2021 PRO SWIM SERIES โ€“ INDIANAPOLIS (#4)

Reported by James Sutherland.

WOMENโ€™S 100 BREAST FINAL

  • PSS Record: 1:05.32,ย Lilly Kingย (USA), 2021
  1. Lilly Kingย (ISC), 1:05.47
  2. Emily Escobedoย (COND), 1:07.66
  3. Miranda Tuckerย (UN), 1:07.71

It was another dominant performance fromย Lilly Kingย in the womenโ€™s 100 breast, as the reigning Olympic and World Champion jumped out to a big early lead in 30.66 at the 50 before extending her advantage coming home, ultimately clocking a time of 1:05.47.

That showing is just shy of Kingโ€™s world-leading 1:05.32 set in late March.

Emily Escobedoย moved through the field with a strong back-half of 35.55, edgingย Miranda Tuckerย at the wall for second in 1:07.66. Escobedo set a season best of 1:07.11 in Richmond back in January. Tucker dipped under her season-best of 1:07.94 for third in 1:07.71.

No one is ever rested.

Well, to those who didn’t get a joke. Something to think about before prelim races start.

The same body, same type of mussels in both arms, same blood. Everything is the same and so different performance. The nerve signals are different. And all this comes from your brain. That is the main underappreciated organ of athlete’s body. There is no such a thing like “muscle memory” that the swimmer creates by swimming hundreds thousands miles. Muscle don’t have memory. The corresponding sequence of nerve impulses are stored in… Read more ยป
