Funny as I was coming here to post the same link. Good? Hmmm I donno.
"Sun Yang swam the first 1,400 meters of the race with a two-beat kick."
I'd rather call this dead wrong. Any time of the day I'd say, since I've never seen Sun relying on a 2bk.
If you can't even count up to 4....
"Overtaking strokes are relatively common in male distance freestylers. The inherent errors of motion and undesirable limitations of that stroking format could be argued as being the principal reason why the men's 1,500 m race has improved the least of all swimming races and strokes over the past decade (even despite the introduction of the performance-enhancing super suits)."
Yeah except that the second position at this race was won by a swimmer displaying an elevated stroke rate (no overtaking).
I should have said that the videos and still pictures are great and that the commentary is pure Rushell.
