Just call me Chalmers considering how far behind I was at the halfway mark. 31st is by-far the best I’ve ever finished. And I can’t believe I was 3 points out of the daily prize on the last day!

It helps to know which swimmers are consistently good in big meets.

Kyle Chalmers, Kaylee, Titmus, Mollie O, Marchand, Kate Douglass are a few.

Grousset and Hafnaoui are two new names I’ve added to my list. I had them in the top 4 but not as winners.

Any others?

I think there’s an American female distance swimmer who is considered fairly reliable

Man the only thing I don’t like about this game is that the prizes are for North America only.
This game is so big, there are so many people participating from so many countries I’m sure swimswam is able to work something out to be able to give prizes for people playing from Europe or South America…at least the overall prize 🙏🏼

I wish I’d had a go at it. Not sure I’d have done that well, but it would have been fun.

He’s in Romanian jail. Browsing internet is the only thing he can do.

Think of the decent men with that name. It must be awful.
