New Olympic Records in women's 100m backstroke
Over in the pool, Canadian Kylie Masse has broken the Olympic Record in winning Heat 4 of the women's 100 back.
She clocks 58.17 to break Emily Seebohm's mark (58.23) from London 2012.
I get the feeling that will be broken a couple more times before the final.
On to Heat 5, where we find Regan Smith (USA).
And, as expected, she does lower Masse's mark. By a lot. 57.96 – the first woman under 58 seconds at an Olympic Games.
Finally, Heat 6, where we have current world record holder Kaylee McKeown. She set the record at Australian trials in June.
And she, too, lowers the Olympic Record! 57.88 will be the new benchmark heading into the semis.
