      Summer Macintosh of Canada was 14 at the tokyo olympics. Didn’t win a medal though :( almost got bronze in the women’s 400m free with Katie ledecky and Ariarne titmus but bingjie Li of China pipped her to get the bronze in the last 50

    Breaststroke is the only stroke that height doesn't play a big role. Congrats to her.

      Thats not true... if you are higher than your opponents you can make more distance per stroke them then, so if you would have to swimmers with exactly the same stroke frequency and the same power, the one with the longer arms and legs (so usually the higher one) would easily win.

      @@swimmingcoach1405 You clearly aren’t a breastroke coach. Firstly, breastroke RD are often the shortest out of al the strokes, especially considering a 14 year old was able to win the Olympics in it. Secondly, being taller creates more drag in breastroke, giving taller people a disadvantage in it.

    • @swimmingcoach1405

      @@alexsinnett6123 thats not true. Just take a look at the best breaststrokers in the world at the moment. Adam Peaty (1,91m), iyla symanovich (1,94m), Emre Sakci (2,04m), Lilly King (1,75m) lydia jacoby (1,82m), Tatjana Schoenemaker (1,74m). If you would be right with your argument, the best breaststrokers would be a lot smaller. How could the best breaststroker of all time be 1,91m on the mans sight and on the women’s sight 1,75m? Also if you take a look at the Olympic winners you won’t find anyone else who won this event who is so small. That happened only ones. Also consider that she was a big talent, and by far not at the top of her career, so she would have got so much better when she became older and full grown if she could have been dealing with the pressure and wouldn’t have stopped with swimming at a high level. Compare her to Michael Phelps at the age of 15. He wasn’t full grown and trained as well and improved so much. But she was even more talented because she won at the age of 14 Phelps got 5th at the age of 15. She didn’t won this race because of the fact that she was small but because of her talent, technical skills (that was much better than the technic of her opponents), her crazy endurance (she had a crazy fast second race half), and also because of her strategy. In the 200m Breaststroke it’s much better to go out not so fast and come home fast (just look at the world records from Krill Prigoda, and Tatjana Schoenemaker) and take a look at the 200 Breaststroke this year where Arno Kmminga and Lilly King took it out so fast but got beaten in the last 50. She did literally everything right in this race, so don’t say that she won because she was small. Also read my first comment then you see that this doesn’t makes any sense🤦‍♂️.

      @@eirikhagen2845 Yes i agree with that swimmers are tall in general. I think breaststroke is all about momentum ands small technical details so yes it might matter the least how high you are in breaststroke, but as in every other swimming stroke it is als better in breaststroke if you are tall then if you aren’t. (So it is clearly an advantage to be tall in swimming, it doesn’t matter in wich stroke)
