08) and second in the 200 free (1:56.34) this week.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_269685\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-269685\" data-attachment-id=\"269685\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/kaylee-mckeown-claims-200-back-world-junior-record-finishes-fourth-in-finals\/kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs-e1560070397986.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1100,936\" 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=\"kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;10\/11\/18&lt;br \/&gt;\n1\/20\/18&lt;br \/&gt;\n7\/29\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\nkaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Swimming Australia Ltd. &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs-e1501344422777-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs-e1501344422777-1024x871.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-269685\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs-e1501344422777.jpg\" alt=\"kaylee-mckeown-australia-happy-2017-world-champs\" width=\"400\" height=\"340\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-269685\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kaylee McKeown &#8212; Photo Courtesy: Swimming Australia Ltd.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>McKeown, meanwhile, stormed home in the 200 back final to finish fourth behind her countrywoman Seebohm as well as <strong>Katinka Hosszu<\/strong> and <strong>Kathleen Baker.<\/strong> She posted a world junior record of 2:06.76 in the process. The next day, she swam the backstroke leg of Australia\u2019s 4&#215;100 medley relay in prelims, and she would end up with a silver medal. McKeown broke 1:00 for the first time in a 100 back in January.<\/p>\n<p>While there\u2019s still plenty of room for both of these young ladies to grow, Australian fans already have big hopes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Where art thou, Aussie men\u2019s relays?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In Budapest, the 4&#215;100 free team was disqualified, the 4&#215;200 finished fourth and the 4&#215;100 medley squad missed the final in ninth. Sprinter <strong>Cameron McEvoy<\/strong> and backstroker <strong>Mitch Larkin<\/strong> both dealt with disappointing meets all around, but most of the other relay pieces were international rookies.<\/p>\n<p>Well, not anymore. The likes of <strong>Alexander<\/strong> <strong>Graham<\/strong>, <strong>Jack<\/strong> <strong>Cartwright<\/strong>, <strong>Clyde<\/strong> <strong>Lewis<\/strong> and <strong>Zac Incerti<\/strong> all have one major championships under their belts, and while <strong>Elijah Winnington<\/strong> was not in Budapest, he did win a bronze in the 200 free at last year\u2019s World Junior Championships.<\/p>\n<p>What can those teenagers do? Well, Cartwright was a finalist in the 100 free in Budapest, swimming a 47.97 in the semi-finals, and Incerti split 48.28 on the 4&#215;100 free relay. Lewis and Winnington have both swum 1:46s in the 200 free flat start, and Graham and Cartwright posted impressive 1:46 relay splits last summer in Budapest.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing Earth-shattering there, but combined with Chalmers, McEvoy, a returning <strong>James Magnussen<\/strong> in the 100 free and distance man Horton in the 200 free, Australia\u2019s free relays should be competitive for Commonwealth gold in April and contend for medals at the next World Championships in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>As for the medley relay, 19-year-old breaststrokers <strong>Daniel<\/strong> <strong>Cave<\/strong>,<strong> Matthew Wilson<\/strong> and <strong>Zac Stubblety-Cook<\/strong> have all been 1:00 in the 100 breast, so there\u2019s promise on that leg, but medal contention will depend on Larkin returning to form and whether a reliable butterflyer emerges.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What\u2019s up with Madeline Groves?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Olympic silver medalist in the 200 fly,\u00a0Groves was another of the big-name Australian swimmers who sat out the 2017 international season. But while she is entered in this week\u2019s Trials, whether she actually competes is still up in the air.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_216986\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-216986\" data-attachment-id=\"216986\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/cate-campbell-and-kyle-chalmers-back-in-full-swing-for-2018-australian-trials\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1839,1206\" 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=\"groves-200fly-rio-prelims\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;5\/6\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\ngroves-200fly-rio-prelims&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\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims-1024x672.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-216986\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims.jpg\" alt=\"groves-200fly-rio-prelims\" width=\"400\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims.jpg 1839w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims-533x350.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims-280x184.jpg 280w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/groves-200fly-rio-prelims-1024x672.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-216986\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Madeline Groves &#8212; Photo Courtesy: Rob Schumacher-USA TODAY Sports<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Groves was faced with a potential anti-doping suspension after she missed three random drug tests, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/australias-madeline-groves-cleared-of-missed-doping-charge-eligible-to-compete\/\" target=\"_blank\">she ended up being cleared to compete in October<\/a> after FINA officials determined that her drug testers did not do enough to find her before what ended up being the third missed test.<\/p>\n<p>The appeal process to clear her name took an emotional toll on Groves, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au\/sport\/commonwealth-games\/commonwealth-games-rio-silver-medallist-madeline-groves-may-not-be-ready-for-swim-trials\/news-story\/d179632bd5b8a59f254dc1a267d7b509?nk=acdbdb153174e7eaa0fe241a42558446-1519769339\" target=\"_blank\">according to a report from the <em>Gold Coast Bulletin<\/em><\/a>, and she reportedly had surgery late last year to deal with endometriosis, the same condition which felled Seebohm before the 2016 Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Australia head coach Jacco Verharen told the <em>Bulletin<\/em>, \u201cI think with her we will see on the day,\u201d but that\u2019s still not a certainty.
