Aussie Sprint Stars Deliver Dazzling Swim GP Finale In A Perfect LA28 Warm Up <\/strong><\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s exciting brand of new age sprinters have strutted their stuff on a dazzling Swim GP stage in Melbourne overnight\u2013 with LA28 squarely in their sights.<\/p>\n

In front of an enthusiastic sell-out crowd at the Melbourne Sports And Aquatic Centre the 2026 breed of sprint demons, delivered in stunning fashion, revelling in an exciting brand of Teams-based racing.<\/p>\n

The swimmers loved it, the crowd loved it and it served up an appetite of what they can expect on a much bigger scale when swimming takes centre stage in front of 40,000 fans at Ingewood\u2019s SoFi 2028 Stadium.<\/p>\n

Led by Olympic silver medallist and world champion Meg Harris<\/strong> and Paris teammates Ben Armbruster, Flynn Southam<\/strong> and Alex Perkins<\/strong> \u2013 the new breed of Dolphins stars unleashed all their power and pace as the spectacular new Teams format sent fans into a frenzy of support on the final night of competition.<\/p>\n

Harris and Armbruster spearheading Team Wahoo to victory, Harris declaring: \u201c<\/strong>No one really knew what to expect coming into Swim GP.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe knew it was going to be some fast swimming and getting the fans involved but I think being part of history and Wahoo being the first team to win at something like this is incredible.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it’s definitely going to be something that is part of the future of swimming.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 18 months time [at the LA Olympics] we\u2019re going to be in front of a whole different crowd, in front of (the) Americans, and I think that\u2019s going to put a lot of pressure on us.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I think events like this, creating that atmosphere and having a huge crowd is great.\u201d<\/p>\n

Harris and Southam dominated the 50m Freestyle Skins Finals and Perkins and Armbruster the 50m Butterfly Skins Finals \u2013 while Armbruster and backstroking comeback queen Kaylee McKeown<\/strong> nailed the Championship Skins battle of the strokes finals.<\/p>\n

Butterfly specialists Perkins and Armbruster had shown their freestyle sprinting prowess \u2013 winning the 25m freestyle shoot-outs on night one.<\/p>\n

Their underwater skills displaying just what this new breed of sprinter is capable of as they put the final touches to their preparations for the World Short Course Championships, starting on December 1 in Beijing.<\/p>\n

The Skins testing the sprint and endurance qualifies in the gut-busting elimination rounds, polishing their skills, knowing that LA will showcase the first appearance of swimming\u2019s form strokes.<\/p>\n

Armbruster in his element saying: \u201cWe put a lot of time into our underwaters and it\u2019s great to put that into practice\u2026but the Skins does take it out of you\u2026my legs feel like they are about to fold out from under me.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut it\u2019s what we do from day-to-day\u2026so we\u2019re used to the pain.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was Armbruster who made the 50m freestyle semi-finals in Paris, who dead-heated with Kyle Chalmers<\/strong> to share Commonwealth Games gold in the 50m butterfly in Glasgow before winning the event at the Pan Pacs in Irvine.<\/p>\n

He relishes racing and has the all-round abilities to join world sprint king pin Cam McEvoy as the Dolphins build for their tilt at the Olympics not just for 2028 but their own home Games in Brisbane 2032.<\/p>\n

Southam summing up the Swim GP debut, saying the swimmers were so grateful to have so many kids and fans in the stands screaming out and cheering,<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like I\u2019m losing my voice from all the cheering. I\u2019ve had so much fun and I love the competition and just thriving on the crowd.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is really going to help us for LA28 having a big crowd and swimming for something bigger than yourself, it\u2019s awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n
