just seen she did her split in 51.93 in Women's 4x100m Freestyle Relay and the WR is 52.07 set in 31 Jul 2009. very impressive or is she on the juice considering her best time for 2012.
best time for 2012 for 100 Free
Ranomi Kromowidjojo - NED 52.75
Sarah Sjostrom - SWE 53.29
Francesca Halsall - GBR 53.57
Britta Steffen GER - 53.65
Yi Tang - CHN 53.71
Melanie Schlanger - AUS 53.74

she looked good this evening in 100m doing 53.05 in olympic record. looks as though she took it easy and will get very close to 52.7
was just listening to a technical discussion on the design of the pool which has a major impact on race times
width
depth
temperature of water
lane separation devices/floats
all have a big impact on wave generation and dissipation... less waves = fast times
apparently they got this pool spot on its a
"fast pool"

where were you listening to that? genuinely interested to know who said that because the other night ian thorpe told gabby logan on the highlights show that there's no such thing as a fast pool and they are all the same
was a bunch of swimmers on 5Live
Ian thorpe does not know what he is talking about - change the width, depth and temperature and you will different amounts of waviness... and that is what makes the difference

yes that was it
that's why there are 10 lanes, so the waves travel further before they get chance to interfere with swimmers, they have specially designed lane markers that dampen waves too... all makes sense

I suspect Thorpedo has never studied fluid mechanics.
