WOMEN’S 50 FREE SKINS
ROUND 1:
1. Cate Campbell – LON – 23.46**
2. Sarah Sjostrom – ENS – 23.66**
3. Femke Heemskerk – ENS – 23.72**
4. Emma McKeon – LON – 23.87**
5. Kasia Wasick – CAC – 23.88
6. Beryl Gastaldello – LAC – 24.01
7. Olivia Smoliga – CAC – 24.08
8. Farida Osman – LAC – 24.45
**advance to semi-finals
With no Cali Condors into the second round, the finish order gets pretty well locked in. London and Energy Standard should get major boosts out of round 1. The top four are pretty loaded, too, and it was hard to project it breaking any other way, besides maybe Gastaldello making round 2.
ROUND 2:
1. Sarah Sjostrom – ENS – 23.98**
2. Cate Campbell – LON – 24.19**
3. Femke Heemskerk – ENS – 24.21
4. Emma McKeon – 24.48
**advance to finals
One each for Energy Standard and London into the final. It was the do-everything star Sjostrom and the pure sprinter Campbell into the final, though Sjostrom looks tough to beat after another 23. Either way, we’re happy to see a meaningful skins final – one not stacked with two teammates.
ROUND 3:
1. Sarah Sjostrom – ENS – 24.32
2. Cate Campbell – LON – 25.63
