97/100 in 4 minutes. Struggled with Koch, Wellbrock & Franca Silva.
not too bad 99/100. Couldn’t remember who won 50breast in 2011.
Exact same here! Once I saw the name I instantly remembered his finish in that race
haha yes! He was actually quite close to the 100 title also but couldnt put together 3 great swims.
??? The winner of the 50 in 2011 didn’t even final in the 100
And the top 2 in the 100 were not very close.
Sprenger the Aussie finished by a great margin
Van Der Burgh
93/100. I could SEE the pics of Ning and Wellbock from their wikis in my head but couldn’t think of their names to save my life. I’d like to apologize to Chase Kalisz too
You’re not the only one who forgot about Chase Kalisz, also was the only American swimmer I missed
I forgot his spelling. Remembered him from looking at the us national team roster
It didn’t register UK, if s
89 for me. Camille Lacourt totally slipped my mind as I was trying to remember who the 50 back winners were over the decade.
33/100 I can’t spell
I always have trouble spelling Paltrinieri
98/100, couldn’t remember Daniel Gyurta because breaststroke isn’t a real stroke 🙁
I’m the same with backstroke. Only got Rylov and Lochte
