"Going into previous meets, I was just so nervous all the time and worrying," she said. O'Callaghan said that her teammates had made the experience "so much easier". It was O'Callaghan's fourth gold of the competition, having also been part of Australia's title-winning women's 4x100m and 4x200m freestyle relay teams.īoth of those titles were won in world record times. "There are no words to explain it - I'm just so thrilled," she added. "I didn't even know that no woman had done that, and to be the first is just incredible," she said. The 19-year-old O'Callaghan claimed the 200m title earlier in the week in a world record time and she said it was "such a weird feeling" to complete the double.
O'Callaghan touched the wall in 52.16sec to defend her 100m freestyle title, beating Hong Kong's Siobhan Haughey on 52.49 and Marrit Steenbergen of the Netherlands on 52.71. "I will hang the medals on the wall and start a new challenge." "When I finished the race, that was the end of it - now everything starts again with a new beginning," he said. Qin is aiming to cement his new status at next year's Paris Olympics and he said he was "ready for a new future". Qin has taken over the mantle as breaststroke king in the absence of Britain's Adam Peaty, who is not competing in Fukuoka as he focuses on his mental health. South Africa's Olympic champion Tatjana Schoenmaker added the world title in the women's 200m breaststroke, while Hungary's Hubert Kos claimed gold in the men's 200m backstroke.īritain won the men's 4x200m freestyle relay, finishing ahead of the United States and Australia. O'Callaghan also broke new ground when she became the first woman to complete a 100m-200m freestyle double. "I thought maybe I could lose because I had already won two golds, but then before the race, I told myself that I didn't want to be a loser." "People have two sides to them, and there is a little angel and a little devil inside me," said the 24-year-old. Qin said winning all three breaststroke events had been his goal coming into the championships in Fukuoka, but breaking the record had been "a surprise". There's no other reason to say those words.Qin finished ahead of previous 200m record holder Zac Stubblety-Cook of Australia, who clocked 2:06.40, and American Matt Fallon, who was third on 2:07.74. It doesn't necessarily mean you're a racist, but it does mean you're about to defend racism in some form.
PS: If you ever need to start a sentence with something along the lines of "I'm not a racist, but", you're probably heading down the wrong path. As if you could erase history these days even if you tried. The "erasing history" silliness doesn't make a lick of sense. Or did we forget about Hitler after (most of) his statues were torn down? Or about Saddam Hussein? There's nothing you can learn from them that you can't learn better in a history book, a documentary, or a museum. Statues are monuments to people, they're not history. As if these statues (of which almost none are of historical or artistic value) were somehow more important than actual issues. Your silly bit about activism is barely worth an answer.
It's still on our DVDs and various other media. These are private companies and they get to decide what they sell. And so is taking episodes/movies off of streaming services. Or make fun of your own race and culture, like many great comedians do.Īdding content warnings or information about context takes nothing away from comedy. Quoting: clatterfordslimIf you're a comedian and the only thing you can do is punch down at different cultures and races, I don't think you're very creative.
