Welcome to day 4 of the 2025 World Junior Championships! After last night’s action which was incredible, featuring a World Junior Record and a few Championship Records, we’re in the for the shortest prelims session yet. There are only 6 events this morning, and 2 of them are 50s. Let’s take a look at this morning’s lineup.
DAY 4 PRELIMS SCHEDULE:
Girls 50 Backstroke Boys 50 Butterfly Girls 400 Freestyle Boys 200 Breaststroke Girls 200 IM Boys 4×200 Freestyle RelayAmerican Charlotte Crush will be back in action in the girls 50 back this morning. Crush has already won gold in the 100 back this week and earned silver in the 200 back last night, so she enters the event with a lot of momentum. However, it’s South Korea’s Kim Seungwon who comes in as the top seed in the 50 back this morning.
Following the girls 50 back, Great Britain’s Dean Fearn will be up in the boys 50 fly. Fearn comes into the meet as the top seed, boasting a very impressive career best of 23.29. His time comes in 0.33 seconds off the World Junior Record, which is held by Portugal’s Diogo Ribeiro.
China’s Yang Peiqi enters the girls 400 free as the top seed by a wide margin. Yang’s personal best of 4:02.53 is well under the Championship Record of 4:05.42. Of note, NAB’s Sofia Diakova comes in with a 4:05.16, which is also under the Championship Record.
Japan’s Shin Ohashi comes in as the #2 seed in the boys 200 breast this morning despite being the World Junior Record holder in the event. Ohashi is entered with a 2:08.89, however, his personal best of 2:06.91 stands as the WJR in the event. Great Britain’s Filip Nowacki comes in as the top seed this morning with his personal mark of 2:08.32. While that would make Ohashi the favorite in this event, it’s worth noting that Ohashi is also the WJR holder in the 100 breast, yet Nowacki already bested Ohashi head-to-head in that event earlier this week.
After having won the girls 200 fly and 200 back this week, American Audrey Derivaux comes in as the top seed in the girls 200 IM.
