Mostly because she navigated the rounds very quietly going "only" 56 mid while some of the others were really announcing their presence with sub 56 swims. Ultimately there's no prizes for winning the rounds.
MacNeil paces her 100 fly so intelligently which makes me wonder if Zhang would be better off being less aggressive in the first 50. She surely would be able to bring it home hard with her 200 fly strength.
The guy calling the race didn't even notice that MacNeil was winning - not very smart. And MacNeil was world champion, but they didn't seem too interested in talking about her.
I'm only just commenting on this race now. Almost a year later, everyone is talking about Maggie. She's the best. Olympic Champion, World Champion and now the Commonwealth Champion. AMAZING!!!!!!!
McNeil‘s sprint endurance is unreal So explosive She’s got high turnover and able to beat other swimmers in the touch while the other swimmers are still mid-stroke. She has done this in other races. It’s not by luck.
When competition reached last 25 meters everyone thought USA Torri Huske would take the gold as she was still leading ! Who knew that the no 7 for 1st half, the Canadian could win the race! Quite shocking overturn!
Maggie MacNeil is my cousin. It's insanely cool to me how talented she is. I'm a lower level varsity Swimmer, and I admire her so much. Unfortunately I don't share any swimming genes with her because she's adopted lol, and she's my 2nd cousin, but I still think it's very cool. Edit: also she didnt realize she had won at first because she didnt have contacts in. As someone who wears contacts, I dont understand how she swims without them.
@@jimsmith8435 Nicole made a huge number of mistakes across events this time. In this one she talked about swim technique for a quarter of the race....urgh
@@garrywallace1007 talking about the reigning Olympic champion and world record holder is very typical. Idk why you seem to think commentators can see the future
You have to have mad respect for Sjostrom that she actually swam this race more or less out of respect for the new champion. She just wanted to be there.
@@s.sofiah7 she is just an ordinary swimmer out of 11 of her medals 7 came from relays 2 gold and 2 bronze came in Solo event .. She isn't not goat she is a Lamb
@@thunder300-v6vF off. bro I'm her cousin and I don't even know what the name she was given at birth was... Doesn't matter, because her name is Maggie, so thats what you should call her.
crazy that she was in first and ahead of the WR line with about 10-15 meters remaining, then out-touched for a medal by .01. Once she gets those down, watch out, she could be unstoppable. And this was only her 1st Olympics
❤ i was in the 25 yrd pool today swimming timed lengths and splits, and these ladies are insane. i cant even imagine the times they are doing this in, as if the style and form is not enough. i cant freestyle (yes i know, im no olympian swimmer, but still. dang) the times they did this in. its absurd :)
If Macneil were made in China, and won this match, would some western media say something unfair, so please respect every result players win for themselves.
She was “made” in China, her parents adopted her from an orphanage in China, her parents treated her and loved her with no difference from their own. Thanks to her parents that an orphan girl’s life was changed and became an Olympian Gold Medalist!
I think grant meant, western media loves critizing chinese swimmers (Which is kinda true). If Macniel was never adopted and won the gold, western media would be bringing doubts on her.
Makes you wonder if she grew up in China, would China’s National Swim Team identify her as a prospect? Not sure,….she’d have Parent’s who may or may not have been able to support her early swim passion, additionally, she doesn’t fit the China or any other country prototype….shortest one out there?!? Maggie had the passion to swim and win….all her and her supportive Parents and eventual Coaches.
Don't respond like an american Husk is young she is now in Stangord yes she ran out of gas but she will get stronger and will only be 21 for Paris But you have to admire macneil she got it done at worlds she got it done at nc2a's and now at the olimpics you got to love atholetes wjo have the killer instincts
Florence griffith joner a doper died very early.u r just plain bad loser.China dont have blcks.Bllcks came.from africa with america is.nothing in sport.
Going into this event Mac Neil was weirdly ignored by many international commentators even though she was the reigning World champion.
Mostly because she navigated the rounds very quietly going "only" 56 mid while some of the others were really announcing their presence with sub 56 swims. Ultimately there's no prizes for winning the rounds.
They knew something we didn’t
They ignored her because she's from the 'wrong' country.
@@GoWestYoungMan k buddy
@@DaelanPerera it’s true that’s why

been waiting for this one!!! her reaction is gold !!!
4:46 when you win an Olympic gold but left your glasses at home
As her cousin, that is exactly what happened lol

she may be the smallest in the crowd but swim the fastest and she wasn't realize she did it...that's ahmazing
And so was Joseph Schooling when he won on front of a stacked field including Phelps, Le Clos, and Cseh

So explosive

Emma McKeon beating Torri Huske by 0.01 gives me vibes from the Atlanta 1996 final in this event.
Maggie adorable person!
Her reaction and her win:
Gold twice! 💟 ✌😊...
IT'S NICE SEEING LANES 2 OR 7 WIN 😃
When competition reached last 25 meters everyone thought USA Torri Huske would take the gold as she was still leading ! Who knew that the no 7 for 1st half, the Canadian could win the race! Quite shocking overturn!
And after 3 years Torri Huske actually did it, she came back for the gold medal
I came back to watch this race today. So happy she got her medal...and it's GOLD

why winning of any individual from any country gives me goosebumps. I think thats the beauty of this event
Maggie's underwater is insane.
Exactly!!!!💕...
What a reaction: 'Oh my God!'
Sarah Sjostrom did NOT win three gold medals in Rio. She won ONE gold, one silver and one bronze.
The commentary from these commentators really slipped in Tokyo...talked about Sjostrom most the race (7th)...

Who felt torri huske was winning and she reached first,2nd or 3rd?
Great Canada,great Chinese
Maggie never consider herself as Mainland Chinese seriously
5:28 there is no way Emma mckeown touches in front of tori huske.
I’m a Brit so I’m neutral.. but wow
And now huske has redeemed herself... all the way to 1st!
