4.56: The first night session ends with a minimum of bitterness in the mouth. Six out of seven Azzurri have worsened compared to yesterday but the bitterness mainly concerns the missed podium of Detti who really had a great opportunity but swam at his level this season, never really taken off for the Livorno player.
4.54: What a final of the day. Finally a chronometric confirmation at the height of an Olympic final. It is the price to pay for the requests of the munificent US TV but here the sport in general loses. The performances in the morning are not up to those of the canonical timetable. We saw today, we knew and we have had confirmation

4.00: A Detti who tried to compete as he knows but who did not have, as for the whole season, the right final rush. If it had been him, the real one, he would have won this race. It was the Olympic opportunity of his career and he did not take advantage of it, useless to go around it
3.58: Incredible gold for the Tunisian Hafnaoui with 3’43 ″ 36, second place for the Australian McLoughlin with 3’43 ″ 52, third place for the American Smith who closes in 3’43 ″ 94.
