The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, on 28 June 1914, set in train a series of diplomatic events that led inexorably to the outbreak of war in Europe at the end of July 1914.
Not many people whose lives overlapped the Archduke's participating this year. But you got to give Jean-Jacques credit.
He even seems to have won a sponsorship from Gray Poupon.
he is so fast
ande
Coachvlad brought his A-game.

I think more people are watching and cheering on M. Storz than any other swimmer here. He uses sort of a modified sidestroke and only recovers one arm over the water.
FINAL MEDAL COUNT (unofficially including relays and open water):
According to my math, here's the final medal count for USMS Swimmers at Worlds:
1st Place: 34
2nd Place: 31
3rd Place: 26
4-10th: 196
Total Medals: 287 Medals!
Along the way, American swimmers set 8 World Records and 16 Championship Records.
From what I could tell, even those who didn't medal had some great swims and lots of time improvement.
For me, it was a great week, and I really enjoyed meeting everyone!

:applaud: Congratulations to you and all of the USMS swimmers for their great success! Most importantly, you enjoyed it! Awesome!! :agree:
I'm finally back. The meet went well for me in terms of placement. I was top ten in four of my five events. In terms of times it was so-so. I never really felt good in the water. I'm sure some of it was the new suit rule, but I think I just didn't hit my taper quite right. I guess you can't have a great meet every time.
More importantly my wife and I had a great time in Sweden. We pretty much ran ourselves ragged outside the pool. I'm sure that wasn't the preferred method for swimming fast, but oh well, there was lots to see!
