Really enjoying the swimming content. Respect to Canada and CBC

[@steve-from-toronto]

From Olympic gold to can’t even qualify. Almost a second slower than her winning time in 2016. Shows how brutal swimming is. And she’s still only 23.

[@demmerforvezina]

The olympic standard in this event is very brutal.

[@villanueva2189]

Did she qualify for an individual 100m free for Paris?

[@FourSeasons04]

No, she missed it by .05 sec. She does qualify for the relay.

[@CBCSports]

Unfortunately no, she just narrowly missed out on the Olympic Qualifying Time.

[@ratking8992]

If she had a qualifying time within the last year, she could qualify

[@creaturesims8878]

Is there not another oppurtunity to qualify?

[@boomds5602]

@@ratking8992 she doesn’t have one

[@TeaganDesousa]

I could be wrong, but isn't she injured?
