Olympic swimming champion Caeleb Dressel notched fast swims at the Mission Pro Swim, signaling he is on course for a great U.S. Olympic Trials in June:
Dressel Mission Pro Swim Times:
- 50 free - 21.83
- 100 free - 48.82 (prelim swim, scratched the final to fly home early)
- 200 free - 1:47.57
- 100 fly - 51.61
In this interview Caeleb is his own worst critic, recapping his entire season. He also sheds some light on the pressures of being a swim star on run-up to the Olympic summer.
PREDICTIONS FOR U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS, VERSION TWO
Yes, I am playing the Dressel prediction game again. I was way too safe last time. See version one of my predictions:
- 50 free - 21 point 3
- 100 free - 47 point 2
- 100 fly - 49 point 9
- 200 free - prelims one - 1, 45 point 9
See my new predictions after seeing Dressel's Mission Pro Swim races, and being heckled by SwimSwam commenters for being a wimp:
- 50 free - 21 point 1
- 100 free - 47 point 1
- 100 fly - 49 point 7
- 200 free - prelims only - 1, 45 point 2
But who cares what I think? It is all about what you think. Give me your best swimming analysis.
