Video evidence proves Aussie superstar was robbed
A new video suggests a second US swimmer should have been disqualified in the women’s 200m individual medley – a race in which Aussie Kaylee McKeown was bumped up to bronze.
Mckeown told Nine after the race she was proud to have just made the final, where she raced from a difficult position in lane one.“It gave me the opportunity to just race my own race tonight – but it did suck a little bit because I breathe to the other side, so I couldn’t really see the other girls,” she said.“I didn’t think I would be able to do that. I’m just proud of myself for adding to my event list.
“I’ve got the best coach in the world … he sat me down and told me to put my balls on the line and I feel like I’ve done that.”The Queenslander was herself denied a spot in the individual medley final at last year’s world championships in Fukuoka for performing a similar turn to Walsh.
