2024 Australian Olympic Qualifiers
The Australian 2024 Olympic Trials are now on its penultimate night, and already, Australia's top athletes are setting world records and lifetime bests in the race to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic team.
The biggest takeaway from this morning was competing in the Olympics four times. Kate Campbell Having missed the A final of the women's 100m freestyle, the 32-year-old veteran may miss the women's 4x100m freestyle relay.
moreover, Sam ShortHaving already placed runner-up in the 400m and 800m freestyle, he withdrew from the 1500m freestyle due to a chronic stomach condition.
Among the athletes competing in the A final are former world record holders. Zach Stabley-Cook First, the men's 200m breaststroke will begin, followed by Jenna Strauch In female version.
Bradley Woodward and Joshua Edwards Smith The two will clash in the men's 200m backstroke, followed by a talented field in the women's 100m freestyle.
In the 1 free qualifying round this morning, four women, including the leader, were under the 53-second threshold. Meg Harris (52.52), Molly O'Callaghan (52.57), Shayna Jack (52.65) and Bronte Campbell (52.95).
Campbell's appearance is a good sign that key players are back in shape after recovering from the calf injury that sidelined him for most of the British Open in April.
