Boy she is special. Breathes first stroke off the start and typically off the wall. Gorgeous loping style. And I disagree a little with the announcer, her hands don’t enter in line with her shoulder but closer in. Can’t wait for this summer.

[@SportySpotlight]

It will hopefully be the summer of Summer in Paris! 😊

[@anbrohi]

She have to deal with Katie Ladekey from US in Paris, should be a great race for 400m

[@avntori]

Ariane Titmus would like a word.

[@Fred-vy1hm]

Yup it should be a good battle for second between Ledecky and Titmus. 😊🇨🇦

[@yihongli5805]

Summer's time probably would have gotten her a medal in the Olympics if it were to be held today. GO SUMMER GO!

[@gustaaf1892]

She'd have to swim considerably faster than that. There are 4 chances for the medals and she is obviously one of them.

[@ricardovillanueva6440]

Titmus vs Summer in this distance! Waiting with a bated breath here.

[@czesati2964]

7 golds 4 Summer in Paris 2024!

[@tiffanylowles552]

In what events besides 400 Free, and Relays, and 200/ 400 IM

[@BISH9484]

Was thinking 2, but now with more other contenders coming into play for the 200IM, she's only guaranteed 1 at this point in time for the 400IM.

[@tiffanylowles552]

@@BISH9484 and maybe the 400 free.. ? Titmus , Ledecky battle

[@BISH9484]

@@tiffanylowles552 I don't know her time here is good but not convincing enough to me for a gold medal. But the 400 Free is not a Ledecky v Titmus any more but moreso a Titmus v Summer at this point.

[@avntori]

@@BISH9484 one thing i noticed with Summer her stroke gets shorter and choppy as the race progresses certainly past the 200m mark.

[@Fred-vy1hm]

Less than 4 seconds off the world record and she's disappointed with her "slow" time. 🙄

[@jaimecorvus6373]

Good ! but sloppy technique (left arm across middle line), way back Manaudou or Van Almsick.

[@Gerhard2770]

"All gas and no brains" not a nice thing to say😂
