Women;s backstorke

[Steve]

Just finished watching this morning's heats, and wondered if anyone else is surprised and confused as to why the women's 50 and 200 backstroke finals are in the same session? Strikes me as a big error, that will probably give those swimmers swimming in both (i.e. Sarah Price most imporatntly ;) ) a big disadvantage.

Also many congratulations to the Isle of Man's Ian Sharpe, (who swims for Cambridge :D) on making the multi disability 100m freestyle final tonight :)

Isn't Sarah's main challenger swimming both as well though? If anything, I see that as probably an advantage for 'Super Sarah'. (God, I hate hearing her called that, has anyone got any better suggestions?)

Okay, I'm wrong; Calub isn't doing the 200m. Seriously though, can any of you see anyone beating Sarah the form she's in at the moment?

England 1-2-3 I think, who cares about the order.

Want to talk about good form? What about Rebecca Cooke's 800 Free, and now is the top seed in the 400. Could she be the next Sarah Hardcastle?

[BigFish]

No, but she *is* the first Rebecca Cooke!

Well done Sarah Price, Jo Fargus and Katie Sexton!! The English really showed them tonight! :D :)
