American\u00a0Zane Grothe\u00a0<\/strong>has had himself quite a week in Tokyo at the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships. Grothe set a huge best time in the 1500 on the first day, won bronze in the 400 free yesterday, and followed it up with another best time in the 800 on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Grothe swam a 7:43.74 to win the 800 free, lowering his best time from a 7:44.57. He also just missed the American Record of 7:43.60 from\u00a0Michael McBroom\u00a0<\/strong>at the 2013 World Championships.\u00a0Grothe had a big second half, negative splitting the race by almost four seconds. Grothe finished ahead of American teammate\u00a0Jordan Wilimovsky\u00a0<\/strong>(7:45.19) and Australia’s\u00a0Jack McLoughlin\u00a0<\/strong>(7:47.31).<\/p>\n

Grothe is now ranked second in the world in the 800 free, almost a rarity for American men’s distance swimming. Grothe’s time would have won silver at the European Championships last week, sitting only behind Ukraine’s\u00a0Mykhailo Romanchuk\u00a0<\/strong>(7:42.96).<\/p>\n

Grothe also sits 12th in the all-time rankings in this event, sitting behind McBroom and moving in front of Italian\u00a0Federico Colbertaldo\u00a0<\/strong>(7:43.84, 2009).<\/p>\n

Australia’s\u00a0Mack Horton\u00a0<\/strong>finished in fifth as he was never really on pace to challenge Grothe. Horton was fourth with a 7:53.43. Brazil’s\u00a0Guilherme Costa\u00a0<\/strong>was fourth at 7:51.67.<\/p>\n

Japan’s\u00a0Naito Ehara\u00a0<\/strong>(7:55.02) and\u00a0Shogo Takeda\u00a0<\/strong>(7:56.01) finished in sixth and seventh.Canada’s\u00a0Alex Pratt\u00a0<\/strong>(8:03.12) was eighth.<\/p>\n
