13 күн бұрынDavid Popovici just BLASTED a 46.88 in the 100 free at the 2024 European Championships
That swim confirms one thing VERY clearly, David Popovici isn’t going ANYWHERE in this event

Whoa his last 50 is getting faster. Maybe he will get under 24 in Paris?
@TheSwimScribe 11 күн бұрын
What’s really crazy is he’s actually closed faster before. His 46.98 had a second 50 of 24.05, I believe it’s the fastest second 50 ever.

He's too young and fast to be counted out in Paris, though I'm not sure if indoor pools are an issue at all. (We'd have to compare all of his indoor-outdoor times.) But I am curious to know what caused the slight dip in his performances last year.
@ralucapache 11 күн бұрын
Studies maybe. He also enrolled at the University of Bucharest. As amazing as he is as an athelete, he is also incredibly inteligent. This year, due to Paris, he put his studies on hold.
@crisvb72 10 күн бұрын
Last year he prioritized his studies, as he took his high school final exam. He is a young man with very good results in education as well, not only in the swimming pool. The trainings were done among the hours dedicated to the study.

Can omit Ceasar Cielo and Alain Bernard from the list as they wore the cheat suit back then when creating the WR. These cheat suits have been banned already.

Those are not "cheat suites" and they were not cheating. The definition of cheating is when rules are broken. Those suites were legal, so no cheating happened. Yes, they gave an unfair advantage to them but everyone used those suites.
