Tokyo Olympic Predictions: Day Seven Sees Trifecta For Katie Ledecky in 800 Freestyle<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the seventh day of finals at the Olympic Games in Tokyo<\/a> gets underway, one of the feature events will be the men’s 100-meter butterfly, where American Caeleb Dressel<\/strong> will chase his world record of 49.50 and try to fend off Hungarian star Kristof Milak<\/strong>. More, the United States’ Katie Ledecky<\/strong> will chase her third consecutive title in the 800 freestyle. Here is who Swimming World picked for medals on Day Seven. Picks were made prior to the start of the Olympics.<\/p>\n

Editor\u2019s Note:<\/strong> Tokyo is 13 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time (e.g., New York) and 16 hours ahead of Pacific Daylight Time (e.g., Los Angeles). This year\u2019s Olympic finals (and semifinals) will be swum at Tokyo in the morning, with prelims swum the previous evening. So, for a finals session beginning at 10:30 a.m. Japan Standard Time on Saturday morning, July 31, that would be 9:30 p.m. EDT (6:30 p.m. PDT) on Friday evening, July 30.<\/p>\n

Day Seven Finals<\/h2>\n

Saturday, July 31
\n(10:30 a.m. – 12:20 p.m. Japan Standard Time)<\/p>\n

Men’s 100 Butterfly<\/h3>\n

World Record:<\/strong> Caeleb Dressel, USA – Gwangju 7-26-19 – 49.50
\n2016 Olympic Champion:<\/strong> Joseph Schooling, Singapore – 50.39<\/p>\n

When Caeleb Dressel<\/strong> climbs atop the blocks for the final of the 100 butterfly in Tokyo, his race is expected to be with the clock, not the field. The American enters the Games with five of the six-fastest performances in history, and an effort in the 49-low range is expected, with a push for sub-49 not out of the question. The two-time defending world champion was as fast as 49.76 at the U.S. Trials.<\/p>\n

If anyone is capable of giving Dressel a scare, it is Hungarian ace Kristof Milak<\/strong>, who is the overwhelming favorite for Olympic gold in the 200 butterfly. Milak is the European champion in the 100 fly and 200 fly and has been 50-low in the shorter distance, but he must deliver a major improvement to enter the realm of Dressel.<\/p>\n

Among the contenders for the bronze medal are Russia\u2019s Andrei Minakov<\/strong>, the silver medalist at the 2019 World Championships, and South African veteran Chad le Clos<\/strong>. Australia\u2019s Matt Temple<\/strong> set a Commonwealth record of 50.45 at the Aussie Trials, but replicating that effort might prove difficult in a short timeframe.<\/p>\n

Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold:<\/strong> Caeleb Dressel, USA
\nSilver:<\/strong> Kristof Milak, Hungary
\nBronze:<\/strong> Andrei Minakov, Russia<\/p>\n

Women’s 200 Backstroke<\/h3>\n

World Record:<\/strong> Regan Smith, USA – Gwangju 7-26-19 – 2:03.35
\n2016 Olympic Champion:<\/strong> Maya DiRado, USA – 2:05.99<\/p>\n

Get ready to hear this remarkable reality a lot: The world record holder in the women\u2019s 200 back is in Tokyo, but not swimming the event. That was the shock of the U.S. Olympic Trials when Regan Smith<\/strong> found herself in third place behind Rhyan White<\/strong> and Phoebe Bacon<\/strong>. Despite the fact that Smith\u2019s best time is more than two-and-a-half seconds ahead of what it took to win gold in Rio, she won\u2019t be in the pool to chase it.<\/p>\n

Only Smith has broken 2:04. Only she and Kaylee McKeown<\/strong> have cracked 2:05.5 in the last two years. That shifts the favorite\u2019s target directly to the Australian, who travels to Tokyo with a newly minted 100 back world record.<\/p>\n

Kylie Masse<\/strong> showed well at the Canadian Trials, with training in that country disturbed more than most by the COVID-19 pandemic. The two Americans will contend, as will Italian Margherita Panziera<\/strong> off a strong spring. And veteran Emily Seebohm<\/strong> should never be discounted.<\/p>\n

Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold:<\/strong> Kaylee McKeown, Australia
\nSilver:<\/strong> Kylie Masse, Canada
\nBronze:<\/strong> Rhyan White, USA<\/p>\n

Women’s 800 Freestyle<\/h3>\n

World Record and 2016 Olympic Champion:<\/strong> Katie Ledecky, USA – Rio de Janeiro 8-12-16 – 8:04.79<\/p>\n

Katie Ledecky<\/strong> set the world record in the last Olympic Games in the women\u2019s 800 free and easily won her race at the U.S. Olympic Trials. If Ledecky can top the field in Tokyo, it will be her third consecutive title in the event, and will make Ledecky just the fourth swimmer to win the same event at three straight Games.<\/p>\n

\"QUADARELLA

Ledecky, who has the top time in the world this year at 8:14.62, will be the favorite again, but Italian Simona Quadarella<\/strong> is a threat with others standing in her way. Australia\u2019s Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> and Kiah Melverton<\/strong> have the second- and third-fastest times in the world this year at 8:15.57 and 8:19.05, with Quadarella (8:20.23) and upstart U.S. 15-year-old Katie Grimes<\/strong> (8:20.36) close behind.<\/p>\n

Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold:<\/strong> Katie Ledecky, USA
\nSilver:<\/strong> Ariarne Titmus, Australia
\nBronze:<\/strong> Simona Quadarella, Italy<\/p>\n

Mixed 400 Medley Relay<\/h3>\n

World Record:<\/strong> China (Xu Jiayu, Yan Zibei, Zhang Yufei, Yang Junxuan) – Qingdao 10-1-20 – 3:38.41
\n2016 Olympic Champion:<\/strong> Olympic debut<\/p>\n

After making its debut at the 2015 World Championships, the mixed 4×100 medley relay is set to make its Olympic debut in Tokyo. What makes this race so exciting are the strategies involved in determining which two legs will be swum by the women and which two by the men.<\/p>\n

On paper, the favorites look to be the three medalists from the 2019 Worlds: Australia (gold), the United States (silver) and Great Britain (bronze), as all three teams have at least one world record holder. But Team USA has three (Ryan Murphy<\/strong>, Lilly King<\/strong> and Caeleb Dressel<\/strong>). Great Britain boasts one (Adam Peaty<\/strong>), while Australia also has one (Kaylee McKeown<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

China holds the world record<\/a> in this event as the only global mark set in 2020, but they\u2019ll need a perfect race to be able to compete with the three World Championships medalists from 2019.<\/p>\n

Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold:<\/strong> United States
\nSilver:<\/strong> Great Britain
\nBronze:<\/strong> Australia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
