A Bit Delayed.

So far shocks include Jodie Henry failing to advance past the 50m and 100m freestyle heats!

Very little american turnout, post-olympics....making competition slightly meh.

no one is really tapered after having swam the olympics and some people dont bounce back aswell after having a long break. jodie henry particularly can only swim well at big meets cause of her program and just the nature of her body during hard training. swimmers like liesel jones can swim near their best alot more often cause their bodies are more resilient.
world cup meets usually only feature the home-country swimmers cause most parts of the world participate. its not all that exciting to watch unless you are a swimmer and know people swimming or are a die hard fan

IM a die hard fan

Final day was full of suprises!

Jade winning 50m (a nice thing to see), Matt Welsh winning 50 and 100 back was a shock and Libby winning 200 free was great news
