Pan just saved energy for 100m free tomorrow and swam fast in first 100m as a pre-test. Final 50m today is 14.20+13.98. However, in Incheon, 400m final 50m is 13.27+12.31 and 800m final 50m is 13.27+12.53.
Hey, Xing, I just covered that before I saw your comment. Great thinking! But I could have spared myself typing out all those numbers if I had just piggybacked off of your comment from the get-go. He gave Duncan Scott a gift, while pushing him to score a British record.
Xingyi, did you use chatGPT for the English translations? For these English broadcast, you can spare yourself the extra work. Those English broadcasts have detectable closed captions/subtitles, so viewers can just toggle the "CC" for the subtitles, if need be. Granted, as I've noted, your subtitles are more visually friendly, as the background is transparent and letters are large enough to be read but they are not intrusive. Well, maybe during the short interview with Pan, we do need your translating help. I like that you do upload the English-narrated races, as the swimming commentator is insightful (and he seems to be a Pan fan, as well). Keep up the good work! (I'm also recommending your channel to others!)
Not only did he swim slower than his 400 in Incheon, but if you look over his 400 splits from this morning, he never truly accelerated as he did in the last 50 of the 400 at Incheon. Here are his splits (not copy-and-pasted but typing from memory, so numbers here and there may be off but should get the pattern): 11.44/13.33/13.67/13.95/13.75/13.79/13.64/13.77 (200m)/13.61/13.87/13.64/13.91/13.97/14.27/14.20/13.98 (400m) By comparison, his 400m splits for the last 200m in Incheon were: 13.86/13.83/13.85/13.94/13.77/13.91/13.27/12.31 (400m) You can see by the last 50m, he turned it up. But Singapore's 400m, he actually slowed down on the last 75m. Never pushed for warp speed. While I would reflexively think that being that far on the outside lane and on the right (where he swims on the home stretch, breathing to his left and out of sight of the leaders), he couldn't keep keep track, the splits data tell a different story that he wasn't really trying. (With that said, gotta give credit to Duncan that he did swim a good race with enough pacing to keep the lead after the first 50m. And I do think Duncan is a gracious winner ... and gracious loser - at least with Pan.) I think Pan is merely preparing himself for the long course 2025 World Championship. These short course World Cups are just fillers.
It should be noted that these short course World Cups are more ranked by points to distribute monetary prizes. They don't have the cachet as the World Championship medals. Even with the world records, it seems the World Championships > World Cup. But for a paycheck, it's not a bad day in the office to be in the top 3. I would imagine with all the sponsorships Pan is getting in such a large lucrative market as China (look at how quickly Marchand yielded to the Chinese bashing to make amends to Wang Shun's coach), the potential prize rewards from the World Cup are chump change.

What's good to see is both Pan and Duncan Scott are gracious winners AND gracious losers. Duncan was as engaging with Pan here when he won as when he lost in Incheon. And it goes unsaid that Pan is a modest person, who often downplays the performance of his wins (such as saying it's average except for his record-breaking swim in the Olympics). No matter how competitive an event, good sportsmanship shows a lot of character that extends into life itself.
No surprise Pan won 400 m and 800m free considering he was used to be a distance swimmer and won the Chinese national champion at 1500 m free when he was 14/15 back in 2019. It seems he’s been testing different strategies and events(400m, 800m, etc) to get more comfortable with the short course. For his recent win, he shortened his underwater kicks and leaned into his powerful, efficient stroke to take the 100m free race. Hopefully, he’ll continue to improve on turns and underwater kicks, with an eye on breaking the short-course world record someday.

He got bronze, this's already good, he cannot win everything...n he still young, barely a 20 yrs old, but i hope he can get something for next 100m
Silver,still good

Amazing for a sprinter to get on the 400m podium
Pan Zhanle doesn't seem to be giving his all, hmmm!!!

Why brits & US no change into purple, here😂
With regard to Pan, well you win some and you lose some.
With regard to Duncan Scott, well you lose some and you win some.
That’s racing.

And it goes unsaid that Pan is a modest person, who often downplays the performance of his wins (such as saying it's average except for his record-breaking swim in the Olympics).

He accidentally got a gold medal in 400M free style in South Korea last week and this time no more accident in Singapore!
