THE SWIMMING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS MEDAL TABLE
3.16: Nicolò Martinenghi returns to the pool who is vice world champion and reigning European champion of the 50m breaststroke.

3.13: The only major summer event of a year continues, 2023, a “crushed” transition between 2022 full of events and a 2024 even clogged with a World Cup, a European championship and an upcoming Olympics.

Hello and welcome to the LIVE LIVE of the third day of competitions of the 2023 World Championships in long course swimming at the Fukuoka Convention Center in Fukuoka in Japan. The only major summer event of a year continues, 2023, of transition “crushed” between 2022 full of events and a 2024 even clogged with a World Cup, a European championship and an upcoming Olympics. Once again the Italian team was among the protagonists of the first two days with three medals won, Ceccon’s gold in the 50m-butterfly and Martinenghi’s silver in the 100m-breaststroke and 4×100m freestyle.
Nicolò Martinenghi returns to the pool and is vice world champion and reigning European champion of the 50m breaststroke. The blue is aiming for the maximum but once again he will have to deal with the Chinese Qin Hayiang and Jiajun Sun, as well as with the Brazilian Joao Gomes and especially with the outgoing world champion Nic Fink. Italy has a second medal card in this race which is Simone Cerasuolo, young man from Imola, pupil of Fabio Scozzoli, fifth a year ago in Budapest and second at the European Championships in Rome. There are no blue girls and it always sounds strange, at the start of the heats of the women’s 200m freestyle which promises to be one of the most interesting races of the World Championship. Australia wants to get back on the top step of the podium in this race and will try last year’s silver Mollie O’Culligan which has the best weather of the season but also Ariarne Titmus has what it takes to be competitive. In US files there will be no Katie Ledecky but Claire Weinstein and Bella Sims but maybe for the medals you have to look elsewhere: in Canada where Summer McIntosh can play the part of the absolute protagonist or in Hong Kong with a Siobhan Haughey who showed Rome what she’s worth and then there’s the reigning champion, the Chinese Yaxin Liu which can have its say in a panorama that is certainly busier than a year ago.
Two Azzurri chasing the final in the 200m-butterfly, the Olympic bronze medalist Federico Burdisso and Alberto Razzetti who was short course world champion in this race. The ruler of recent seasons is missing, the Hungarian Milak who gave up a month ago and therefore apparently green light for the Frenchman Leon Marchand who wants to take everything. Beware of the Swiss Noè Ponti and the American Foster that can be inserted into the fight for the medal. At the end of the morning there is the debut in the tank of Gregorio Paltrinieri which will be at the start of one last battery of the 800 style that it resembles a final given that on its sides there will be Mykhailo Romanchuk, the Olympic champion Bobby Finke and the revelation of the season, the Irishman Daniel Wiffen. Florian Wellbrock he’s at the start in the previous heat together with the Australians Short and Winnington and compatriot Martens. For Italy in the tank too Luca De Tullius who will try to do well and maybe improve.
Five titles are assigned in the afternoon session. It starts from the 200m freestyle with the reigning world champion, the Romanian David Popovici will try to give an encore but will have to deal above all with the Korean Hwang who can shuffle the cards with his starts or crazy accelerations and with the British couple Dean and Richards who have the Olympic medal around their necks and want to prove that they are still big names in the discipline. Simona Quadarella tries to get back on the podium of that 1500 freestyle of which she was also world champion. It won’t be easy because there’s no shortage of rivals but this Quadarella, the one admired this year since Riccione, has what it takes to fetch another important medal in a legendary career. Katie Ledecky on paper she has no rivals and Pallister should be the blue’s number one opponent.
Regan Smith, Emma McKeown, Kylie Masse, Susanna Bwerkoff are the pretenders to the throne of the women’s 100m backstroke who herald a great show but the show is also guaranteed in the final of the men’s 100m backstroke with Thomas Ceccon trying to repeat the success obtained yesterday. The opponent, perhaps the only one for the blue, is the Chinese Jayu Liu who impressed yesterday in the semifinals. The last final of the day is another race that promises entertainment even if there are no Italians at the start: the women’s 100m breaststroke with Ruta Meylutyte in the assault for gold and Lilli King’s world record who is her antagonist, it is not known how prompt and ready she is.
