After getting DQ’ed in the prelims of the 400 IM for illegal dolphin kicks in breaststroke at the 2023 US World Champ Trials, Weyant seemed to bounce back quickly. The next year, at the 2024 Olympic Trials, Weyant qualified for her second Olympic team in the 400 IM and went on to win her second Olympic medal, a bronze. However, it’s taken Weyant some time to feel confident enough to swim her normal breaststroke after the DQ.
In Ft Lauderdale at the recent Pro Swim, Weyant not only won the 400 IM, but did so in 4:33.95, the fastest she’s been in the event since 2022. Weyant seems to be in a good place heading into World Champ trials next month.
That’s the fastest Emma Weyant has been in the 400 IM since the Tokyo 2021 Olympics.
She was right on her best 400 free time too in Fort Lauderdale. She’s got a really solid shot of breaking Hoff’s AR this summer.
Let’s go Emma
Minus McIntosh, this has been a generally weak event internationally for years. I think the same can be said for women’s 200 fly and men’s 200 back
umm regan and zhang yufei have like the 3rd and 4th fastest times in history. the wr is just crazy.
Don’t know why this is getting so many downvotes, after 2016, the women’s 400 IM has been a bit weak. 2022 it took 4:36+ to medal at worlds, a time that wouldn’t even make the olympic team in 2020(1) or 2024
Not sure why people are downvoting you. The bronze medal time in Paris would not have medalled at an Olympics since 2004. For a medal time to not have medalled in 20 years is basically unheard of. I can’t think of any other event where that would be the case.
McIntosh and McKeown are the only sub 4:30 swimmers this decade. A 4:26 won in Rio lol.
maybe they are downvoting the 200 fly reference?
