MEN’s 100 BUTTERFLY – SEMI-FINALS

World Record: 49.45 – Caeleb Dressel (USA), 2021 Commonwealth Record: 49.99 – Josh Liendo (CAN), 2024 Commonwealth Games Record: 50.65 – Chad le Clos (RSA), 2018 2022 Champion – Josh Liendo (CAN) – 51.24

Top 8:

Matt Temple (AUS) – 50.63 *Commonwealth Games Record* Josh Liendo (CAN) – 50.67 Ed Mildred (ENG) – 51.30 Ben Armbruster (AUS) – 51.32 Harrison Turner (AUS) – 51.69 Lewis Fraser (WAL) – 52.08 Jacob Peters (ENG) – 52.26 Chad le Clos (RSA) – 52.35

Temple came in just two hundredths under Chad le Clos‘ 2018 Games record time of 50.65, and four hundredths ahead of canada’s Josh Liendo, who stopped the clock in 50.67.

Temple’s lifetime best in the event is 50.45 from June of 2021, but he has been 50.60 this season at the 2026 Australian Trials.

Old Record — 50.65, Chad le Clos (2018) New Record — 50.63, Matt Temple (2026) 50 23.70 23.64 100 26.95 26.99

Former record holder, Le Clos, finished 8th in the semifinal, stopping the clock in 52.35 to squeak into tomorrow’s event final.

Tomorrow’s final will be a close race between Temple and Commonwealth record holder Liendo, and it will likely take another Commonwealth Games record to win.
