Welcome to day 2 of the 2025 US Open. After kicking-off the meet with the distance events last night, the races will shift to some shorter distances this morning. This morning’s event slate will feature three of the four 50 events on the schedule, with the 50 backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle, alongside the 200 IM and 400 Freestyle.
We’ll be getting a first look at several top names this morning, including World Record holder Summer McIntosh in her signature 400 freestyle event. McIntosh will hold down heat 4, lane 4 in the event, holding the top entry time by over 10 seconds. While McIntosh won’t swim the 200 IM due to its close proximity to the 400 free, Americans Alex Walsh and Kate Douglass are both slated to compete. Walsh comes in with the top seed in 2:08.45, while Douglass is entered with an SCY time and will race in heat 1.
Douglass will also make an appearance in the 50 freestyle to close out the session, alongside Gretchen Walsh. The younger of the two Walsh sisters, Gretchen holds the top seed in a time of 23.91, while Douglass is right on her tail with a 24.04 entry time. While the two will race in separate heats this morning, they will almost certainly clash in finals.
On the men’s side, Leon Marchand is notably forgoing the 200 IM to contest the 400 freestyle, where he enters as the 6th seed in a time of 3:48.62. In his absence, Texas teammate Hubert Kos will hold down the fort in the 200 IM, with the top seeded time of 1:55.34. Kos will also race the 50 backstroke, with Shaine Casas leading that field. Casas is entered with a 24.23 to hold the top time, while Kos is just behind in 24.50.
The men’s 50 freestyle is perhaps one of the most exciting events on the entire slate, featuring a lineup of some of the top athletes globally over the last 5 years, including Jack Alexy, Chris Guiliano, Michael Andrew, Hunter Armstrong, Santo Condorelli, Matt King, and Caeleb Dressel, with several other names also thrown into the excitement.
