The women’s skins had left the team battle at 444 for Roar and 442.5 for Energy. The men’s skins, Manaudou’s second-place, left Energy ahead.<\/p>\n

$\"Ranomi$

Team Iron’s Ranomi Kromowidjojo won the 50 free Skins competition once more.<\/p><\/div>\n

Womens’ Skins – 50m free<\/h3>\n
\n
Showdown:<\/em> Sarah Sjostrom called it right: short-course, Ranomi is “impressive”. The most impressive. Ranomi Kromowidjojo<\/strong> emerged from the dive head and shoulders up on Sjostrom and the great battle that followed race was all but done in terms of who would win.<\/li>\n
24.17 for the Iron sprinter, 24.46 for Energy’s all-round ace. For Kromowidjojo, the win made her the queen of skins as the winningest woman over 3×50 free of League Season 1.<\/li>\n
Round 2<\/em> – Sjostrom, 23.95; Kromowidjojo, 24.19<\/strong>. Mckeon and Sanchez leave the stage.<\/li>\n
Round 1:<\/strong><\/em> Sjostrom (Energy) 23.57; Kromowidjojo (Iron), 23.69; McKeon (Roar), 23.70; Sanchez (Energy), 23.71<\/strong>. Cate Campbell (Roar), 5th and gone… the start is where that happened.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Chad Le Clos – MPV<\/h2>\n
Last-lap surge. Chad Le Clos<\/strong>, London 2012. Michael Phelps. Olympic gold ahead of the G.O.A.T.<\/p>\n
Not quite the same this day of short-course 200m butterfly seven years on but under the League lights in the same pool in London, in the same lane 5 in which he made his name the stuff of household, Le Clos surged down the last lap with a huge drive off the wall on his way to a powerful 1:51.97 victory for Energy.<\/p>\n
More on Le Clos later.<\/em> For now, his thoughts on a fine evening back in London seven years on:<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a really emotional night for me because I had my dad in the crowd, my family.\u00a0I had the same emotions walking out hearing the crowd because it was very loud tonight. It brought out a similar race: I was touching behind at the 150. I just closed my eyes, bit my tongue and counted to 10. I came off the last wall thankfully ahead and put my head down.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was almost like a magic night because if that was any other pool I would probably have lost that race.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was holding back the tears walking out because it brings back such special memories because the call room is the same and I remember all those sensations of walking out, Phelps was behind me, walking through and seeing the crowd. It was really beautiful.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Energy and London Roar were split by just 14 points after the first day of action at the London Aquatic Centre. All eyes on the roll of the dice, the double-score relays and the triple-points skins during the decider this evening.<\/p>\n

And what of Adam Peaty<\/strong>? Fourth in the 50m breaststroke yesterday – and a run of 100m victories unbroken since 2014 at staked today. The verdict is in: Olympic champion Peaty, 56.18 for top-score to Roar, drew level with\u00a0Ilya Shymanovich<\/strong> in the closing 10m of battle, and snatched victory with his last stroke. The Energy ace clocked 56.32, third place going to his mate national and League Anton Chupkov<\/strong>, World 200m champion, on 57.18.<\/p>\n
Peaty finished second yo Chupkov over 200m yesterday.\u00a0He said: \u201cDon\u2019t get me started on the 50: short-course for me is difficult at times but when I am in hard training I lose my legs.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s good for the sport and its good for me and it keeps me on my toes. Every time I lose I come back even faster so I will use as a fuel now and use that to hopefully polish up into Vegas seeing as we have made it now.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The Olympic 100m breaststroke champion also featured in the mixed 4x100m freestyle \u2013 all about being a team member, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is what it is. ISL isn\u2019t an individual sport: it s a team sport so I stepped up when I needed to step up and got the job done as well as I could.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>If <strong>Florent Manaudou<\/strong> and<strong> Vladimir Morozov<\/strong>\u00a0were expected to scrap for breath and honour in the men’s freestyle skins, the women’s 50 fight promised keen insight into the art of racing three two short-course laps within six minutes. Expectation and promise were delivered this evening.<\/p>\n<p>Kromowidjojo has been the outstanding act in skins this season.\u00a0The double Dutch Olympic sprint champion in this very pool back in 2012 when she claimed 50m and 100m free gold, has defeated\u00a0Roar’s <strong>Cate Campbell <\/strong>in skins even though the\u00a0Australianhas been the sprint queen of the season so far among women in solo events. Three back-to-back 50s is something else.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong>, the 50 and 100m world-record holder racing for Energy, has her eye on the prize today but takes nothing for granted. She told <em><strong>Swimming World<\/strong><\/em>:\u00a0“I love watching the skins. Ranomi was great. She can use her starts and turns so well. I was impressed with how she did and also [Beryl] Gastaldello and how she came through the rounds.\u00a0If I compare the times, they swim much faster than me in skins.”<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_396974\" style=\"width: 293px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-396974\" data-attachment-id=\"396974\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/sjostrom-le-clos-drive-energy-standard-to-tight-win-over-london-roar-both-teams-go-to-vegas-showdown\/sarah-sjostrom-28\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/sarah-sjostrom-ISL-Indy-2019-2365.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1600,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"2.8","credit":"Peter H.

I was not race ready.\u00a0I will be sharper here.\u00a0It was the first time in a very long time that I took three years off; after the world championships, three weeks in which I never touched the pool. I’d never done that before.\u00a0It takes time to build back up and now I’m\u00a0in a really good place and I feel like I’m going to be much faster here.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She recognised the need to be: “I need to be because it will be even tougher in my events here: it’s like a world champs in my events her.”<\/p>\n<p>Asked how she felt as fatigue set in during the six minutes of repeat sprints, she said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>“It’s quite weird because I don’t feel too bad until I dive in the water. The best would be for me to have less rest in between: it’s like I build more lactate the more rest I get. So, a little shorter rest would help. I have a 200m base but short-course is ten times harder \u00a0in some respects.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She added: In long-course, no-one would beat me in skins – but short-course is a tough act. You need to turn and use your legs and the dives count for much. In long course I can swim really fast without using my legs too much. Short-course is a much bigger challenge.”<\/p>\n<p>And the challenge is all about her, as the first race proved, as she finished third in the 100m free, Cate Campbell and Emma Mckeon ahead of her.<\/p>\n<h2>Live Action:<\/h2>\n<p><i>Contemporaneous notes of the action as it\u00a0unfolded (latest news at the top), with Race Videos and\u00a0interviews added<\/i><\/p>\n<h3>Mens’ skins – 50 m free<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>Showdown:<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<strong>Vlad Morozov<\/strong> is king of skins: 21.78 to 22.25 for Manaudou<\/li>\n<li><em><strong>Round 2<\/strong> <\/em>– It’s <strong>Manaudou Vs Morozov, 21.94 to 22.01<\/strong>.
