Japanese swimming championship.

In the women's 50-meter freestyle semi-final, Rikako Ikee got off at a stretch after cutting 25 meters and getting on the speed.

Finished in 1st place with a dangerous race, and set a new student record of 24.87.



After returning to the competition, he updated his personal best at 0.04 and advanced to the final on the 10th in 1st place overall.

In a situation where my physical strength was not fully restored, I thought that I would be quite tired today, but I was not as tired as I expected. Of course, my body was tired. I'm still moving, but the feeling of swimming is amazing. "

On the 10th, the final day of the Games, in addition to the 50m freestyle final, we will also participate in the 50m butterfly, which is not an Olympic event.



As Ikee saw the four crowns following the 2018 Japan Championship, which he participated in last time, he was enthusiastic, saying, "I just have fun and go for the win. Finally, I want to finish the Japan Championship in a good way."
