  The World Swimming Championships was once held every four years, but it has been changed to biennial in the past 20 years, and it has become "annual" since 2021. Affected by the epidemic, the Fukuoka World Championships in 2021 was postponed twice after the Tokyo Olympic Games, and was finally held in July 2023. Budapest filled the "vacancy" in 2022. The Doha World Championships originally scheduled to be held in 2023 was "squeezed" to the beginning of 2024, making the swimming world championships held in the same year as the Olympic Games for the first time. Singapore, the host of the 2025 World Championships, was already in place, which led to the four consecutive years from 2022 to 2025.

  There are six major events in this World Championships: diving, synchronized swimming, open water swimming, water polo, swimming and high platform diving. Among them, diving, synchronized swimming, open water swimming and water polo are all Olympic qualifying events. Only swimming events do not have this sense of urgency, because it determines the Olympic qualification based on whether the results meet the standards.

  For swimmers, it is easy to reach the standard, so they give up the World Championships in Doha one after another and focus on the Olympic Games. The Doha swimming pool is slightly lacking in star flavor. China also hid Olympic champions Zhang Yufei, Wang Shun, Ye Shiwen and the new "Frog King" Qin Haiyang, and Li Bingjie was the only Olympic champion for China to swim in Doha. This also gives China’s young swimmers a chance to emerge: Pan Zhanle will attack the highest podium in the men’s 100m freestyle; Dong Zhihao has medal strength in the men’s 200m breaststroke; Zhang Zhanshuo, a 16-year-old teenager, will usher in the first adult international competition and participate in five individual competitions; Yu Yiting will perform a world-class performance in the women’s 200m medley.

  Looking at foreign famous players, American Olympic champions Ledecki, Dressel, Regan Smith, lily king and others will be absent; Canadian Olympic champion McNeil and rising star McIntosh will not play; The Australian team has 18 participants, and the women’s team has almost no famous players; Romanian short-distance freestyle star Popovich is not on the list; The Japanese team only sent 12 people to participate.

  In diving events, foreign athletes need to compete for Olympic qualifications. The main force of the China diving team, which has won the full quota, will all participate. Gemini Chen Yuxi and Quan Hongchan will once again conquer the world with the "water spray disappearance"; In addition, Cao Yuan, a three-dynasty Olympic champion who returned from injury, and Xie Si-dai, a men’s 3m springboard champion who returned from Tokyo Olympic Games last year, attracted special attention. Huang Jianjie, who is under 14 years old, is the only non-world champion and the youngest player in the team.

  In synchronized swimming, China secured a seat in Paris with the doubles and team events champions of the Hangzhou Asian Games. This time, it will participate in all 11 events of the World Championships for the first time, and Yang Shuncheng, a teenager from Beijing, will make his debut in the men’s singles competition for the first time. The new synchronized swimming rules were implemented last year. China won 3 gold medals, 1 silver and 1 bronze in Fukuoka, and will continue to meet the challenge of bidding for the Paris Olympic Games in Doha this time. Bill may, the 45-year-old godfather of American synchronized swimming, will also appear in Doha. He said that it is his greatest wish to win the qualification for the Paris Olympic Games and stand on the Olympic Games.

Advantages and disadvantages of the four strokes (technical flow angle)

In this article, we will objectively evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the four major strokes and the four most basic strokes. As a swimmer, relevant knowledge will help you to understand swimming more deeply and make swimming and body and mind combine perfectly.

breaststroke


Breaststroke is generally one of the first strokes that beginners come into contact with. Modern breaststroke has developed into whip breaststroke leg, and the breaststroke swimmer has also been broken down into several action stages, namely, returning the arm, sliding, paddling, chest and hand, all of which are done underwater or near the surface.

The advantage of breaststroke is that the head can easily get out of the water, the front vision is not affected, and there is no big breathing problem. Another advantage is that the hands and legs of breaststroke move synchronously in the same symmetry, which is also beneficial for beginners to master the initial movements, so breaststroke is easier to learn from all strokes.

The main disadvantage of breaststroke is that it is slower than other strokes and less efficient.

backstroke


Backstroke is the easiest stroke to learn after breaststroke. Backstroke, as its name implies, is swimming on the back, and backstroke leg is also a kind of whipping leg, and it should be whipped up and down alternately.

The hands of the backstroker swing like a windmill in turn. After the straight arm comes out from the hip, the straight arm moves to the top of the head to enter the water, and then grabs, pulls and pushes the water to the hip for one cycle.

The advantage of backstroke is that once the backstroke is well balanced, breathing is not a problem at all, and it is more efficient than breaststroke, and it can also do long-distance backstroke, and it can be used as an auxiliary treatment stroke for patients with low back diseases.

Backstroke also has disadvantages. The speed of backstroke is not as fast as freestyle and butterfly. For beginners, it is not easy to master the balance of backstroke. Therefore, the nose will often get water and choke, and for beginners, swimming will be very uncomfortable because they can’t look forward.

freestyle


Freestyle requires swimmers to lie prone, and the leg movements are the same as backstroke legs, which are also whipping legs, and they should be whipped up and down in a cross way. The hand movements require that the arm should be pulled back from near the thigh and head into the water, and then the water should be scratched and pushed to the thigh and then returned to the arm.

The advantage of freestyle is clearly that it is fast. Freestyle is the fastest and most effective stroke, and it is also the fastest stroke in competitive competitions, and it is also the favorite stroke of long-distance swimmers in recent years. Freestyle can achieve the minimum physical consumption for long-distance swimming.

The disadvantage of freestyle is that the face must be underwater for a long time and vertically downward, which requires turning your head when breathing. The coordination of breathing and body swimming in freestyle makes it one of the more difficult swimming postures to master.

butterfly stroke


Butterfly stroke is the most beautiful and difficult stroke among the four strokes. Butterfly stroke requires the body to do wave-like movements like dolphins, that is, whip the whole body. The underwater movement of the arm is actually similar to the front of freestyle, except that the hands are synchronized, and the water is thrown in front of the water after being pulled under the hips.

The advantage of butterfly stroke is that it is fast. Apart from freestyle, butterfly stroke is a relatively fast stroke, which is faster than breaststroke and backstroke. Another advantage is that it looks good and fun because of its unique dolphin-like body fluctuation.

However, one disadvantage of butterfly stroke is that it consumes too much and is not suitable for long-distance swimming. Another disadvantage is that it is not easy to learn, because butterfly stroke requires difficult body wave movements and the timing of arm ejection is not easy to grasp.

The technical advantages and disadvantages of the four strokes are briefly analyzed, which helps beginners to understand swimming and enhance their curiosity, and also helps swimmers to learn more about swimming. Help all people who love swimming to explain the problems encountered in swimming.
