He owns two world records (400m IM LC, 200m IM SC), 5 individual European records, 10 French records (including relays). Fun facts: his uncle is part of two relays current French records, his father was runner up of the European championships 400 IM, and his mom was an Olympic swimmer too I think.
Announcer talking about Marchand’s underwaters at 0:44 but lane 1 or 8 (whichever that is, closest to the screen) deserves some credit too, he was underwater longer than Marchand and came up ahead😭
Kudos to Jonny Kulow for bringing home wins in both relays! ASUs Wyoming cowboy! (Actually he worked on a ranch that raised Buffalo so does that make him a Buffalo-boy?)
@@liamp1 Did I say that? The complaint is that only the USA is still using the imperial system, which is a disservice to these guys. They are not being challenged swimming. Swimming under water for most of a race (because yard see) is not a stroke. That is why the Olympics are held in a long course metric pool. Now go fight somewhere else.
@@kalaharikreef7371 sorry if my last message came off as rude. Short course swimming quite literally is still swimming, they’re still doing the strokes, just taking less then they would in long course. Also underwaters/walls are a hard skill to master for some people. Some people find short course harder than long course. It certainly is a challenge to be the best in the world at either. Have you ever swam short course yards? I live in the USA and let me say it’s not as easy, the best in the world just make it look easy
@@liamp1 I love underwater and the skill. It's just not swimming to me if more than a quarter is swum under water. See the difference between long and short course (even the 25m) it's massive. Before I had a coach that taught me the art of under water I beat the other competitors by a country mile when stroking. They evened it out of the wall. I had to pick up my game in that department but there should be a limit, like long course, to how long one can stay there. It's just my personal opinion. Some might disagree. You already get to push of the wall twice as much. The other side of the coin is that we see the skills transferred to the long course which is not bad.
You can complain about the US’s system all you want, but they produce best national swimming teams year in and year out. And now many of the worlds best young talent (Marchand, liendo, kos, etc) are going to US to train this system themselves. And it’s working
40.28 for a guy who isn't a sprinter!!!
best swimming talent ever
generational talent
he is now
Iik@@maximus3294
Incredible
40.28 just did it for me great SCY swimmer of all time bro owns 6 Pac-12 records which is insane
Yeah definitely. Crazy how he’s not a sprinter and could probably get the 100yd free record next year
he's him

Marchand can do it all. Incredible swimmer.
That moment when Marchand leads a relay off in a time that would've placed second in the individual event, in arguably one of his worse events.
I'm thinking 4 Gold Medals for Leon this summer
we are at 3 so far i think
Wow beautiful guess

But lost. And always will to him. Smh
Yousef Ramadan is pretty good lol
2 events where ASU destroyed Cal: 400IM (ASU 43, Cal 2) and 1650 (ASU 26, Cal 0)

It kind of looked like Liendo kind of slipped at the 50 turn or had a short underwater compared to Marchand
Had to be. He was a second faster in the individual
No way. He just choked
And he was probably tired from swimming the same individual event
Best athlete in the world. In Paris he will prove it.
Congrats nephew Patrick!! U guys rocked the house tnite n all week!
Go ASU!
40.28 would've tied 1st in the 100 free from 2023 NCAA
40.28 , isn't that 4th or 5th fastest 100 free in NCAA
🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
if josh liendo would have went 40.20 (the same time he went in the individual) the gators would have won
They lost by more than the amount of time he added tho... It would've been close by ASU would still have won
It’s hard to swim the same event twice in a night
Phelps did the same in 08 taking it out in 47.5 LC the best sprinters were going 47.2- 47.8.
It amazing to see someone emulate that in short course
If my wife had balls she’s be a he she n I wouldn’t have married it cuck
19.36/20.92
25yards is not really swimming.
Ok buddy how about you race any single one of these guys…

Congrats Arizona State minus Marchand.
