Aquabullet - you're right. Soni isn't racing right now. It seems likely Soni would beat Breeja in the 200 but the 100 might be even today.
I do not think Hardy will ever beat Breeja in the 100 in a race that counts. Hardy's WR was 4 years ago and she hasn't really been close. Breeja is still inexperienced long course and I think she is still figuring out the pacing.
Adams and McElhany both swam the 200 IM today. McElhany was not fast but we know she has been sick. She continues to lose almost 1/2 body length off the start - her underwater race needs work. Adams' 200 IM looked like a going-through-the-motions race.
