Swimmer from Cayman Islands ? It's not attractive to swimming fans. FINA often sends some discount quotas to players from second-developed swimming countries and regions so that they can enjoy the World Championships as well. It's purely satisfying, don't even think about reaching the finals, don't even think about reaching the semi-finals.
But this short pool World Championships, Jordan Crox from the Cayman Islands is eye-opening, he is a native of Cayman Islands. In the men's 100m freestyle preliminaries, he swam for 45 seconds and 61 seconds and ranked first, and in the semi-finals, he swam for 45 seconds and 55 seconds and continued to rank first. These are two high-end records that can break through 950 points.
finals Crox may have wanted to win too much, so he advanced at the extreme speed and ranked first in the first 75 meters. But this made him lose his energy quickly, and finally tied for sixth with Chinese player Pan Zhanle with a time of 45.77 seconds.
20-year-old Crox is now studying in the United States. His grades have improved to this point, except that he is indeed talented, and it is obviously inseparable from the guidance of American universities. But at the World Championship level, he is as amazing as what pops out of a crack in a stone.
The athlete interface of the official website of the FINA, the photos of the contestants given during live TV, Crox still looks like a child, but this is actually a photo of him at the age of 12.
FINA probably thinks he can't swim into anything, and he doesn't have a chance to show it, so he doesn't mind this 12-year-old photo being kept there. But now he has achieved results and has reached the semi-finals and finals, which is a bit embarrassing.
