SMH: World Aquatics Has Formally Requested Addition of 50m Stroke Events for the Olympics
By Braden Keith on SwimSwam Tom Decent of the Sydney Morning Herald says that World Aquatics has formally requested the addition of the 50m fly, 50m back, and 50m breast to the schedule for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, citing anonymous sources. The events are present at the World Aquatics Championships, the (typically) every-other year, multi-discipline aquatics event. The only 50 meter race at the Olympics, though, is the 50 freestyle. Adding more events to swimming, which already has 37 medal events including the men’s 800 free and women’s 1500 free that were added in Tokyo, adds extra complications. Beside critiques about ‘medal inflation,’ the Olympics already had an issue in 2024
