Tatjana Schoenmaker sounded a serious warning to her Tokyo Games rivals on Sunday evening as she broke the 100m breaststroke Olympic record in the heats.
Schoenmaker went into the showpiece seeded fourth in this event and first in the 200m breaststroke, but she threw down the gauntlet as she powered into the lead and almost lost her green cap on her way to clocking 1min 04.82sec to win her heat.In her wake was one of her two main American rivals, Lydia Jacoby who touched in 1:05.52. The other US competitor, world record-holder Lilly King, won the final heat in 10:05.55. King owns the 1:04.13 world mark and the 1:04.72 world lead.
Her performance delivered some much needed impetus to Team SA after two mostly lacklustre days of Olympic action.
TKwazi I smell our first Gold 😜
Congratulations! Keep It Up!
