Australians Kyle Chalmers, Mitch Larkin and Emily Seebohm were impressive in the morning prelims at the 2016 FINA World Cup stop in Singapore. The World Cup is resuming for its third and final cluster after a week-and-a-half hiatus.
Chalmers put up a quick swim in his World Cup debut, leading the way in the men’s 100 free in 47.40, ahead of countrymen Tomasso D’Orsogna (48.09) and Brayden McCarthy (48.21). Russia’s Vladimir Morozov, who has won the event in each of the first six World Cup meets, qualified fifth in 48.29, and he figures to have a big challenge with the Olympic gold medalist in the event (Chalmers) on hand.
Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu (1:57.08) topped Aussies Carla Buchanan (1:57.21) and Madison Wilson (1:57.22) in the women’s 200 free. Hosszu also qualified second in the 100 fly in 57.83, just behind Canada’s Katerine Savard (57.60). Hosszu later qualified third in the 50 back in 27.27, well behind Seebohm (26.68) and Ukraine’s Daryna Zevina (26.82).
Hosszu was comfortably first in the women’s 200 IM in 2:11.23, and she then wrapped up a busy morning with a top-seeded time of 2:06.89 in the 200 back. Seebohm (2:07.20), Wilson (2:07.58), Zevina (2:07.62), Canada’s Hilary Caldwell (2:07.84) and China’s Wu Yixin (2:07.90) figure to make this a good race in the finals session.
