Women's 100m Breaststroke - Final
Lilly King handled business and Lydia Jacoby made her mark in the final of the women’s 100m breaststroke.
King is headed to her second Olympic Games in her signature event. The 24-year-old Indiana native outpaced the field in the women’s 100 breast, finishing in a time of 1:04.79. She’ll hope to defend her Rio 2016 gold medal in Tokyo.
That was expected. Jacoby setting the second-fastest mark in the world of 2021 at 1:05.28, was not. The 17-year old accomplished the feat and likely punched her ticket to Tokyo despite King’s attempts at throwing her off track, something King is always known to try.
“I kinda tried to mess with her in the ready room but she wasn’t having it,” King half-joked.
Jacoby is all but guaranteed to become the first Olympic swimmer in history from the state of Alaska.
Annie Lazor, the second-fastest in Monday’s semifinals, missed out on the Olympic positions by 0.32.
