What impresses you most about Sarah Sjöström?
- Considering that she ran a very tough program.
She does her 20th race and puts personal best on it.
It is very impressive, says Lars Frölander.
- That she manages to keep it together all the time.
She swims better and better throughout the championship and in the end she had a much better tactic on how to get to the final.
I think she needed to take it a little calmer in the morning, and she did the last races and did not go on too much on the trials.
She grew all the way through the championship.
In December, it's time for a new championship as the short track world championship awaits. A competition that SVT broadcasts. How are Sjöström's times from the European Championships then?
- It is clear that it will be a little tougher, especially on the longer distances.
At 50, she now shows that she is one of the absolute best.
But on 100 butterfly and 100 freestyle, there will be tougher resistance.
There is above all Louise Hansson who will be perhaps the toughest opponent.
"Her future looks bright"
Erik Persson impressed in Kazan in both 100 and 200 meters breaststroke. What are his chances at the World Cup?
- It looks good.
They will be the same guys at the World Cup.
A meager tenth from winning a medal here and there, he did not have the best finish.
- Erik is very strong at the end of the race.
He is also good at managing the races.
He knows exactly how to set it up to get everything he has in his body.
If you have to say a weakness, it's the underwater part, but he has gotten much better there.
Emelie Fast made her international breakthrough during the European Championships. What do you think about her future?
- Her future looks very bright.
She is only 17 years old.
It will be interesting to follow her development.
She has good conditions.
The feeling is that she is very mature and swims very well.
She has already shown now that she is a championship swimmer and can pick it up when needed.
