But Douglass has decided to relinquish that event and focus on her other two individual races &#8211; the 200 breaststroke and 200 individual medley. Douglass is also expected to be a key component on the United States&#8217; relays.<\/p>\n<p>By adding the 100 freestyle to her schedule, Walsh will have three individual events in Paris. She was already qualified in the 100 butterfly and 50 freestyle, which are scheduled for opposite ends of the Olympic program. The 100 freestyle will fit in the middle. Walsh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/gretchen-walsh-shatters-world-record-in-womens-100-butterfly-with-55-18\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">set a world record in the semifinals of the 100 fly<\/a>, which holds its prelims and semifinals on the first day of swimming competition. The final is slated for Day Two.<\/p>\n<p>Douglass and Walsh are former teammates at the University of Virginia, and continue to train together now that Douglass is a professional. They are expected to be part of the American 400 medley relay in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kate Douglass Bows Out of 100 Freestyle for Paris Olympics;
