In the Chinese interviews and in an article with Denis Corterell, they both said he deliberately threw the 200m. To focus on the 100m events and relays. And Pan said he knows he won’t win against the 200m swimmers, so focus on the 100m. For the 100m prelim, he said he used Chalmers as a guide and didn’t realize Chalmers was swimming so slow
The main thing I was speculating on is why he would still swim the event in the first place, as opposed to declaring a false start or just not entering in the first place. But at least he didn’t just no show the event, that’s one of my biggest frustrations at high level meets when athletes do that and leave empty lanes.
@@TheSwimScribe I found an interview segment where he slightly touched on this matter, and my guess is that he's trying to get used to the shallow pool. Here is a rough translation from google translate: Q: Do you think the swimming pool at the Paris Olympics will have any impact on your performance? Pan: I think it's OK, no big impact, but this pool is shallow, the waves disappear slowly, it does have a little impact, especially in the relay. In the one-way, because I rushed out directly, I was always in the lead, so I didn't feel the waves. Then, in the events above 100 meters, I was in the 200 freestyle preliminaries, I was feeling the water there, I found that after 100 meters, there were waves when I turned around, and the waves were quite big, but it would have less impact on short-distance athletes like me.
@@maizie9454 different swimmers participating in different events were facing different levels of competitiveness and chose different racing strategies in response, why are you mixing it up just to disprove Pan? Ridiculous
Great video! Super excited to see what Pan can do next. Do you know who holds the most sub 47 second performances, individual and relay split combined?
For individual Pan has the most sub-47s so far with 5, while David Povici has 3. They were tied with 3 coming into the Paris Olympics. Then, Pan added two more sub-47s with a 46.92 for one of the relays as the leadoff leg and of course the WR 46.40. He also has the fastest relay freestyle split of 45.92 but legs not of the lead are not official, as they aren't coming off a flat start. Mark your calendar!
Pan Zhanle said in a TV interview that during the Olympics he was deliberately slighted by certain US and Australia swimmers. He channeled his anger into the final: beating them all made him very happy. He also mentioned to have been drug tested ~50 times the year before the Olympics. He said he used to feel his strokes were bad, but later he noticed that everyone else is even uglier. Overall, he is just a young man/boy speaking openly and care-free.
He's a straight-shooter (but also very funny with his dry humor, which I've been enjoying all the personal videos coming out of China's Olympians tour of Hong Kong and Macau). Asians have a reputation (at least here in the States) of being meek and submissive, so I am supportive of Pan calling out his peers of the disrespect (though I never condone fans going overboard with threats and harassment in response). Put them on notice he's not taking that stuff without a volley. Poor Zhang Yufei sensed that same contempt, which all things considered she handled it well (even if she did cry on the podium but it could be a mix of emotions) with her haul of 6 medals (the most overall total among swimmers!). A shame Qin let all the excessive testing, backdating to last year with 46 (which was nearly once a week when US and Aussie swimmers are barely poked and forced to pee on demand) and at the Olympics every single day in the morning at 6, get into his head. But at least he got it together for the medley relays.
A pity Qin was more badly affected by the drug testings conducted at time of the day that disrupted rest and training. He in my opinion is clearly a faster swimmer than Leon Marchand or Adam Peaty as seen during their respective breaststroke legs in the 4x100m medley final (57.98s vs 58.62s vs 58.16s).
@@jenjen789 Several of the Chinese swimmers developed at least a slight fever. Zhang Yufei had to deal with a fever and the onset of her period, while Pan mentioned he had a slight fever just before his 100 free final ( he felt so hot he skipped wearing his coat out in the intro).
Great vid bud! I dont know if I am tripping or I just remember correctly, but he would have missed semi at Olympics if he went 0.07s slower, not 0.02s as stated in the video at 11:49
@@TheSwimScribe Pan tried to save energy by pacing the Aussie, realizing that guy was too slow and had to speed up before the finish line, barely making semi.
Before 2023 world championship 400 medley relay Pan used 50-slow-50-fast strategy like other 100m sprinters. But in that 400 medley relay, he used 50-fast-50-keep-fast-as-possible-as-you-can strategy and went 46.62 split, which got attention by the coach team. After that, since 2023 Asian Games, Pan started to use the 50-fast-50-fast and trained around that strategy.
Maybe lack of long-form content. Yeah, nice history of Pan's progression and the guy has a good "radio" or announcer voice. Without double-checking this youtube creator's library, I think he should try interviewing some of the swimmers. Hunter Armstrong seems free with his time and he's very engaging in the interview (even asking thought-provoking questions himself). He's not short with his words either, so it's not pulling teeth with how some guests are not forthcoming.
Not sure but look at the World Cup recently it feels like he change back to long distance. Getting 400m/800m win make me not sure what to expect in 100
His sprint explosiveness still hasn’t fully returned. In an interview in Shanghai last week, he mentioned he's only had two weeks of structured training and has recovered to around 70-80%. He said he's fine with whatever the outcome of these competitions is. He said there's no need to worry，he'll gradually get back. The recovery process is gradual; he's focusing on rebuilding his aerobic capacity through competitions first.
You're going to have to wait for his 50m free, as he doesn't plan to train for it until he's bit older when he bulks up some. Foremost it's the 100m where he's likely shooting for a 45 time. I've come across comments that in his latest interview, he plans to expand distances into the 200m and maybe 400m. He should be able to master 200m, as his relay splits are 1:43 and his personal best for the individual may be 1:45 (off top of my head).
His next goal is to break Chalmers' short course world record for the 100m free. So keep an eye on that upcoming event in December. Then it's onto Singapore for the 2025 World Championship.
