I saw this headline and thought “This must be SCM” but noooo!!! Wow. US men’s breaststroke medley relay issues looking a whole lot better! Bring on the backstrokers.
“Feet must turn outwards during the propulsive part of the kick” is going to need to be tweaked again thanks to Mathias. He is literally propelling with the bottom of his feet, but since his feet are pointed slightly outward it may actually be legal; at least that part… His massive downward fly kick on his break-out is clearly illegal.
I don’t know where you get his pullout being illegal. There’s an odd finish to his stroke kick but IMO nothing definitively illegal there either. I mean, Adam Peaty practically dolphins with his toes pointed out, and I wouldn’t say that is illegal.
What rank does King’s swim move him into in American history?
#13, behind Zach Apple (:47.69 — in 2019) and just ahead of Garrett Weber-Gale (:47.78 — 2008).
