Men's 800m Free and Women's 1500m Free will be contested in Tokyo as the Mixed Relays (Medley and Free)
Last session of finals saw Caeleb Dressel got his seventh gold medal of the meet and crowned him as the best male swimmer of the championships, Sarah Sjostrom who won the 50 free just shy of the World Record was named the best female swimmer; Dressel and Sjostrom won the 50 Free and 100 Butterfly to mention and could have won the same events but the swede was second in the 100 Free
Camille Lacourt of France took the Men's 50m Backstroke, lone gold for the french who had a poor showing, I agree that they and australians are in the mid of a change of guard between swimmers who aged and newcomers that might show their potential coming 2019 Worlds and Tokyo 2020
The chinese and russians showed very promising talent and made the US work for some titles, look at their relays and freestyle teenagers in the womens side in the case of China. In 2020 Sun Yang would probably be in the dawn of his career but guy knows how to win. Russia proved they have a lot of talent spread all over their team, for me they had a great meet after the Rio Ban and even a better championships that those in home soil in 2015.
Japan was also a bit of a letdown with pre-favourites Rikako Ikee and Kosuke Hagino giving a very modest showing. We will see their real level of competitive form in 2019 preparing for the home Olympics.
Germany with just one silver medal, who would have thought some years ago?
A good World Championships meet, with high level and swimmers emerging and confirming their status
I was glad Lilly King and Efimova said something to each other at the end of the 50 Breaststroke
Chase Kalisz taking the 400m Medley with a Championship Record and doing the 200/400, good for him who looked the strongest of them all in the medleys.
Katinka Hosszu did the 200/400 golden for a third World championships in a row and add the Olympic double in 2016, impressive record on this event, so dominant and indeed the best all time for the Medleys
