Reported by Reid Carlson.
The London Roar swam well on day 1 of Match 6 and led the Cali Condors by 13.5 points going into the second day of racing. The return of stars including Emma McKeon and Kyle Chalmers gave the Roar a boost in events that the Cali Condors might otherwise be favorited in, namely sprint free and fly. Chalmers, however, was relay-only for London today, but still contributed a big 45+ relay anchor to lead a 1-2 finish for the Roar. London ultimately went on to win the match, beating the favorite Cali Condors.
So did Kyle Chalmers literally go from like 8th place to 1st in that mixed relay ?
Yes, he was the only male freestyler
yes, was more than 6s down and overtook all the females, won by 0.9s over 2nd placed London #2
Sounds like Chalmers…he virtually came from last to first to win in Rio!
His surname is Higson, not Hixon
