Short gets the win over Winnington in the 400 free. Some statement that after his Paris disappointment. Out hard and hung on. 3:41.03 to 3:43.99.

Boom. Lani Pallister in the sub four club, going 3:59.72 to take out women's 400m free. Being cheered on by her new coach Dean Boxall, with Ariarne Titmus only a few metres away on comms for Nine.

Titmus on @wwos when asked about McIntosh taking her 400 free world record. "Obviously it stings a little bit when you get your world record broken but I know how tough it is to swim that fast."

Why Cam McEvoy is no guarantee to race at the world champs this year. He also could have a lighter 2026. https://t.co/Sk0wUpi5tV

Confirmed by Swimming Aus: "McKeown, the world record holder, was DQ'd after being ruled to initiate an early start from lane four of heat one but her protest was upheld after officials ruled in her favour that she was distracted by a movement immediately prior to the signal."

Am told the official line will be that it was deemed McKeown was distracted by something as she was about to take off from the blocks. Don't see that every day 👀

Kaylee McKeown has been reinstated to the 50m back final tonight (10.27pm AEST). Protest upheld. Little bit of drama for the morning!

Sammy Short rips a 3:43.21 in heats in the 400 free. His fastest time this year. Looked very good. For context, he went 3:42.44 in heats at 2023 worlds and clocked 3:40.68 that night to win gold. Should be a cracking race vs Winnington tonight on @wwos https://t.co/BmCtYHbYzz

McIntosh under world record pace in 800 free for a fair bit of that final but just misses Ledecky's record. Clocks 8:05.07. Ledecky's WR is 8:04.12.
