:01:03. > :01:07.But pretty much every day this week, he has set a new world record and
:01:08. > :01:11.taken a new world title but, but, you know what, Adam Peaty isn't the
:01:12. > :01:19.only one going for gold this evening. Here's what's coming up.
:01:20. > :01:26.Will Duncan slam dunk and into the final? We've got Georgia on our
:01:27. > :01:30.mind, she's in the 50 metres backstroke. On course for another
:01:31. > :01:39.world record, blink and you'll miss him, Adam Peaty. And can he take it
:01:40. > :01:44.to the max? Record-breaking Max Litchfield goes in the 200 metres
:01:45. > :01:49.individual medley. He is certainly a special talent, but how much is this
:01:50. > :01:53.a special time in British swimming? It's a great time. It's one of those
:01:54. > :01:57.decades you get a lot of people at the same time, and we seem to have
:01:58. > :02:02.such strength in depth in the British team at the moment. The men
:02:03. > :02:06.have been dominating this meet. In the past, we have had the likes of
:02:07. > :02:12.Becky and Joe, but the men at the moment are really leading the way.
:02:13. > :02:16.The Hungarian crowd are going crazy, because there are some of the
:02:17. > :02:19.biggest Hungarian talent in the pool this evening, but all British eyes
:02:20. > :02:25.are on Adam Peaty. We'll talk a lot about him. A word first on the
:02:26. > :02:29.women's 200 metres freestyle. This is one of the main races I'm looking
:02:30. > :02:35.forward to. It's going to be so close. I really hope she can get her
:02:36. > :02:42.fourth gold medal tonight. Over to your commentators, Andy and Steve,
:02:43. > :02:50.to take us through the women's 200 metres freestyle final.
:02:51. > :03:02.What a final bid is! Katinka Hosszu goes in two for Hungary. Katie P of
:03:03. > :03:06.the USO, the most successful female swimmer in World Championship
:03:07. > :03:09.history. She has already won 12 gold medals she is only 20.
:03:10. > :03:14.Extraordinary. Somebody is going to challenge her, Stephen Parry sitting
:03:15. > :03:20.with me, Olympic bronze-medallist, it could be Federico Ricca linguine.
:03:21. > :03:30.She has won more medals at this venue costs -- then you can stake a
:03:31. > :03:42.-- shake a stick at. The Russian, 26, she is in good form.
:03:43. > :03:52.She won silver 100 metres fly. If she is, Katie Ledecki, 12 World
:03:53. > :03:59.Championship medals. This is the 200. If she can win this in the 800,
:04:00. > :04:11.she'll be the first woman in history. It's mind-boggling what she
:04:12. > :04:18.can do. She is the most successful female individual other. A lot of
:04:19. > :04:24.people have been talking about her physique and how much beef she has
:04:25. > :04:32.put on Updike, and how she has done that generate more power and she's
:04:33. > :04:35.going to need it you need a strategy in this event, and you will see the
:04:36. > :04:46.Australian, McKeown, taking it out. Pellegrini, the world record-holder,
:04:47. > :05:03.is in two. Ledecki Bin Laden two. A bit of confusion at the start.
:05:04. > :05:07.Should be a whistle and everybody stand by their blocks and, at the
:05:08. > :05:10.second whistle, they get up on the back of the blocks, but a couple
:05:11. > :05:15.swimmers got up slightly early. We are getting the announcer telling
:05:16. > :05:22.the audience to keep quite every time a Hungarian gets on the blocks.
:05:23. > :05:32.It's very loud in here. The final of the women's 200 metres freestyle.
:05:33. > :05:39.Ledecky, very good start, as usual. She qualified fastest for this final
:05:40. > :05:48.straight after the 1500 metres freestyle that she's won yesterday.
:05:49. > :05:53.McKeown, in the yellow hat, she took it out almost too fast yesterday.
:05:54. > :05:57.She went to 70 metres blisteringly quick, but she seems to have held
:05:58. > :06:04.back a bit, although she is still leading. She is half a second on
:06:05. > :06:11.double -- underworld record pace. Ledecky is right on her hip. Ledecky
:06:12. > :06:17.will have the stamina. She is right there on the four and the 800, so
:06:18. > :06:22.she has the pace. This will play into the hands of the swimmers
:06:23. > :06:30.either side of Emma McKeown. McKeown leading at the halfway turn. Ledecky
:06:31. > :06:38.starting in four. McKeown first, Ledecky second. In three, Katinka
:06:39. > :06:44.Hosszu of Hungary, but the big guys having a sense of occasion.
:06:45. > :06:48.Pellegrini to the right of those leaders, and that's interesting. She
:06:49. > :06:52.comes back fast on the last 50, but she's got an awful lot of work to
:06:53. > :07:00.do. Maybe about a metre behind. Ledecky leading slightly maybe. This
:07:01. > :07:05.is an absolute ding-dong, coming down this final leg. McKeown just
:07:06. > :07:08.won't quit. She was there last year in the Olympics and she looks
:07:09. > :07:18.sensational. And Pellegrini coming into the mix. A great race.
:07:19. > :07:21.Pellegrini is coming back very fast. The black hat Pellegrini. She is the
:07:22. > :07:27.world record holder, and I think she's going to beat Ledecky. She has
:07:28. > :07:35.got the gold! What a massive shock! She has beaten the greatest World
:07:36. > :07:38.Championship medallist in history, Katie Ledecky, and that's a big
:07:39. > :07:47.shock for me. It could be the shock of the championships. Gold has gone
:07:48. > :07:53.to Pellegrini, silver to Ledecky and bronze to McKeown of Australia. I
:07:54. > :07:58.didn't expect that! It just goes to show, Katie Ledecky, she is human
:07:59. > :08:03.after all. This girl hasn't lost in four years, and look what it means.
:08:04. > :08:08.She isn't the Queen of middle distance swimming any more, Katie
:08:09. > :08:16.Ledecky. Pellegrini has shown her, at the age of 28, that she can be
:08:17. > :08:20.beaten. She has a weak spot. The timing of that was extraordinary,
:08:21. > :08:27.because Pellegrini was about a metre down with about 55 to go. In the
:08:28. > :08:34.last turn, McKeown was really be stalking horse, the pace setter, but
:08:35. > :08:40.coming down this last 50, Steve, goodness me, she came from close to
:08:41. > :08:43.nowhere. She really was rolling back the years, and she took the girls
:08:44. > :08:49.apart over those last 20 metres. What a brilliant tactical plan that
:08:50. > :08:56.was from Pellegrini. She didn't get called into the cat and mouse game
:08:57. > :08:58.debt in the first 50. She can't believe it, can she? -- down the
:08:59. > :09:04.first 50. The Italian superstar rolling back the years. Pellegrini
:09:05. > :09:12.was World Championship silver-medallist 12 years ago in
:09:13. > :09:20.this event. 12 years ago! Aged 16. She has come back at age 28, taking
:09:21. > :09:25.gold. Oh, my word! What a surprise! I didn't think I'd read this out.
:09:26. > :09:31.Pellegrini of Italy is the world champion in the 200 metres
:09:32. > :09:37.freestyle. Katie Ledecky has silver, Emma McKeown for bronze.
:09:38. > :09:40.Fair play to Pellegrini! That was a heck of a swing. She's been around
:09:41. > :09:46.for so long. You seem a bit angry, because you love Ledecky, but you
:09:47. > :09:53.love an underdog. I'm not angry at all! It always causes an upset, this
:09:54. > :09:57.one. Fair play to Pellegrini, because she's been a medallist in
:09:58. > :10:00.that event since 2005 World Championships. She is such a credit.
:10:01. > :10:06.I would have put my house on Ledecky winning. I think the entire pool put
:10:07. > :10:12.their money on Ledecky going into that rates. That is the beauty of
:10:13. > :10:19.seeing an upset. Last year, totally unbeatable, and now we have seen her
:10:20. > :10:26.beaten. The semifinal swim Katie Ledecky, after her 1500, that would
:10:27. > :10:30.have won that. She either needs to swim a 1500 beforehand.
:10:31. > :10:39.It wasn't hard enough for her, was it? The last 25, we said it would
:10:40. > :10:44.deliver and dictate. To be fair, Ledecky doesn't have another speed.
:10:45. > :10:50.She's got one speed. And Pellegrini has a turn of speed. Pellegrini and
:10:51. > :10:53.McKeown are better, home and swimmers. Normally they have been
:10:54. > :11:00.blown away bye-bye that point. Ledecky doesn't have the extra speed
:11:01. > :11:06.at the moment. We know that she can go faster, and probably a change of
:11:07. > :11:12.coach and this year being at university has been a bit like
:11:13. > :11:16.change. We've got the men's 100 free semifinals now. Duncan Scott came
:11:17. > :11:19.into this competition the fastest in the world we are interested to see
:11:20. > :11:25.if that is put some pressure on him. Let's take a look. It's a great
:11:26. > :11:28.opportunity and a great chance. The year after the Olympics. Most years
:11:29. > :11:32.after Olympics are slightly slower, some would say, and you can back
:11:33. > :11:37.that up as well. With the times they've been -- I've been going this
:11:38. > :11:43.year, I don't think that Budapest will be much slower, to be honest.
:11:44. > :11:46.It's another great chance to race internationally. I've only ever
:11:47. > :11:55.raced internationally once at an Olympics. For me, it's still
:11:56. > :11:58.relatively new. I'm not sure... And I've got the 203. I'm looking
:11:59. > :12:04.forward to it. There are chances in those events. -- the 200 freestyle.
:12:05. > :12:09.I'm just looking forward to going out and racing. Duncan Scott goes in
:12:10. > :12:12.the first semifinal for Great Britain, and he'll have to be speedy
:12:13. > :12:18.because the second one is pretty stacked.
:12:19. > :12:26.The first semifinal of the men's 100 metres freestyle. There is a big
:12:27. > :12:31.chap in Leiden four, Mehdy Metella of France. He looked very good this
:12:32. > :12:37.morning. And here he is, Mehdy Metella. I was talking to the French
:12:38. > :12:41.commentators and they were picking him up, possibly because he seems to
:12:42. > :12:45.be the only Frenchman here. I think they've got a team of about eight or
:12:46. > :12:50.nine, very unusual, and they haven't turned up at all in the pool. The
:12:51. > :12:55.French really are in the doldrums at the moment. Half of their superstars
:12:56. > :13:03.are next door in the commentary box. They could do with some of them back
:13:04. > :13:06.in the water, I think. That's Mehdy Metella, and Jack Cartwright, 18
:13:07. > :13:12.years old. He is going next to Duncan Scott. What a season, the
:13:13. > :13:17.fastest guy in the world, coming into this meet. He needs to show
:13:18. > :13:22.some of that class at this race, getting through to the final
:13:23. > :13:30.tomorrow night. A very big second semifinal line-up. These guys have
:13:31. > :13:38.got to move. First semi, men's 100 metres freestyle. Duncan Scott in
:13:39. > :13:43.six. Scott got away reasonably well, probably his sixth best start. Very
:13:44. > :13:48.good start in the centre for the Frenchman in lane four. Mehdy
:13:49. > :13:55.Metella is super down this first 50. I'd like to see Duncan Scott start
:13:56. > :13:58.to drop the hammer. He's got to bring it home on the second 50. He's
:13:59. > :14:03.more than capable of doing that on the 200 freestyle. It was really
:14:04. > :14:07.strong during the week. Look at him starting to work his way back in.
:14:08. > :14:15.He's taken Jack Cartwright in lane five. Mehdy Metella has about 50
:14:16. > :14:20.metres to go. Duncan Scott starting to come back. He still got work to
:14:21. > :14:28.do, but this is good. Straight arms from Mehdy Metella down the last 15
:14:29. > :14:33.metres. 47 .60 five. The fringe guys said they thought he could go 47.6,
:14:34. > :14:38.and he has done it. A massive lifetime bets. Duncan Scott in
:14:39. > :14:47.third, 48.1. That be good enough. The top two, Metella and Cartwright.
:14:48. > :14:53.Duncan Scott, 48.1. There is a strong second semi to come. The
:14:54. > :15:00.18-year-old, well, he's only made it in because Kyle shamus, the Lib Peck
:15:01. > :15:05.champion from Australia, is out with heart surgery. -- the Olympic
:15:06. > :15:09.champion. A beautiful start for him. He came off about half a metre
:15:10. > :15:15.ahead. Duncan Scott looked powerful. Let's concentrate on Metella. A
:15:16. > :15:19.great finish from him. Just getting that hand on the wall. He's got to
:15:20. > :15:27.be one of the favourites tomorrow. Half a second PB, on the 100
:15:28. > :15:29.freestyle. That's unheard-of. He won the first semi by a third of a
:15:30. > :15:38.second. It is about time, so in theory, he
:15:39. > :15:49.could be be in danger from the second semi, I think he will be OK.
:15:50. > :15:54.Big second semi, can McVoy in four, and I think, Sharron Davies talking
:15:55. > :15:57.to Duncan Scot. Duncan, a good swim there, probably
:15:58. > :16:05.good enough to get you through to the final. Here is hoping. Yes,
:16:06. > :16:09.happy with that. It has been a tough couple of day, it is going to be a
:16:10. > :16:14.dog fight tomorrow. Tell me about the thinking behind the windmill
:16:15. > :16:20.stroke at the end. Still trying to master it. Trying to keep my stroke
:16:21. > :16:24.long at the end of the race. Maybe try and touch out, I don't know if
:16:25. > :16:30.it works yet. Am still trying to learn. They are all tall big guys.
:16:31. > :16:35.When you stand next to them. They are bigger, but your strength to
:16:36. > :16:45.weight ratio is good. Definitely. Definitely. Yes, I think that helps
:16:46. > :16:54.to my advantage, in the last 25 metres, I was starting to hurt. I
:16:55. > :17:02.used it to my advantage. See you tomorrow. There is Nathan
:17:03. > :17:13.Adrian. He is only fastest qualifiers. Olympic champion in
:17:14. > :17:18.London. There is the Japanese Shioura. This chap led off the
:17:19. > :17:22.American relay 47.2. An unbelievable swim that was. You watch his start.
:17:23. > :17:27.We will look at that in a second. Obviously.
:17:28. > :17:32.Not right now, but we will look at it in a minute. Dressel's starts are
:17:33. > :17:36.phenomenal. This guy is an enigma, he is a brilliant sprint freestyler
:17:37. > :17:39.and he just doesn't seem to win the golds, he keeps turning up as the
:17:40. > :17:44.favourite, Steve, what is the deal with this guy? You are right, Andy,
:17:45. > :17:48.it is clearly a mental issue for him, because I mean, he has a
:17:49. > :17:54.beautiful stroke, it is so smooth, it is almost the model of efficiency
:17:55. > :17:59.if you watch him swim. He was sub 48 morning but it will be interesting
:18:00. > :18:04.to see, if McVoy, if he can progress through the rounds or if he will
:18:05. > :18:08.struggle as he can do. But for me, I think the race is going to be
:18:09. > :18:12.centred round lane five. The American, there he is Nathan Adrian
:18:13. > :18:15.there, they were messing round this morning. Dressel and Adrian, they
:18:16. > :18:20.were taking the mickey, and just watch this guy. There is Nathan
:18:21. > :18:24.Adrian there, but the guy next to him, Caleb Dressel in five, fastest
:18:25. > :18:31.start in the world at the moment. There he is.
:18:32. > :18:40.He will be so quick off the blocks. Second semifinal of the men's
:18:41. > :18:44.100-metre freestyle. Look at the start from Dressel. Look
:18:45. > :18:48.at that start from Dressel. Oh my word. Stop the race there and he
:18:49. > :18:54.must be 0.3 of a second ahead. Extraordinary. This easy are the
:18:55. > :18:59.best swimmers in the world. McVoy in the centre. They are a massive
:19:00. > :19:03.disadvantage. Just because of Dressel's start. He means business
:19:04. > :19:07.here, doesn't he. A few fly leg kicks off the wall. Look at the
:19:08. > :19:10.skills there to ten metres, he has worked that but Nathan Adrian has
:19:11. > :19:14.been an Olympic champion before, he is not messing about. Can McVoy
:19:15. > :19:19.stick with him? You will see three world class times here Andy. This is
:19:20. > :19:22.a very quick semi, and Nathan Adrian coming back very quickly in six.
:19:23. > :19:32.Looks good. Dressel in five, aid yap in six. Look-a-likes it is Dressel.
:19:33. > :19:39.It is, 47.66. And the good news for Great Britain and Duncan Scot is he
:19:40. > :19:50.is into the final. He will be about fifth or sixth. S like it is
:19:51. > :19:53.Dressel. It is, 47.66. And the good news for Great Britain and Duncan
:19:54. > :19:56.Scot is he is into the final. He will be about fifth or sixth. Nathan
:19:57. > :19:59.Adrian looked good. 47.. They have done the job. What about their start
:20:00. > :20:04.from Dressel. You are looking at the best sprinters in the world. They
:20:05. > :20:09.cannot hang with the guy. He is not that much quicker off the blocks but
:20:10. > :20:12.his underwater work is phenomenal. He has taken half a metre out of the
:20:13. > :20:18.rest of the field on the start. I mean, that is, it is phenomenal. He
:20:19. > :20:23.is swimming slower than these two other guys, it is just he is getting
:20:24. > :20:26.so much off that start, it is fantastic. I think they might have
:20:27. > :20:31.been holding back slightly at the end. I think may have more to give.
:20:32. > :20:36.Dressel led off in 47.2. Are you still thinking that? He has had a
:20:37. > :20:40.tough week. He has raced a lot there is a question mark over Dressel for
:20:41. > :20:45.me. I won't be popular but he was capable of winning that 50 metres
:20:46. > :20:50.butterfly against Ben Proud, for me, he didn't do it when it mattered
:20:51. > :20:53.most. Well, a quick second semifinal.
:20:54. > :20:58.Dressel winning it. McVoy third, they could be the three medallists,
:20:59. > :21:02.let us hope Duncan Scot has something to do with that. The
:21:03. > :21:05.qualifiers for the final. I think Duncan Scot is in fifth or sixth,
:21:06. > :21:12.something like that. Let us have a look. Sixth. That is great news for
:21:13. > :21:14.Great Britain. Metella goes in fastest. What a final that is going
:21:15. > :21:22.to be tomorrow night. Wow.
:21:23. > :21:25.Great newses for Duncan Scot going into the final against some big
:21:26. > :21:30.names and muscles and talentment what do you make of what he said to
:21:31. > :21:34.Sharon, about how you know, I am still learning about this. I think
:21:35. > :21:37.he S like you look at someone like Nathan Adrian, way more experienced
:21:38. > :21:42.than Duncan is, he does similar to what Nathan Adrian does, the last
:21:43. > :21:46.five metre, almost like a windmill stroke, straight arm. He still has
:21:47. > :21:51.to play round with that. This is his debut scene really. Yes he was in
:21:52. > :21:58.Rio but he has stepped it up this year, he has got a lot. Who is going
:21:59. > :22:03.to take it? I would say just, because his underwater is so good
:22:04. > :22:07.Dressel. He tightened up a lot. That can come to a final. That is where
:22:08. > :22:12.Adrian has the experience. What Duncan makes up for a lot is he is
:22:13. > :22:17.so slight. He is tiny, he will get muscle on and catch them up. We will
:22:18. > :22:20.see Great Britain's Georgia Davis in the pool twice, later on in the
:22:21. > :22:28.relay, first she goes in the semifinals of the 50-metre
:22:29. > :22:33.backstroke. Let us hear from her. Rio had like ups and downs for me,
:22:34. > :22:38.as a team it was literally the most fantastic team to be part of, with
:22:39. > :22:44.so much success, to come away with a personal best time at an Olympic
:22:45. > :22:48.Games which I am told only a small percentage do, I was chuffed. I
:22:49. > :22:53.showed me the training has paid off. I kind of clicks how I want to swim
:22:54. > :22:59.my race and pacing and things like that, it has come together for me,
:23:00. > :23:03.which is quite exciting. Doing lifetime best times and I am loving
:23:04. > :23:11.what I am doing. I get to travel the world with some pretty cool people.
:23:12. > :23:16.Georgia Davis goes in the first of the two semifinals. Good luck
:23:17. > :23:21.Georgia. Georgia Davies will be in lane five,
:23:22. > :23:29.the Commonwealth champion next to Emily Seebohm in six. The
:23:30. > :23:33.Commonwealth record holder. Aliaksandra Herasimenia is in four.
:23:34. > :23:42.This is a very interesting field. The fastest this year is Wang, of
:23:43. > :23:46.China. She is in lane three. China have four of the five fastest women
:23:47. > :23:52.in the world, on 50 backstroke this year. I don't think it is exactly
:23:53. > :23:59.bald statement that we can predict gold here for China. Emily Seebohm
:24:00. > :24:08.there. She is, she has some speed, it is her first semifinal here.
:24:09. > :24:11.Women's 50-metre back. Georgia Davies in the black cap of Great
:24:12. > :24:15.Britain. So one length backstroke.
:24:16. > :24:18.Semifinal of the women's 50 metres backstroke at the World
:24:19. > :24:24.Championship, there was only six tenths of a second that split the
:24:25. > :24:26.field after the heats this morning. Georgia Davies started quite slowly,
:24:27. > :24:30.relatively. And came through in the second half. She looks good at the
:24:31. > :24:35.moment. She needs to have a good last ten year. Georgia Davies in the
:24:36. > :24:41.black hat, in the centre, she is going well. Needs a good tough. Look
:24:42. > :24:45.at that. She has won it. 27.49. That is very good. Good. It is just
:24:46. > :24:50.outside the Commonwealth record, another British record for her, that
:24:51. > :24:54.is very very good swimming indeed. Two one Hunts of a second outside
:24:55. > :24:58.the Commonwealth record, winning the first semifinal. Very very
:24:59. > :25:02.impressive indeed. Andy, great skills there look, her
:25:03. > :25:05.finish was fantastic, the way she got her hand on wall. She didn't
:25:06. > :25:09.look like winning it with threat metres to go. Had a fantastic finish
:25:10. > :25:12.and the exciting thing about that time, is that that will put her
:25:13. > :25:18.right in the mix for medals if she the repeat that tomorrow night.
:25:19. > :25:25.Fantastic start there. There is Seebohm, she started well. Georgia
:25:26. > :25:28.Davies, 15 metres to go. You could throw a blanket over the middle
:25:29. > :25:33.four. It is about spotting the finish. Make sure you get your arms
:25:34. > :25:39.on the wall and she did. Touch that pad a bit harder than Seebohm. It is
:25:40. > :25:43.almost synchronised swimming. Well, that was an outstanding swim. That
:25:44. > :25:47.second half really very good indeed. A great smile as well.
:25:48. > :25:51.So confirmation of the result of that first semifinal of the women's
:25:52. > :25:57.backstroke, great news for Great Britain. Georgia Davies winning it.
:25:58. > :26:04.27.49. New British record. Seebohm second. Herasimenia third.
:26:05. > :26:09.And Georgia Davies talking to Sharon now.
:26:10. > :26:13.Georgia congratulations, British record and so close to the
:26:14. > :26:16.Commonwealth record. I have to say I have been watching you swim for
:26:17. > :26:21.year, you look the best I have seen you today. Thank you. It is nice to
:26:22. > :26:26.be able to come back in few days after a bit of disappointment and
:26:27. > :26:32.turn things round and that is a personal best time, which I have not
:26:33. > :26:36.done since Glasgow in 2014, so, I have wanted a best time for a while
:26:37. > :26:40.now. I am pleased to get it here. You mentioned you still love the 50,
:26:41. > :26:45.you are in love with this event. It is a lot of fast arms going and you
:26:46. > :26:50.took the scalp of a couple of girls who are well-known for their fast
:26:51. > :26:56.50s. The depth here is incredible, so, I knew especially being in the
:26:57. > :27:00.first semifinal, you can't leave anything behind, because especially
:27:01. > :27:04.after the 100, when the second semifinal was so fast and then I
:27:05. > :27:09.missed out, I just wanted to go in and swim as fast as I could, hope
:27:10. > :27:12.flip buck myself up in the final tonight, and well I hope that is
:27:13. > :27:15.good enough. It should be I think. I am sure you will. We have been
:27:16. > :27:24.keeping our fingers crossed. Good luck. Thank you.
:27:25. > :27:27.Second semifinal of the women's 50m Backstroke, one stacked gold and
:27:28. > :27:33.silver two years ago in four and five and the gold and silver in
:27:34. > :27:39.lanes one an two. What a semifinal this is. Fu of China though, fastest
:27:40. > :27:45.in the world this year, 27.2. The time she set in the heats this
:27:46. > :27:48.morning. Georgia Davies just went 27.4. That
:27:49. > :27:53.is the second fastest time in the world this year, very quick. What a
:27:54. > :27:56.great swim from Georgia. I fear tomorrow night in the final there be
:27:57. > :28:00.a couple of tenths of a second separating the whole field. If you
:28:01. > :28:05.think about the distance Adam Peaty wins his 50s in, it brings it into
:28:06. > :28:12.perspective, but Fu here, going in lane four. She will be hard to beat.
:28:13. > :28:16.Maybe Masse can do it. She is the gold medallist from the 100 metres
:28:17. > :28:23.backstroke, he has struggled with her speed. There is Wang of China.
:28:24. > :28:27.The world's fastest 50 metres backstroke, the defending World
:28:28. > :28:32.Champion. There is only 13th on the individual 100 back here, a big
:28:33. > :28:38.surprise really. She can be fastest in the world on 50 back by 0. 3 of a
:28:39. > :28:44.second and only come 13th on the 100. Very urn usual.
:28:45. > :28:47.-- unusual. Second semifinal of the women's 50m Backstroke. Fu of China
:28:48. > :29:01.right in the centre. So Georgia Davies already thrown
:29:02. > :29:06.down sub 27.5 in the first semi. Here we have Fu, a poor start in
:29:07. > :29:13.lane six. That is a shocker from Stevens. But Fu going well. Medeiros
:29:14. > :29:19.of Brazil going well. Fu in four. Medeiros in five. Fu a bit bouncy,
:29:20. > :29:23.not looking as good is a she did in the heats. Medeiros stretching a
:29:24. > :29:30.long way out but she got the touch, 27.18. That is the fastest in the
:29:31. > :29:37.world this year. 27.18 wins it for Medeiros, 27.19 for Fu. That is
:29:38. > :29:46.going to be a massive final, Baker also just beating Great Britain's
:29:47. > :29:50.Georgia Davies, 27.48. Georgia has to go fourth fastest in that final.
:29:51. > :29:56.Great chance of a medal. What a swim. 27.18 for Medeiros. You are
:29:57. > :29:59.starting to think that they can threaten the 27 barrier, a tenth of
:30:00. > :30:04.a second they were off the world record. That is just finger-tip
:30:05. > :30:08.stuff there. Fu is not happy there. In the centre
:30:09. > :30:14.of screen there, she isn't used to getting beat. A bit bouncy Fu there.
:30:15. > :30:18.She was. You don't want to be wasting your time going up and down.
:30:19. > :30:21.You want to get your arm on the wall. Look what it mean, they have
:30:22. > :30:23.won this three of the last four times China. That dominance could be
:30:24. > :30:34.threatened tomorrow night. Three of the last four golds in the
:30:35. > :30:41.World Championships for China. But Etiene Medeiros wins the second
:30:42. > :30:51.semifinal. I think that Georgia Davies will be forth. Let's check on
:30:52. > :30:59.that. There they are. Medeiros in fastest. -- fastest.
:31:00. > :31:07.That's going to be a great final. A great swim from Georgia Davies.
:31:08. > :31:10.It's just got really loud in here. We are building up to the men's 200
:31:11. > :31:15.butterfly, featuring two prominent Hungarians. Georgia Davies, a
:31:16. > :31:22.brilliant swim from her. New British record. It's great to see her back
:31:23. > :31:27.on form. She looks in incredible shape. I think, when you know you
:31:28. > :31:32.are swimming well, she's got the relay later and hopefully she'll be
:31:33. > :31:36.buzzing of that for that relay. She seems to be quicker for every race.
:31:37. > :31:40.Some people do that, they need to get up and race and feel more
:31:41. > :31:44.relaxed. She got a great start, her underwater is brilliant. Feeding off
:31:45. > :31:51.that spring environment just helps, being around other positive,
:31:52. > :31:54.world-class people. She seems to be getting faster through the rounds,
:31:55. > :31:58.another 24 hours rest and hopefully she will be faster tomorrow and who
:31:59. > :32:03.knows in the final. When it gets tight and it comes to the last few
:32:04. > :32:08.strokes, anything can happen. That will set her up nicely for the relay
:32:09. > :32:14.later. Definitely hunting a place on the podium, the British team. Next,
:32:15. > :32:18.the men's 200 metres fly final, one of the biggest races of the night.
:32:19. > :32:25.It's going to go crazy in here, because we have Tamas Kenderesi and
:32:26. > :32:29.Laszlo Cseh, a huge superstar. Let's see what happens in this one. It's
:32:30. > :32:30.the changing of the guard, no Michael Phelps. Who's going to take
:32:31. > :32:41.top spot? Thank you, Helen, and what a final
:32:42. > :32:47.it's going to be. Laszlo Cseh, the world fastest this year, in lane
:32:48. > :32:50.one. Tamas Kenderesi, the 20-year-old Hungarian, introduced to
:32:51. > :32:59.his home crowd. Olympic bronze-medallist. The crowd is so
:33:00. > :33:05.rowdy. Even louder Laszlo Cseh, defending world champion. Hungary in
:33:06. > :33:10.three and five. What a final this is going to be. Laszlo Cseh, defending
:33:11. > :33:20.champion, European record-holder and, in between the two of them,
:33:21. > :33:28.they are Saito of Japan. -- Seto of Japan.
:33:29. > :33:34.Laszlo Cseh in five. Next to him, actually, we didn't see him come
:33:35. > :33:39.out, it's Chad Le Clos of South Africa. Olympic champion from 2012.
:33:40. > :33:48.He beat Michael Phelps. I'm enjoyed by Great Britain's Stephen Parry,
:33:49. > :33:55.Olympic bronze-medallist. Tough one to call! It is. With Michael Phelps
:33:56. > :34:00.not being here, last year, 200 fly, he won the Olympic gold by only four
:34:01. > :34:07.one hundredths of a second. And Masato Sakai is going in lane one.
:34:08. > :34:12.He hasn't looked up to much. He looked out of sorts. I think this is
:34:13. > :34:17.wide open for the Hungarians. Tamas Kenderesi going in lane three
:34:18. > :34:21.Hungary. He got the bronze in the 200 fly. As Laszlo Cseh. I've got to
:34:22. > :34:28.be honest, I'd love to see him do this. It seems fitting. He's not out
:34:29. > :34:34.-- missed out so many times. I think he will.
:34:35. > :34:41.The final of the men's 200 metres butterfly, at the World
:34:42. > :34:45.Championships here in Budapest, Hungary. Kenderesi of Hungary in
:34:46. > :35:00.three, Cseh of Hungary in five. Four lengths of Hall butterflies,
:35:01. > :35:09.and the roof was about come off. -- four lengths of pool butterfly. A
:35:10. > :35:16.good start down the first 25. His problem is not going out too hard.
:35:17. > :35:19.He lost to fly and dived, to get out there and put the field under
:35:20. > :35:25.pressure, but he ends up hurting in the end. I fear he might be doing
:35:26. > :35:29.the same. That is Michael Phelps's world record and he's a true legend.
:35:30. > :35:34.He's got to be careful he doesn't out too hard. He's put the rest of
:35:35. > :35:39.the field under pressure. Laszlo Cseh is holding back, swimming his
:35:40. > :35:43.own race, and letting Chad Le Clos do his thing, not getting caught
:35:44. > :35:49.into it. What a raceway going to have. The third 50 will be
:35:50. > :35:53.all-important. That's the halfway turn, just outside Michael Phelps's
:35:54. > :35:56.record. 53.2, he is a full body length ahead. There is clear water
:35:57. > :36:06.between him and Laszlo Cseh, to the left of him. Cseh will come back
:36:07. > :36:10.fast, and so will Seto of Japan. Senedd Tamas Kenderesi always comes
:36:11. > :36:16.back fast. Right at the top is the world's fastest. I think he's gone
:36:17. > :36:21.too fast. He frustrates me. He has all the talent in the world and
:36:22. > :36:24.sometimes he swims like a rookie. Just look at Tamas Kenderesi, in
:36:25. > :36:29.three. A terrible turn from him. And Laszlo Cseh is seizing his
:36:30. > :36:35.opportunity. He fancies this. The crowd is behind him. Can he take
:36:36. > :36:41.Chad Le Clos, or can Chad Le Clos hold on? Laszlo Cseh is coming back
:36:42. > :36:48.fast, but it looks like Chad may hold on. This is gutsy. His head is
:36:49. > :36:54.down. He does it. What a fantastic, that the swim from Chad Le Clos.
:36:55. > :37:00.I've got to say, I expect that. -- gutsy swim. I didn't expect he could
:37:01. > :37:05.hold on, and he has gone 153.3. Chad Le Clos, world champion on the 200
:37:06. > :37:13.metres butterfly. The silver has gone to Cseh, the bronze to Seto, at
:37:14. > :37:21.Tamas Kenderesi in fourth. A surprise for me. But what a swim
:37:22. > :37:28.that was. I can't believe that, tactically, Cseh does that! Goodness
:37:29. > :37:36.me! Chad Le Clos, well, he and his dad won famous applause in 2012, but
:37:37. > :37:40.coming on and saying, lovely boy, when he won that wonderful race
:37:41. > :37:47.against Michael Phelps, beating Phelps by just 51 hundredths of a
:37:48. > :37:49.second to the gold medal in the London Olympic aquatics centre. God,
:37:50. > :37:56.that must have hurt so much! He is holding on for dear life. Look at
:37:57. > :38:06.him! Is start was excellent. Three links from the bottom. Very good.
:38:07. > :38:10.Look how tight he is forced first to the service, head down, no briefing
:38:11. > :38:17.on the first stroke. He was a long, long way ahead there is the Hundred
:38:18. > :38:22.turn, A full body length ahead. Now the pain in the lungs at this
:38:23. > :38:33.time... Beautiful. And close to the water. -- his shin close to the
:38:34. > :38:39.water. You just need to get the oxygen in at this stage. The last
:38:40. > :38:42.five metres, the last three strokes, heads down. Can't believe it! Well
:38:43. > :38:51.done. What a difficult time he's had. Both of his parents had cancer,
:38:52. > :38:58.both in remission, I'm delighted to say. The silver-medallist, Laszlo
:38:59. > :39:08.Cseh. But a quite brilliant World Championship title. He won it in
:39:09. > :39:15.2013, silver in 2015 to Laszlo Cseh. An emotional Chad Le Clos. Gold to
:39:16. > :39:23.Chad Le Clos of South Africa in the men's 200 fly.
:39:24. > :39:31.And the crowd has erupted for the legend that is Laszlo Cseh, because
:39:32. > :39:35.he is talking to the crowd down by the pool. We thought he was going to
:39:36. > :39:39.do it, we bought the place would erupt, but Chad had too much for
:39:40. > :39:45.him. It shows how much respect they have for each other. Chad went over
:39:46. > :39:47.to Laszlo and stuck his arm in the air, because rightly so. There has
:39:48. > :39:52.always been a big battle between them and it was so close. At Chad
:39:53. > :39:58.always wins the same way. He looks around in the last 50 metres. He
:39:59. > :40:03.couldn't believe it himself, to be fair. The time he beat Michael
:40:04. > :40:07.Phelps, Michael Phelps was the hair and nobody thought he was coming
:40:08. > :40:10.back to him, and Chad came back to him. Now he swims like Michael
:40:11. > :40:17.Phelps. Down the last 25 metres, you could see Laszlo Cseh in the yellow
:40:18. > :40:20.was getting closer and closer. Another two metres, another stroke,
:40:21. > :40:23.I think he might have got him. You've got to give it to Chad. You
:40:24. > :40:28.could say it was timed to perfection. The boys say, why does
:40:29. > :40:31.he go out so fast? That is his way of racing and his rhythm. I don't
:40:32. > :40:39.think you can shorten it will slow it down. Laszlo Cseh might be the
:40:40. > :40:43.guy that the Hungarians are talking about, but in Britain everybody's
:40:44. > :40:44.talking about Adam Peaty, ripping up the history books and making it look
:40:45. > :41:19.easy. As you can see, Stephen Parry joins
:41:20. > :41:24.us in the studio. Don't look nervous! I didn't think that Chad Le
:41:25. > :41:30.Clos was going to win that, but now I'm looking forward Adam Peaty, so
:41:31. > :41:34.that's all right. Well rehearsed in the logistics of telly already!
:41:35. > :41:39.Making your debut, are you having fun? Not as much as you guys! You
:41:40. > :41:43.have a ball! Let's talk about Adam Peaty. In the ten years you have
:41:44. > :41:48.been commentating, where does this rank in terms of special minutes?
:41:49. > :41:53.There are many elections in sport, and it can come from people who do
:41:54. > :41:56.things repeatedly. -- many legends. If you think of the likes of Janet
:41:57. > :42:02.Evans, she transported these thoughtful about a couple of
:42:03. > :42:05.decades, but that will be the measure of Adam Peaty. How long can
:42:06. > :42:09.he do it for? He is definitely world-class but I don't know if he
:42:10. > :42:14.is legendary yet. He is definitely legend in the gym, he pushes, the
:42:15. > :42:19.way he sits and does press ups with people on his back. This is
:42:20. > :42:24.something that people can relate to. How brutal is his training regime?
:42:25. > :42:30.He is a beast. You look for every inch and margin in the pool and you
:42:31. > :42:37.want to get as strong as possible he has arms the size of Steve's legs, I
:42:38. > :42:44.must admit. I do loads of press ups! Underlay few for you later. -- I'll
:42:45. > :42:49.do a few for you. Earlier, you were being competitive about it. Let's
:42:50. > :42:56.put a four-month-old child on our backs anyway! I don't want to cause
:42:57. > :43:01.any Intel swimmer fights. What about breaststroke? I think this is part
:43:02. > :43:04.of the region the nation can buy into what he's doing. They know what
:43:05. > :43:12.it's like to swim like that. We have a history of breaststroke, and now
:43:13. > :43:16.we've had many world and Olympic champions, and I think, when you've
:43:17. > :43:20.got history in a sport, people have role models and they want to get
:43:21. > :43:24.into that stroke for those reasons. The main thing he's doing an
:43:25. > :43:28.breaststroke is he's changing the struggled there used to be places
:43:29. > :43:32.where a guy could slow down. -- changing the stroke. This guy keeps
:43:33. > :43:37.going, because of his athleticism. He can keep turning back stroke
:43:38. > :43:48.over. If you watch some slow Mo of him and you get some underwater
:43:49. > :43:51.'s... Everybody else is doing a squat motion. When you get through a
:43:52. > :43:57.tube, the more streamlined you are, the less resistance you create. A
:43:58. > :44:00.lot of people associate breaststroke with being slow, and Adam has
:44:01. > :44:06.changed that, because it is pure speed and power and it isn't boring
:44:07. > :44:10.to watch at all. We are building up to Adam's final. Who knows what he's
:44:11. > :44:19.going to do? Here's what he did in the semifinal last night. Great
:44:20. > :44:24.Britain world record-holder, second semifinal of the men's 50
:44:25. > :44:31.breaststroke. Adam Peaty in the centre in four. That's a very good
:44:32. > :44:39.start from Kirill Prigoda in three. But now Senedd Adam Peaty goes, and
:44:40. > :44:44.looking very strong. -- Peaty. Adam Peaty starting to go ahead. Starting
:44:45. > :44:53.to streak ahead. This is a 50 metres breaststroke, and look at this.
:44:54. > :45:00.25.95! 25.95!! There goes project 25. Oh, my goodness me! I never
:45:01. > :45:04.thought I'd live to see the day when a breaststroke swimmer would go 25
:45:05. > :45:12.seconds to 50 minutes breaststroke. That is phenomenal.
:45:13. > :45:22.What a special moment that was. You, Steve, did, what did you do then? I
:45:23. > :45:24.might have let out a little yelp. I was like
:45:25. > :45:28.What a special moment that was. You, Steve, did, what did you do then? I
:45:29. > :45:31.might have let out a little yelp. I was like my five-year-old daughter,
:45:32. > :45:33.I was like "Oh, look at that." That is a butterfly time. Butterfly
:45:34. > :45:35.swimmers will struggle toll go that time. It is phenomenal.
:45:36. > :45:40.It is absolutely fine for you to squeal. Get yourself excited. It is
:45:41. > :45:44.really something special to watch. Budapest is a city that is full of
:45:45. > :45:51.history. Do you think though, that Adam Peaty will break the world
:45:52. > :45:54.record tonight? Yes. 25.9 is very quick but if anyone can do it he
:45:55. > :46:00.can. In this environment, it is going to get tight in the final and
:46:01. > :46:05.things can get snatchy, but, if he starts off, what do you think? Every
:46:06. > :46:09.time he gets in the water I think he is going to break the world record.
:46:10. > :46:15.I want him to get the gold. If he gets the record as well, that will
:46:16. > :46:20.be great. Budapest is a city full of history and Adam Peaty is certainly
:46:21. > :46:23.dominating. It sounds like the Italian national is playing out for
:46:24. > :46:28.him. It is for Federica Pellegrini who won the 200 free earlier. You
:46:29. > :46:30.love this anthem. We can enjoy you talking about Adam Peaty and how he
:46:31. > :46:57.is very much the future. The beautiful city of Budapest has
:46:58. > :47:02.been shaken by a roar. The Navy of the Roman Empire used
:47:03. > :47:08.the river to dominate for years. Domination on the water? He's got
:47:09. > :47:13.this. Through sheer power, the river
:47:14. > :47:18.carves its own path. When you see no limit, imagination
:47:19. > :47:27.is your only barrier. Going where no-one has gone before.
:47:28. > :47:42.That is phenomenal! Deep breath. Dive in. Destroy.
:47:43. > :47:48.Becky you you know Adam, and his coach. What do you think he will do
:47:49. > :47:52.tonight? Just as Steve said, every time I dives in, non-knows but you
:47:53. > :47:55.have to expect something magical, something incredible is about to
:47:56. > :48:00.happen so you need to make sure you are not going to put the kettle on!
:48:01. > :48:04.I think the thing is they is have such a unique partnership. I can
:48:05. > :48:09.remember meeting a Adam after London and he was a little twig of a man.
:48:10. > :48:14.Now he has just changed phenomenally and mentally, just as much as
:48:15. > :48:18.physically, he is so unique and so special, and it, you can't compare
:48:19. > :48:25.anyone to him. He is a very unique, we say it too much. There is nothing
:48:26. > :48:29.enough adjectives to describe him. We have seen his rivals change their
:48:30. > :48:34.programme, is that going to trouble him? No. I think this evening when
:48:35. > :48:38.you are that far ahead of everyone else, half a second going into a
:48:39. > :48:45.final. If you look at his times there, he dominates. 25.9 to
:48:46. > :48:49.Cameron's 26.5. Cameron at his best, over 50 metres, that is a world. So
:48:50. > :48:54.it will be, he should stand on that block and we know he is extremely
:48:55. > :48:59.confident any way, it is going to be his medal. It is what time Health
:49:00. > :49:03.Secretary he goes. If I stood on the block knowing I was 0. 6 faster, he
:49:04. > :49:09.will not have a worry. You are excited about what you are going to
:49:10. > :49:12.do. He is just thinking about times, we joked about project 25. That
:49:13. > :49:17.wasn't even on the agenda coming here. Sometimes that is when it
:49:18. > :49:23.happen, and the thing is, it isn't an Olympic event so last year when
:49:24. > :49:27.he has tapered, swimmers don't rest a lot. It is twice a year at the
:49:28. > :49:32.most, so he didn't race it particularly much last year with it
:49:33. > :49:36.being a non-Olympic event. He has had a shine this year, I spoke to
:49:37. > :49:40.MLA before the competition started and she said the a 50 will be
:49:41. > :49:43.special. They knew that the 50, he was going to do something incredible
:49:44. > :49:48.and he has. There has been a lot made of his start. What should
:49:49. > :49:53.people look out for? Mel spoke about the start. She gets plus traited
:49:54. > :49:57.that people keep talking about it, he does abide by the rule, he does
:49:58. > :50:01.do the one kick, they have worked so much on that, if you look at his
:50:02. > :50:06.start, from Kazan if you played the replay of his start in Kazan, he has
:50:07. > :50:10.changed so much and improved so much. The beauty is he can get
:50:11. > :50:14.better, that means he will get faster. The other guys have great
:50:15. > :50:18.starts and he has a good start but he can get great. Normally when Pete
:50:19. > :50:26.poet is in the pool we say let's get ready to rumble but Steve is in the
:50:27. > :50:32.xhep trixxxx commentary box so we'll say get ready to squeal. Over to you
:50:33. > :50:37.guys. A little harsh Helen, but maybe fair! The final of the men's
:50:38. > :50:44.50 metres breaststroke. Adam Peaty as expected will go in lane four as
:50:45. > :50:49.the fastest qualifier, set a massive world record in the semifinal. Next
:50:50. > :50:56.to him Cameron Van Der Burgh. He is in three.
:50:57. > :51:01.Lima in five. It is hard to see past Adam Peaty though. There is Kevin
:51:02. > :51:06.Cordes, the Silver Medal in the 100 metres breaststroke. This really all
:51:07. > :51:12.about Adam Peaty and its man against the clock. It is. There is Prigoda,
:51:13. > :51:19.the Russian, he got a bronze in the 100 butterfly. I can't see him
:51:20. > :51:24.troubling Adam Peaty. There was a world records tumbling. There has
:51:25. > :51:29.been an African record from this man Cameron Van Der Burgh. A south
:51:30. > :51:35.American record. They are trying to keep pace with Peaty but they can't
:51:36. > :51:40.make it happen. It is going to by a amazing to see if he can break the
:51:41. > :51:45.world record again. He has to be quick off blocks and he has to make
:51:46. > :51:51.sure he gets up and into that phenomenal stroke as quickly as he
:51:52. > :52:00.can. No-one has defended this title.
:52:01. > :52:07.The double-double is on for Adam Peaty. He has won the 100 here. He
:52:08. > :52:13.has set two world record on this 50. I can't see anyone getting anywhere
:52:14. > :52:22.near him. There is Lima of Brazil. That is
:52:23. > :52:28.Gomes of Brazil in lane seven. There is Adam Peaty.
:52:29. > :52:33.Absolutely phenomenal. The reaction testify world round us
:52:34. > :52:38.when he won that semifinal, there wasn't any yelping it was simply
:52:39. > :52:43.shaking of heads, unbelievable, 25.9.
:52:44. > :52:46.Watch the start, if he can be level at the start, every chance of a
:52:47. > :53:00.world record. The final of the men's 50 metres
:53:01. > :53:03.breaststroke. Adam Peaty in four. A good solid reaction to the gun in
:53:04. > :53:09.the centre and a good start for Adam Peaty. This is great new, if he gets
:53:10. > :53:13.a good start, that what got him the world record world record. He is
:53:14. > :53:17.starting to go. This is amazing. Brilliant breaststroke womening. In
:53:18. > :53:20.the centre in the black hat. He is making the rest of the world reset
:53:21. > :53:25.their dreams because they are no longer quick enough. The time 25.99,
:53:26. > :53:30.just outside of his own world record and the rest of the world starting
:53:31. > :53:35.to come with him. They really tried but no-one got within half a second
:53:36. > :53:40.of Great Britain's Adam Peaty. He won gold on under -- on the 50 and
:53:41. > :53:48.now he has done the double-double. Gracious heavens. Gold on the 100,
:53:49. > :53:51.gold on the 50. Brilliant swimming. He has done it again, looked
:53:52. > :53:57.fantastic over those last ten metres and it was really only the last five
:53:58. > :54:00.metres that he put some distance between himself and Gomes Junior,
:54:01. > :54:06.the Brazilian swam really well there. That is the second fastest
:54:07. > :54:12.time there has ever been swum apart from anyone else but Adam Peaty. He
:54:13. > :54:17.is so strong. This guy is just so unbelievably athletic. 15 metre he
:54:18. > :54:22.was still the slowest person. That is really exciting. He is going 25
:54:23. > :54:29.seconds, with improvements that can be made. Well, all in a line there,
:54:30. > :54:34.but it is phenomenal. He gets to about 25, 30 metres and it is almost
:54:35. > :54:41.like he just adds in that extra motor, on the left-hand side you can
:54:42. > :54:45.see the 31-year-old Gomes, phenomenal, setting a lifetime best
:54:46. > :54:51.that the age. Look at this. Peaty still only 22. He has won Olympic
:54:52. > :54:56.Gold, world gold. Commonwealth gold. He has won European gold and he is
:54:57. > :55:07.back on it again. Round for a second helping. Quite brilliant.
:55:08. > :55:14.The guy is phenomenal. Adam Peaty adds gold in the 50 beck stroke to
:55:15. > :55:20.the gold he won on the 100. Gomes the silver. Van Der Burgh the
:55:21. > :55:24.bronze. Two world titles in one week, congratulations to Adam Peaty
:55:25. > :55:31.but it is like, he didn't get a world record. We are come on. He has
:55:32. > :55:36.spoilt us too much. ? If you had to Adam you will go under 26 twice, he
:55:37. > :55:40.would go no. You can tell he is happy. He looked surprise when he
:55:41. > :55:43.did it in the semifinal, so, phenomenal week for him. We were
:55:44. > :55:47.hoping to hear from him but he has the relay later on, so we will
:55:48. > :55:51.hopefully catch up with him after that. The team look very proud. All
:55:52. > :55:56.of the British swimmers are up behind us. Let us look at his race
:55:57. > :56:00.one more time, because as we have said it is really is something
:56:01. > :56:04.special. There is not enough words to
:56:05. > :56:09.describe what he does, and how good he is S he had a good start. The guy
:56:10. > :56:13.down in lane 8 had an immense start but he was never in the race after
:56:14. > :56:19.that point. Adam got away with him. He didn't give away a lot. You see
:56:20. > :56:26.25 metres he starts slowly moving away, and another as Becky said,
:56:27. > :56:34.under 26 seconds. It is still an immense swim, so I think the finish
:56:35. > :56:38.was great. He spotted them all well. For Adam he is openly talked about
:56:39. > :56:43.how he gets up for races and how much he gives and how much he takes
:56:44. > :56:48.the nerves each time. Tonight it will be in his mind he has to step
:56:49. > :56:52.up. He will want to put in a good performance for the relay later, so
:56:53. > :56:56.as well he has come into this, he has broke a world record twice. He
:56:57. > :57:01.has the gold medal. He ain't done bad. He ain't done bad. Huge
:57:02. > :57:05.congratulations to Adam Peaty and of course Mel Marshall. Next up with
:57:06. > :57:09.have the women's 200 fly semifinals and in the second semifinal, we have
:57:10. > :57:19.Great Britain's Alys Thomas. It will be loud. She goes against the
:57:20. > :57:23.Hungarian. Take us through this. I had a few niggling injuries last
:57:24. > :57:27.year, I knew, full training would get me where I needed to be this
:57:28. > :57:31.year, and competeling on a world class stage with these guys who are
:57:32. > :57:35.world class, it is a massive achievement. I can do what they are
:57:36. > :57:39.doing and I am doing what they are doing. It has been about improving
:57:40. > :57:43.the little things and the little things make a massive difference,
:57:44. > :57:49.and hopefully then, that will take off a bit more of my time. I would
:57:50. > :57:50.like to say I can back up the times with a PB. That is what I would like
:57:51. > :58:10.to do. Zhang and Zhou of China. They are
:58:11. > :58:15.fastest two after heats this morning.
:58:16. > :58:20.Zhang in four. The World Championship bronze medal list years
:58:21. > :58:25.ago. This is an interesting race, this 200 metres butterfly. Like the
:58:26. > :58:32.men's it is difficult to call. The world record set eight years ago,
:58:33. > :58:40.back in Rome. Known is near that. This is your race, the 200 fly. How
:58:41. > :58:45.is it going to unfold this, in this first or second. That 2.01. That is
:58:46. > :58:50.phenomenal. That will stand for many more years
:58:51. > :58:54.I should imagine. The Crown often goes to brave. Those who are
:58:55. > :58:58.prepared to take it out. We saw Chad Le Clos there, he was committed and
:58:59. > :59:07.managed to hold on, win that title. You need a bit on this event. It can
:59:08. > :59:11.work against you. An there leading in lane three. A
:59:12. > :59:16.few seconds off that world record pace but thaw is phenomenal.
:59:17. > :59:22.There is very little to choose between the six coming down this
:59:23. > :59:25.first 125. This the first of the two semifinals. Alys Thomas goes in the
:59:26. > :59:32.second. She actually has a pretty good opportunity to make the final,
:59:33. > :59:40.because her lifetime best of 2.078 could be good enough. If she can
:59:41. > :59:48.stick in a PB o2:07.4 she could do it.
:59:49. > :59:52.Look out for Makino as well. The Japanese, on the right hand side of
:59:53. > :59:56.the screen. She is the third ranked swimmer in the world. We expect the
:59:57. > :00:03.Japanese and Chinese to finish fast. Get themselves a top spot for that
:00:04. > :00:06.final tomorrow. So four, five and six are the
:00:07. > :00:15.fastest in theory. At the moment it looks like it will be five. Zhou of
:00:16. > :00:20.China. This is exciting for Alys Thomas. If she can get close to her
:00:21. > :00:27.lifetime best she has a super chance of making the final.
:00:28. > :00:40.Is winning it in lane five, Zhou China. Hasegawa second. Well, that
:00:41. > :00:49.is right on Aled Thomas's best time, so she's got a chance. I'm getting
:00:50. > :00:54.excited for the city of Swansea swimmer. She needs to give herself a
:00:55. > :01:03.chance. Beautiful streamlining an entry from the Chinese swimmer. It's
:01:04. > :01:07.often hard, when you are swimming against your country person,
:01:08. > :01:10.somebody you swim against so much, I always found that the World
:01:11. > :01:15.Championships that I wanted to be against the international swimmers
:01:16. > :01:26.rather than the team-mates. Absolutely, yes. Well, Yufei Zhang
:01:27. > :01:34.in four ended up in third and Zhou in five.
:01:35. > :01:46.The second semifinal sees Alice Thomas of Great Britain in one, but
:01:47. > :01:50.look at this, Katinka Hosszu, Franziska Hentke, a big second semi.
:01:51. > :01:56.Very good experience for Alice Thomas, and it must be wonderful to
:01:57. > :01:59.come into a race like this and have two Hungarians, and will hear the
:02:00. > :02:04.noise for those two. There is Aled Thomas. It's going to be interesting
:02:05. > :02:10.to see their reaction when the Hungarians are introduced. -- Alice
:02:11. > :02:21.Thomas. She looks very focused. She is the British champion on the 100.
:02:22. > :02:26.We have the Australian, Brianna Throssell, 21. She made the final at
:02:27. > :02:35.the Olympics. There are some very good swimmers. Stefania Pirozzi of
:02:36. > :02:40.Italy in lane two, right next to Alys, but then the big guns.
:02:41. > :02:46.Franziska Hentke of Germany, the fastest in the world this year, but
:02:47. > :02:50.it's a tight world ranking. Liliana Szilagyi, the second Hungarian, in
:02:51. > :02:57.three. The third fastest qualifier for this semifinal. And Mireya
:02:58. > :03:04.Belmont, an Olympic champion in this 200 metres butterfly, but she swam a
:03:05. > :03:09.good 1500 last night. I think she'll take a lot of confidence from that
:03:10. > :03:14.race. She got a silver. What a reception for Katinka Hosszu! She
:03:15. > :03:21.really is a hero for the whole of Hungary. A packed crowd here tonight
:03:22. > :03:31.to watch her. 28 and still doing it. She's won seven gold medals at the
:03:32. > :03:35.world chalk calls earlier this year. Reaction to her gold in the 200
:03:36. > :03:41.metres medley was something special. It's so hard to hear yourself think,
:03:42. > :03:50.never mind talk. Belmont, the olive champion. The fastest in the world,
:03:51. > :03:57.Franziska Hentke. The Germans have a really poor meet so far. This must
:03:58. > :04:01.be Germany's best chance of a medal. That will be tomorrow in the final,
:04:02. > :04:15.presuming she makes it through. Franziska Hentke of Germany in six.
:04:16. > :04:17.Belmonte in five. One lane up from her, the fastest qualifier, Katinka
:04:18. > :04:35.Hosszu in four. Great Britain Frost Aled Thomas goes
:04:36. > :04:44.in -- Great Britain's Alys Thomas. Thomas at the top for Great Britain.
:04:45. > :04:48.Right in the centre, the Olympic champion, with the pink suit. Never
:04:49. > :04:53.particularly goes out quicker than the first 50. Belmonte had a right
:04:54. > :04:58.ding-dong in the middle of the pool at the Olympics. Perfect tactics to
:04:59. > :05:06.come home and to win the gold. She is grabbing this race by the scruff
:05:07. > :05:10.of the neck. Hosszu on her shoulder. I'm excited by Alys Thomas in lane
:05:11. > :05:17.one. She's got a personal best of 2.0 seven. If she does that, every
:05:18. > :05:22.chance of making the final. She's going well at the moment. She had a
:05:23. > :05:27.decent second half in the heats this morning. Leading at the halfway turn
:05:28. > :05:35.in this second semifinal of the women's 200 fly. It's actually
:05:36. > :05:43.Hentke. By two one hundredths of a second. The fastest in the world.
:05:44. > :05:47.She is breathing to her left. Why would you do that on fly? A bit
:05:48. > :05:54.shallower over the water, rather than going up and down. I'm excited
:05:55. > :05:59.for Alys Thomas at the top. She's looking good. She really needs to
:06:00. > :06:04.dig deep over the last 50 to make this final. Franziska Hentke, number
:06:05. > :06:09.one in the world, she's got to prove it now over this last length. The
:06:10. > :06:13.Olympic champion in the centre of the lane, in the pink, she says no,
:06:14. > :06:22.she's not going to make it easy on the German. Come on, Alys Thomas, in
:06:23. > :06:25.lane one. If Alys can bring it back down this last 20, she has a chance
:06:26. > :06:31.for the final. She's got to move it along though. Coming back is
:06:32. > :06:36.Belmonte. It looks like it's going to be Franziska Hentke. Times are
:06:37. > :06:43.pretty quick, which is good news for Alys. I'm not sure if she's going to
:06:44. > :06:46.make the final. Eight at swim, that was, that last 50. She hung on very
:06:47. > :07:01.well. -- a tough swim. Alys finishing sixth. That may be a
:07:02. > :07:07.position or to a bit to locals that a good swim, though. Great
:07:08. > :07:14.experience for her. -- that may be a position or two too low. I wonder if
:07:15. > :07:19.that every programme has taken a toll. She won't like coming forth in
:07:20. > :07:23.front of her home crowd. But a tough event to back-up. You don't want to
:07:24. > :07:29.be getting in and out of the water, getting around the walls, making
:07:30. > :07:35.sure you're not using speed. There is that sideways breath. You can see
:07:36. > :07:42.what she had for breakfast! Great catch at the front, though, using
:07:43. > :07:45.full use of the stroke. Great timing from the German. Great finish, hands
:07:46. > :07:55.on the wall. Where is Belmonte jams it. Finishing second, oh! You can
:07:56. > :08:00.judge her stroke, about ten metres out, you can change to make sure
:08:01. > :08:03.that you finish with a full arm. Don't worry too much, message to the
:08:04. > :08:06.husband. That was Katinka Hosszu, coming third. Franziska Hentke wins
:08:07. > :08:15.it. The first four places will make it
:08:16. > :08:20.through. I'm not sure if Alys is going to. I think she'll be a couple
:08:21. > :08:30.of places outside the final, but good experience for her.
:08:31. > :08:37.I think Great Britain's Alys Thomas finished 13th, just outside her
:08:38. > :08:47.best, but very good experience. A shame for Alys Thomas. The guys
:08:48. > :08:53.were saying it's good experience. What will she take away? Both on the
:08:54. > :08:57.100 and tonight, she hasn't reached her personal best. It's her debut, a
:08:58. > :09:01.daunting new experience, and hopefully she'll learn and move
:09:02. > :09:05.forward. She probably wanted to come into this meet and at least get some
:09:06. > :09:09.personal best times, so she will be slightly disappointed, but it's good
:09:10. > :09:12.to be disappointed. It drives you and makes you more determined next
:09:13. > :09:17.season to get back in, to train harder and work harder. What do you
:09:18. > :09:27.make of Katinka Hosszu? What do you make of her swim? I said this
:09:28. > :09:30.earlier on the 200 free, as in, why swim that? We knew she wouldn't
:09:31. > :09:33.stand a chance of winning a medal but she had a chance of winning that
:09:34. > :09:37.race. It's one of those things where she wants to challenge and push
:09:38. > :09:42.herself, and she swims a lot of events. We had a discussion about
:09:43. > :09:46.the fact that Pellegrini and heard and get on well. I think she was
:09:47. > :09:52.trying to make the point that she could beat her, and it didn't work.
:09:53. > :09:59.The 200 fly after 200 free, with 200 metres, it wouldn't hurt. She knew
:10:00. > :10:03.it was just the semifinal, not the final, so she knows she can come
:10:04. > :10:06.back tomorrow night. She wants to push the boundaries so she can work
:10:07. > :10:10.out for the next Olympic season what she's going to race. She's good at
:10:11. > :10:14.so many events. It could have backfired if she was really
:10:15. > :10:21.knackered. Then she wouldn't have liked this lockdown! Her husband is
:10:22. > :10:25.quite aggressive. -- she wouldn't have let this lockdown. Still to
:10:26. > :10:32.come, we got record-breaking Max Litchfield. -- Max Litchfield. He
:10:33. > :10:36.broke the Commonwealth and British record this morning, so he is in
:10:37. > :10:43.fine form. At 6pm, you need to press the red button for the men's
:10:44. > :10:49.50-metre rest stroke medal ceremony. And we have Adam Peaty on top of the
:10:50. > :10:54.podium in that. He won gold. Two events which have just been added to
:10:55. > :10:59.the Olympics, the men's 800 metres freestyle is set 6:05pm, and then
:11:00. > :11:08.the mixed medley relay, featuring Great Britain, Georgia Davies, Adam
:11:09. > :11:11.Peaty, Siobhan-Marie O'Connor. As you can hear, this place is going
:11:12. > :11:14.crazy and it's fair to say that Hungary have certainly put on a
:11:15. > :11:21.spectacle. They are cheering for Laszlo Cseh, the legend that is Mr
:11:22. > :11:26.Cseh, standing up for his silver medal in the men's 200 metres
:11:27. > :11:29.butterfly. That event was won by Chad Le Clos. Let's talk about Adam
:11:30. > :11:33.Peaty, who took the title in the 100th. If you joined us, you've
:11:34. > :11:40.missed him taking the title. -- if you just joined us.
:11:41. > :11:52.Adam Peaty of Great Britain in lame four. -- lane four. A good, solid
:11:53. > :11:57.reaction to the gun in the centre, and a good start for Adam Peaty.
:11:58. > :12:01.This is great news. If you can get a good start in the semifinal, that's
:12:02. > :12:05.what we got him his world record. This is amazing, brilliant
:12:06. > :12:10.breaststroke swimming. Peaty in the centre in a black hat. He's making
:12:11. > :12:15.the rest of the world reset their dreams, because those dreams are no
:12:16. > :12:17.longer quick enough. The time, just outside his world record, and the
:12:18. > :12:22.rest of the world starting to come with him. They really tried, but
:12:23. > :12:27.nobody got within half a second of Great Britain's Adam Peaty. He won
:12:28. > :12:33.gold on the 50, and done the double double.
:12:34. > :12:39.You join us as the national anthem is playing in the background for
:12:40. > :12:43.Chad Le Clos, because he took gold in the men's 200 metres butterfly. A
:12:44. > :12:48.bit later, we're going to sing our own national anthem for Adam Peaty.
:12:49. > :12:52.Chad Le Clos very emotional. He is a man who wears his heart on its
:12:53. > :12:57.sleeve, and it was wonderful to see in congratulating Laszlo Cseh
:12:58. > :13:00.earlier as he took that title. A brilliant race, a brilliant
:13:01. > :13:09.spectacle for us in the Danube Arena. Sharon Davies... Hello!
:13:10. > :13:14.Welcome. It's crazy in here. The atmosphere is insane. Talk us
:13:15. > :13:17.through the atmosphere poolside, when Adam Peaty is prowling round,
:13:18. > :13:24.the Aussie is a force to be reckoned with. Detoxed himself a lot. --
:13:25. > :13:30.because he is a force. He talks to himself a lot. He is an absolute
:13:31. > :13:33.gentleman. He has won the 50 breaststroke but he can't stop
:13:34. > :13:38.because he's got the 50 medley relay, and he apologised as he
:13:39. > :13:42.walked past. He was like, sorry! I was like, go and get a break! We
:13:43. > :13:48.need you! He finds time to speak to everybody. The Swedes next door say
:13:49. > :13:53.he is such a lovely, articulate young man. He has a really good
:13:54. > :13:56.reputation. Talking of lovely, articulate men with a good
:13:57. > :14:07.reputation, Chad Le Clos is one of them as well, isn't he? Winger he
:14:08. > :14:11.is. There is that Birt as well. He got very emotional in a interview
:14:12. > :14:15.talking about that race. It brings you into perspective when you have
:14:16. > :14:18.two parents diagnosed with cancer, now in remission and goodness, but
:14:19. > :14:22.last year it looked like he was going to lose both of -- it looked
:14:23. > :14:29.like he was going to lose both of them. He also apologised!
:14:30. > :14:36.It must be so nice for you guys for the world to see characters in any
:14:37. > :14:39.doubt of the Will -- in and out of the pool. Absolutely, these people
:14:40. > :14:44.have big personalities, which is what we want to get out, television,
:14:45. > :14:46.because we want to sell our sport. It's an amazing, life-saving sport.
:14:47. > :14:54.It's important that children can swim. Rebecca is having a swim
:14:55. > :14:57.school. At the moment, we are not doing enough. There is the
:14:58. > :15:00.competitive side but also the recreational and fitness site and
:15:01. > :15:05.the life-saving skill that swimming is. We know Adam with a lot of
:15:06. > :15:09.effort and energy into encouraging youngsters to swim. So many people
:15:10. > :15:13.have said, my kids swam with Adam and they love him. What about his
:15:14. > :15:18.team-mates? What do they say about him?
:15:19. > :15:24.His confidence is, it rubs off on everybody. What is lovely for us is
:15:25. > :15:28.he starts at the begins so he sets the tone. I have been 11 Olympic
:15:29. > :15:31.Games now and I can tell you what happens early on in the programme
:15:32. > :15:35.has a very big effect on the team. When they believe in their
:15:36. > :15:39.preparation, or they start to have a few doubt, when he goes in and swims
:15:40. > :15:45.this way they believe in themselves. The nice thing is he is so humble.
:15:46. > :15:51.Like you speak to his team-mate, we spoke to James Guy, they don't
:15:52. > :15:55.idolise him, they don't think he is super human, they think if he can do
:15:56. > :15:59.it why can't I? He doesn't walk round he is better than anyone else.
:16:00. > :16:05.He doesn't have the arrogance, what is goening on behind me? ! What is
:16:06. > :16:09.this I thought it was Chad at first. I can't see him. It is an
:16:10. > :16:15.interesting thing. When you first make a team, I remember making a
:16:16. > :16:18.team at 15 and seeing Sharon and Adie Moorhouse, you think they are
:16:19. > :16:22.super human and you are not like them. You train with hem and eat
:16:23. > :16:25.with them and you go, hang on their are human, I have the opportunity
:16:26. > :16:35.they have and you sort of, it inspires you. We are seeing an
:16:36. > :16:39.example the crowd is going crazy for Laszlo Cseh and Chad Le Clos. We
:16:40. > :16:43.talk about Adam and he is cheeky. James Guy sent us a load of fun
:16:44. > :16:50.videos of what Adam gets away from training. We can't show them on
:16:51. > :16:56.television, they probably show very much of Adam. He is hard-working, we
:16:57. > :17:02.can't share them with you, it is prewatershed! Let us talk about
:17:03. > :17:07.another hard-working young man. Max Litchfield. We will see him in the
:17:08. > :17:13.individual medley shortly, he has been talking to Nico.
:17:14. > :17:19.Going into Rio my target was to just go there, having fun and hopefully
:17:20. > :17:26.do something amazing. I think I did that. Obviously missing the medals
:17:27. > :17:30.is annoying but at the end of day I went out, two PB, first Olympic
:17:31. > :17:34.Games. I can't complain. What would it mean if you were to go out and
:17:35. > :17:39.get a medal and put your name out there again? It would be fantastic.
:17:40. > :17:44.But I am looking to put in the processes that I am going to do in
:17:45. > :17:50.Tokyo and if that happens, to give me a medal shot, in Budapest, then
:17:51. > :17:54.that is fantastic, but, if I can go into Budapest an put a good time in
:17:55. > :17:56.and do things that I want to do right, then, I will be happy with
:17:57. > :18:13.that. Well Max Litchfield goes in the
:18:14. > :18:25.second heat. Let us see what he can do this evening.
:18:26. > :18:37.Max in the second semifinal. Here, the first semifinal, Chase Kalisz
:18:38. > :18:44.the fastest qualifier. So Kalisz in four. Seto in five. Here he is. What
:18:45. > :18:48.a double this, Steve. 200 fly, bronze medal and he has to come out
:18:49. > :18:54.of that and do a 200 medley. It has to have taken a bit out of him. I
:18:55. > :19:00.will be surprised if he can get through to final tomorrow, this
:19:01. > :19:05.fellow, Chase Kalisz, nice dab there. Good dabbing in the audience.
:19:06. > :19:11.Chase Kalisz, America have had a rich history in this event. The last
:19:12. > :19:16.four have been won by Ryan Lochte, you have to go all the way back to
:19:17. > :19:20.2001, to find anyone other than those two, that have won this event.
:19:21. > :19:25.Kalisz feels that weight of expectation, he said I do not want
:19:26. > :19:32.to relinquish this title to anyone else. It is a Changing of the Guard
:19:33. > :19:36.because Lochte and Phelps are not here. Lochte may come back. We will
:19:37. > :19:41.see if he imagines to come back after the one year ban he served
:19:42. > :19:52.after Rio. But this the first semifinal of the men's 200 medley.
:19:53. > :20:00.Chase Kalisz silver medallist. The bronze medallist is in five. A new
:20:01. > :20:05.bronze medallist on the 200 fly, Seto of Japan. Gracious. What a
:20:06. > :20:21.tough double this is. 200 fly. 200 medley. Let us see how Seto does. We
:20:22. > :20:26.know he is all right at that bit, but Lewis looks good down the 50.
:20:27. > :20:31.The young Chinese, 18 years of age, he looks like he could be winning
:20:32. > :20:36.this first 50, Qin going into the backstroke. Good underwater skills
:20:37. > :20:39.from him. Look at Kalisz's underwater, that was phenomenal. He
:20:40. > :20:45.wept into the turn about half a metre down and came up about half a
:20:46. > :20:51.metre up, and, that is just simply underwater skills, very very good
:20:52. > :20:55.indeed. Chase Kalisz of the USA, World Championship bronze medallist
:20:56. > :21:04.two years ago. He is a 400 specialist. This maybe a sprint for
:21:05. > :21:10.him. Chase Kalisz, it is Seto Steve. It is Seto leading and Kalisz at the
:21:11. > :21:16.moment... Decent breaststroke. I can't believe Seto is doing this. He
:21:17. > :21:22.has done the 200 metres butterfly. It hasn't affected him. Kalisz
:21:23. > :21:26.getting into it. Silver medallist on the 400 at the Olympic Games. I do
:21:27. > :21:29.take my hat off to Seto here, an amazing double. Looks like he has
:21:30. > :21:33.done enough to get through to the final tomorrow, the rest is all to
:21:34. > :21:43.play for among the other six. Kalisz great turn. He has 50 to to still.
:21:44. > :21:47.He has done a 200 fly. 50. The first 250 of 200 medley. He is chasing
:21:48. > :21:51.Kalisz now, and Kalisz, league look at this. He is going for it. Let us
:21:52. > :21:56.check on the world record. I don't think that is going to go. That is
:21:57. > :22:05.Lochte's but it is a good swim. What, 55? 1:55.8. Very good for
:22:06. > :22:13.Chase Kalisz. That just outside the fastest time in the world. Second
:22:14. > :22:18.fastest time in the world. 1:55.88. Qin of China third.
:22:19. > :22:22.Third, fourth five not particularly quick with two Brits in that second
:22:23. > :22:27.semifinal. We could have two Brits in the final. That would be great. I
:22:28. > :22:32.got excited about the fact of Max Litchfield here. That wasn't too
:22:33. > :22:38.fast. But Seto, I mean I have to take my hat off to that fella. What
:22:39. > :22:44.an unbelievable double. That guy is tough as old boots, isn't he. He did
:22:45. > :22:49.commit as well. Really strong butterfly and backstroke legs.
:22:50. > :22:54.Kalisz there. Great wall work. Really good streamlining. I would
:22:55. > :22:58.like to see him keep his head a bit still there. Bobbing all over the
:22:59. > :23:03.place. Fascinating tactics from Seto, he
:23:04. > :23:09.has just done a 200 fly, got a bronze medal. Blasts the fly, blasts
:23:10. > :23:17.the backstroke, wheels came off a bit but I suppose you can forgum his
:23:18. > :23:23.if he goe 1:56.9. Very good indeed. Good enough to pull faces at. That
:23:24. > :23:30.is Kalisz. Kalisz wins the first semifinal of
:23:31. > :23:41.the Medially. Seto, a New World junior record for Qin in third. Wow.
:23:42. > :23:51.After those first three, not particularly quick. So two Brits in
:23:52. > :23:57.the second semifinal of the men's 200 medley. Hagino goes in faster. A
:23:58. > :24:02.great opportunity for them to make this final. Well big personal best
:24:03. > :24:07.time for Litchfield this morning. It would be great if he can repeat that
:24:08. > :24:11.tonight. I think he surprised even himself. Bradlee Ashby the
:24:12. > :24:19.21-year-old from New Zealand. He was at the Olympic Games last year.
:24:20. > :24:26.There is Mark Szaranek of Great Britain. He won the American legion
:24:27. > :24:30.yacht national Championships. Not very many Brits have done that
:24:31. > :24:36.Steven parry. One or two this the commentary box have done it Andy.
:24:37. > :24:41.Once. Once Steve. One, well done, 200 fly champion. Couple of months
:24:42. > :25:00.ago, I think it was. I think it was 1997. Who is counting! Vazaios goes
:25:01. > :25:04.in two. We saw Wang Shun. There is another German, we haven't soon too
:25:05. > :25:07.many. This is day four of the World Championships and only seen one in
:25:08. > :25:14.the final and she has only made it through this evening. Swiss in three
:25:15. > :25:18.and then Max Litchfield, the new Commonwealth record holder. Here he
:25:19. > :25:22.is. What a wonderful swim this morning. That bit more of a sprint
:25:23. > :25:29.for him but he took it on so well, and just kept on going. He showed
:25:30. > :25:35.his promise at the Olympic games on that 400, but got a bit of speed now
:25:36. > :25:40.on the 200 here. There he is, Hagino. 4 hundred IM gold medallist
:25:41. > :25:45.from the Olympics last year, Andy, the top four of top five in the
:25:46. > :25:48.world this year go in this second heat, so this could be really really
:25:49. > :25:58.quick. It could. If we can get Szaranek in
:25:59. > :26:05.one, into the mix as well. He is capable of it he will probably have
:26:06. > :26:19.to go, maybe I am guessing a low 158. Anything 157. . Just standing
:26:20. > :26:27.to feet behind you is Max Litchfield's coach. Snuck in to get
:26:28. > :26:33.close to the action. Well done Ross. This could be fantastic. Fantastic:
:26:34. > :26:42.Come on Szaranek, come on Max Litchfield. The fastest in four,
:26:43. > :26:46.Hagino of Japan. Great Britain has Max Litchfield, looking down the
:26:47. > :26:58.pool. Big breath in. Right at the top. Mark Szaranek of Great Britain.
:26:59. > :27:03.Max Litchfield in five. They were held a long type. Decent
:27:04. > :27:09.start right in the centre for Hagino, Litchfield has gone with
:27:10. > :27:13.him. Gone with him very well. Now, Litchfield's very much fastest
:27:14. > :27:17.element of the Medially is the second half, he has to get through
:27:18. > :27:21.this fly. Try and hang on the Hagino and started going. Going well up at
:27:22. > :27:29.the top is Szaranek of Great Britain as well. Look at that. Hagino, off
:27:30. > :27:33.in 4 of a second. Sensational underwater work was well. Max
:27:34. > :27:36.Litchfield, he has competed initially on the backstroke leg, we
:27:37. > :27:40.can expect him to be strong here, work his way back on the the
:27:41. > :27:42.shoulders. Szaranek on the right-hand side, top of your screen
:27:43. > :27:47.there. Trying to work his way back in,
:27:48. > :27:52.Andy, look at that, this is promising, from Litchfield at the
:27:53. > :27:57.100 marker. So the half way turn and the second semifinal of the men's
:27:58. > :28:03.200 metres individual medley. Hagino has gone off like a shot. I have to
:28:04. > :28:07.say that Max Litchfield in the black cap is going very well indeed.
:28:08. > :28:11.Without Hagino there and world record pace, you have to say he is
:28:12. > :28:15.looking good. He has a great freestyle. He has some work to do.
:28:16. > :28:20.Right at the top still Mark Szaranek of Great Britain. He needs a 1.57.
:28:21. > :28:24.He has some wok do if he is going to make the final. Hagino will be first
:28:25. > :28:35.the turn. Max Litchfield maybe second or third. He is third. Come
:28:36. > :28:39.on Mitch Max Litchfield, hient. He has to finish in the top three or
:28:40. > :28:43.four. Come on Max Litchfield. Let's go to the leg, kick now.
:28:44. > :28:48.He is going well, he is in about second at the moment. Hagino is
:28:49. > :28:54.leading and he will get the touch on this second semifinal. Litchfield
:28:55. > :29:02.looks good. Second or third. Hagino, second is Litchfield. 1:57.607. That
:29:03. > :29:07.is just outside the record he set in the heats this morning. And the live
:29:08. > :29:10.racing and reaction to Adam Peaty's second world title of the week
:29:11. > :29:12.continues on the Red Button now. We will see you there.
