There were several swims across Europe that deserved attention this week, with Laszlo Cseh and Sarah Sjostrom both posting fast January times. But it was German Marco Koch, who unleashed one of the fastest men’s 200-meter breaststrokes of all time at the 2016 Luxembourg Euro Meet, who posted the most impressive performance of this past week.
Koch touched the wall in 2:07.69 to record the fastest January 200 breaststroke of all-time and 14th fastest overall. Koch also destroyed the previous fastest January 200 breaststroke, which he set last week in France with a 2:09.31. That time is actually slightly faster than his gold-medal performance at the World Championships last summer in Kazan, where he grabbed gold in 2:07.76 over U.S.A.’s Kevin Cordes and Hungary’s Daniel Gyurta. That is a ridiculously fast swim for January, and makes more of a case for Koch to be the favorite as we inch closer to the Rio Olympics.
Congratulations to Marco Koch on the Swimming World Performance of the Week!
