Women's 100m Backstroke Semifinals

So this was the match my local broadcaster failed to show. That, or I was having my fishy dream (an evening nap to prepare for my midnight report). Like Kitajima, a fellow 2X defending olympic champion, Zimbabwe's national treasure Kirsty Conventry fail to perform. 17 year old Missy Franklin, at her first Olympics, finishes first in her semifinals round. This set looks interesting to watch too! It will be a tight race between her and current record holder Seebohm.

Finalists:

1. Emily Seebohm (Aus) 58.39
2. Missy Franklin (Usa) 59.12
3. Aya Terakawa (Jpn) 59.34
4. Zhao Jing (Chn) 59.55
5. Anastacia Zueva (Rus) 59.68
6. Gemma Spofforth (Gbr) 59.70
7. Belinda Hocking (Aus) 59.79
8. Fu Yuanhui (Chn) 59.82
