he just learning how to swim that Foreigner and I am and
I think when she gets down to really getting that style,
she's gonna be very, very good. Joan is
Katie, Ledecky coming out and the gold medalist
in Rio, silver to orient it Miss in Tokyo in this race, but
back on top, took the world title last summer, in Budapest.
It Miss
Grace. At those worlds here in this race
Lane 1 Ballentine. Dumont
Belgium sixth in the 200 free, she'll be laying one Sierra
Schmidt
us Nationals finalists in this race. Last summer,
getting things grooving in Lane number two.
Jillian, Cox from long corn, Aquatics a seventeen-year-old
going to stay home and swim at Texas collegiately. She's in
Lane 3. Gold the junior pan packs in the 800 free and
bronze in this race for cocks.
There's Le dekhi
In over six seconds faster
than anybody else. In the Heats here in this race that includes
Katie Grimes, new personal best
and 200 fly for her
third win of the meat before.
Bella Sims her sandpipers have developed a teammate.
Then fourth fastest in the Heats
and a sensational need for her.
Aaron Campbell won the title with the US Open in this race.
Last supper and Irvine should be Lane seven.
Another chance and
forth through the 200. Flee winner of The 100 fly saw her
showcased earlier as well.
The Katie Grimes
they are in Zambia
Lane.
Number five, alongside kading. The deck,
a t-square, right next to each other again.
This one
is doubtful that we're going to have a race like we did earlier
in that 400 Im Just because this is Katie Ledecky. Grazed.
I mean, along with that. 800, obviously. But
she just has been so dominant for so long. Front might be
a little short for her actually,
more than 800 1500. 10K swimmer
didn't have quite the speed of
Katie and even Bella girl, Bella, Um, sir teammate which
is on the other side of her.
Tacky
and pulling out as expected to it Edge and his Rowdy touched
on Belva Sims
phenomenal meat for her
Olympian on that world championship team on that floor
by 200,
free relay Squad, snagged
Budapest.
She's a second behind the techie here, after that opening
hunt.
You know, I often wonder what
goes goes through the mind of Katie. Ledecky, in a meat like
this, we're in January. It's obviously a high caliber me.
We've got some of the best swimmers around the world here,
but for Caylee decade doing it so long. They see me
talking 11 years at this level. I
wonder
how she goes through the motions, what she thinks, and
we're thought process
has become normal. And it certainly is the case that win
in the 400 free last summer, in Budapest is she stretches her
lead
Over 2.3 seconds right now. In one of four World titles for
her, they are 19 Ruth Gold's now. 22, long course, world
Metals. It's the most by a female swimmer ever
pushing past another American Legend and Natalie Coughlin
only Michael Phelps with 33 and Ryan Lochte with 27 and
swimming medals in the history of the sport. And only Phelps
has more World Gold's than the deck. He's 19, he's got 26.
He's sick and Katie seems like she's primed for
a few more of those World Championships. You'd expect,
I don't think she'll ever or anybody will ever catch Michael
and his Olympic medals 28, total Olympic medals. But
I certainly do think that Katie definitely has a chance to be
the most prolific World Championship medalist. At some
point in her career, she's got 10 Olympic medal and the one
thing that she's real close on individual World titles, 14 for
her Phelps, has the most At 15 movies. Only
two away from passing like, bro, you gotta figure that
after dominating the 800 foot 11 years,
not losing that race for 11 years. She's probably got
a pretty good chance to continue that streak and now having
the 1500 added as an Olympic event, one gold, obviously in Tokyo
In the questions for her Rowdy. She starts to build for Paris.
How does she Fair here in this 400? Now, with the likes of
Tipnis who bested her in Tokyo, and summer McIntosh. The young
Canadian teenagers on the ride and does she keep the 200 free
as part of her
slate? Tough decisions to make? And
maybe that's one of the questions were going to ask her because
I have a feeling she's going to win this race for some reason.
Some wacky reason, Jason, I think she might just grab them.
The win here
and what she has done. So often getting
amazing separation from the rest of the competitors here.
And right now, it's by almost eight seconds, over sins and
crimes. They're in third and the Jackie charging her way
towards another Victory
here in the 400 free at the tier
Pro Swim series.
Katie, Ledecky,
burning towards the wall.
Just over four minutes here in the Wind.
It looks like Bella Sims will end up in second with Grimes,
coming hard to get in there for third out, touching Jillian,
Cox who's there and pulled
out a win by over eight and a half seconds for
the deck.
Yes making it look easy. Like she usually does out in 59 flat
159 at the at the halfway point. Back in 2001 flat
basically coming home
almost dipped under Four minutes, she's been under four minutes
more than any other swimmer in history
and there's
the look
of one. Great freestyle.
Tell me that isn't just
Amazing to look at every single time I never ever,
ever get bored of watching. Katie, Ledecky swim
When for it, Le dekhi
Sims there in s KT. Grimes third
Cox in fourth and Katie with another win here in Knoxville
joins us
Kitty. You learn anything from when you swim the 400, IM at
a meat like you did earlier and translating to other races that
help you
change anything. As far as race plan strategy.
I don't know about change anything, but I'm definitely
learning from every race. And it was fun to swim before. I am
here, just do something different and
I'm a distance swimmer. So I said, before I am and
it's good practice to just feel out of 400
like that as well.
You know, you've been doing this for so long now at
the highest level possible. Here we are in January so early season
on top of what Jason just said to you learnt, you still learn
things that you need to do. Or is it you just kind of go
through the motions in a race like this?
Oh, I never go through the mud.
It's always something to think about it,
each me. I'm just trying to be better and better and I feel
like I'm in pretty good shape right now and I'll just try to
build off of
January and move on a February
Katie. Thanks. Thank you.
He did ladakhi
always Grayson always learning and always usually
in front. Another win for let a key here in Tennessee.
