Olympic gold medalist Michael Andrew notched multiple wins at the Fort Lauderdale Pro Swim. The 23 year old swim-pro said he’s been training consistently. We’ve pushed him a lot on his lineup, specifically asking whether or not he’ll swim 200 IM this summer or at U.S. Olympic Trials. We can’t confirm it, but it sounds like 200 IM is off the table this year, but a real option in June 2024.
Michael Andrew 2023 World Champs (and 2024 U.S. Olympic Trials) predictions!
These are general shout into the wind predictions because we’ve been reporting on Michael since he was 9 years old.
At the 2023 World Championships Michael gets on the podium in the 50 fee and 100 breast, because he can…if he does the work.
50 fly and 50 breast at World Championships? I know Michael cares, and fans care, but I don’t because you can’t win Olympic hardware in those events. You should be able to, but the lords of swimming governance want to continue to make swim-entertainment elusive.
2024 US Olympic Trials? The world thinks Michael’s 200 IM is off the table, but Michael rallies, make an eye-popping star turn, making all U.S. competitors chase on him on that final lap–but it won’t be enough. Michael touches in 1:54.8. And 30,000 fans lose their minds.
But who cares what I think. It’s all about what you think. Drop your comment below.
