Now, the fast-finishing Penn swimmer is the heavy favorite, having captured bronze in the 200 breast at Worlds last year. Fallon will try to qualify for his first Olympic team, and he will put himself in the medal conversation again if he can approach or break the American record \u2014 2:07.01 set by <strong>Josh Prenot<\/strong> at the 2016 Trials.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Matheny<\/strong> was a World Championships finalist in this event last year, while <strong>Nic Fink<\/strong> was the Trials winner in this event in 2021, although Fink has gravitated further toward the 100 breast in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>This event will mark <strong>Jake Foster\u2019s<\/strong> best chance to get on the Olympic team by far. He owns a best time of 2:08.23, just ahead of Matheny\u2019s top mark of 2:08.32.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite:<\/strong> Matt Fallon<br \/>\n<strong>Contenders:<\/strong> Josh Matheny, Nic Fink, Jake Foster<br \/>\n<strong>Wild Cards:<\/strong> Will Licon, Charlie Swanson, Daniel Roy<br \/>\n<strong>Top 2 at 2021 Trials:<\/strong> Nic Fink 2:07.55, Andrew Wilson 2:08.32<br \/>\n<strong>World Record\/Splits:<\/strong> 2:05.48 Qin Haiyang, CHN (Fukuoka 7-28-23)<br \/>\n28.53 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1:00.72 (32.19) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1:33.36 (32.64) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong>2:05.48<\/strong> (32.12)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>MEN\u2019S 100 FREESTYLE<\/h2>\n<p>Defending Olympic champion <strong>Caeleb Dressel<\/strong> will try to stamp his ticket back to the Games in this event.
