World Champion Hunter Armstrong appeared to slip off of his start in heat 2 of the 100 back semi-finals tonight, noticeably coming up behind the pack. Armstrong confirmed this after the race, saying the camera on the block threw him off and his foot also slipped on the wedge.
The backstroke specialist was still able to finish 2nd in the heat, qualifying for tomorrow’s final. He’s hoping to clean up his start for tomorrow night’s final.
I hope Armstrong has a clean swim tonight
Its because of those fuck ass goggles
Has Hunter Armstrong ever had a fully clean 100 back? I feel every time he either has a bad start, bad turn, hits the lane line 10 times, or another issue.
Its gods plan.So I guess Hunter thinks that god sits up there watching swim trials.There are 195 countries in the world so thats a lot of watching swim trials.There are 95 swimmers in 100b in this trial alone.So Hunter figures God doesn’t give too much about the other swimmers in the trial but cares deeply about him.Hmmmmmmmm?
Your interpretation of the quote is too literal. God won’t help him get out of his sudden hardship. He had to do that himself. But Hunter takes comfort in knowing God has a safe plan for him in life.
all part of god’s mysterious plan, if McMahon getting busted for doping didn’t already convince you
That was seriously one of the most amazing comebacks I have ever seen.
The sexy Italian Ceccon is shaking in his boots.
Imagine that swim but with Murph’s start, bro would been 49.8
My mom is in love with Ceccon , she’s 70 . I don’t blame her though dude looks like Gregory peck and Clark gable in one guy
I said something similar after the race. Armstrong probably swam the fastest 90m of backstroke ever last night
I get that this is not just a swim meet, but a big show, and getting good video feeds is important, but at some point, the swimmers’ needs should take precedence over the needs of the television production crews. And personally, I don’t get much out of the camera angle that is right in the face of the backstrokers.
I agree 100 percent.
Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.
When a tv camera man got in Victor Davis’ face when we were behind the blocks before a breaststroke final at Canadian Nationals, he just grabbed the lens and shoved the guy out of his way. Point made. I was like, holy shht! He was the most intense and intimidating competitor I’ve ever met. Scary at meets but a very cool and friendly guy away from the pool.
