2022 FINA SHORT COURSE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Day 5 Finals Heat Sheets

The fifth finals session of the 2022 SC World Champs in Melbourne will feature finals of the 4×50 medley relays, 400 IM, 800 free, and 50 free. There will also be semifinals of the 100 fly and 50 breast.

Jordan Crooks could make history tonight in the men’s 50 free final. Crooks clocked a 20.31 in semifinals last night, leading the field by a wide margin. His semifinals time was just 0.15 seconds off the World Record in the event, so it feels like Crooks could make a run at that mark tonight.

Similarly, the race between Emma McKeon and Katarzyna Wasick in the women’s 50 free final should be a thriller. Wasick has been phenomenal in the event all fall, while McKeon has already split 22.6 and 22.7 on relays at this meet.

Gregorio Paltrinieri won the men’s 1500 earlier in the meet and comes into the men’s 800 free as the top seed tonight.
