I saw that her finish was a little bit slow and the turn also. I belive that she can break the world record to 54

[@billybob6604]

true

[@SpaceflightExplained]

Yeah the turn was just a little far into her stroke

[@markgrainge8198]

I feel awful “criticising” a WR swim (well done Gretchen 💪🏽) but yes, the turn could be improved as there was a glide/stretch to the wall. Also, she breathed every stroke, right? Would her head being down on the final 2 or 3 strokes to the finish have knocked any time off? AMAZING swim though, bravoz

[@vrokhlenko]

@@markgrainge8198 She breathed every stroke for a reason = she already was losing speed and losing oxygen. With her extreme flexibility breathing every stroke is OK

[@billybob6604]

watching this live was crazy

[@owensunuwar697]

does this count as OFFICIAL WR?

[@billybob6604]

@@owensunuwar697 YES

[@williamnowacki]

Dang I think Gretchen is gonna go 54 seconds in the Olympics that was awesome 😎

[@alexbronynerfman]

Absolute dominance. Gretchen Walsh just start the swimming trial with the world record.

[@nathanielthomas4437]

Gonna tell my coach that I can breath on my breakouts cause Gretchen Walsh does 😂

I thought I was Tarzan 50 years ago with a 62 plus...these girls are not of this planet. Goodness me they are all incredible, I know how hard it was for myself and they would demolish me at my best.

[@HenriHattar]

There is barely 1.5 seconds separating the top 10 in this event this year.

[@jambo8157]

thats quite a lot lol

[@HenriHattar]

@@jambo8157 depends on how many laps it's over and if the person can reproduce that exceptional one off form ever again.

[@Arrica101]

That's an absolutey massive gap in swimming when it's over just 100m. 1.5 seconds is basically an eternity

[@williamoleary9330]

[@francisnguyen6349]

It's a new world record.

[@ashishtomar289]

That last 10 mtrs was painfully

[@jaxlone997]

_"to the wal-she goes"_

[@aaronatienza4416]

Does her record secures her a spot in medley relay in Paris?

[@richposports7030]

Sarah S Sweden 😢😮😊😢😮 was the Don. Wooooow!!!!!

[@blainesmall4991]

Maybe breathing every stroke is the answer? So amazing!

[@nightflyer3242]

G-Flo going to get 52 flat or 51.9 in the 100 free, lets go!!!

[@konefunecycle]

Didn't any judge notice the length of her fingernails? This gives her a pulling advantage over the other swimmers. At this level of competition, that makes a difference. At the next Olympics, I wouldn't be surprised to see her back with long nails.

Feed off the crowd...they need to just swim!

[@ncode03]

To see these great moments in women's sport, a mediocre trans woman swimmer could destroy this record and US nearly made that happen by allowing it. Goosebumps watching this

[@yks6989]

The Chinese defending champion Zhang Ye Fei will beat her.
