World champion Daiya Seto misses 400 IM final in shocking upset | Tokyo Olympics | NBC Sports
I was watching this on Tv and it made me SO sad that he lost imagine how that felt?
I hate this woman commentator. I'm watching a race. Not here for a camp. I wanna feel the energy.
did seto take 2 dolphin kicks at 2:55? thats a dq
Did he get a cramp?
I think Japan is paying money to buy gold medals and still losing.
🇺🇸👌👍👏😎🙏💪🏊
Doesn’t matter, he’s still a better swimmer than 99.9999% of the world
He can't be a triple citizen as Japan does not even allow dual citizenship.
Aussieland goin off
That hurts.
Yah…USA USA USA!
HI THERE IM REBECCA LOWE STUDIO HOST FOR NBC’S COVERAGE OF THE 2020 TOKYO OLYMPIC 🔊🔊
dw guys its only season 1 season 2 is the redemption arc
Got chased down by everyone
🤣🤣🤣 Bye!!!
Really he seemed OK until the last turn and just completely tanked
It’s almost ‘Biden is a loser and USA is losing’
So sorry seto
He was too worried about leaving his stamina for the final to swim his hardest. All he wanted to do was to make it to the final so he didn’t swim hard enough for the last 100m thinking he was ahead enough. I wonder if he didn’t watch the second group of semi final. 😫
Is anyone upset the Chinese didn't make it…didn't think so
Doesn't even seem like the olympics.
Never, never, never, never, EVER use your all your power IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE RACE! This is a LONG RACE! He got tired and unfortunately, he didn’t get what he wanted, he was doing great but he has to control his stamina and when to use it! You have to gradually go faster up until the end of the race!
I understand how he feels though because he is in his own country which is hosting the olympics and he wanted to prove to everyone he is still a champion! I do feel for him
How can he have triple citizenship when Japan doesn’t even allow dual citizenship? I think the announcer got something wrong.
Wow amazing finale
Hopefully, Japan isn't putting an extreme amount of pressure on her athletes, given Uchimura's and now Seto's miscues. Wishing their Olympic team all the best in body and mind and spirit.
Haru would have won that race for Japan like the insane dolphin that he is.
Kind of like the Falcons in Super Bowl LI (Feb 5, 2017).
Commentators said Seto chasing Michael Phelps greatness, well that didn’t last long.. haha
Wow .. AND SETO has the nerve to say he wants to destroy Phelps records in swimming 🏊🏼♂️😳😳😳😳😳.. Well you gotta make the finals first in order to have a CHANCE at that. Gotta give him his respect though because at the halfway mark he was at 1:58 while the slowest were at 2:02. He couldn't maintain that great lead he had. What a show they all put on for us ‼️‼️‼️‼️
In his interview, Seto said he intentionally went slow at the end cause he wanted to save his energy for tomorrow. He thought he was guaranteed to win. What an idiot. Everyone in Japan is mad at him right now
is Seto a terrible freestyler, or did he just gas out?
The jolly daughter plausibly deliver because softball pragmatically laugh during a dirty numeric. young, mixed humidity
I am surprised to see Sato's freeestyle swim where his head was raised so high, and his knee position was quite low, thus generating more surface area, or more drag during the swim.
burned down
Why was seto so slow Compared to his usual standard? In the final heat the best swimmers were swimming aroun 4:03 and here these guys were swimming 4:09–4:10.
Only a card board crowd to cheer them on.
Don’t be overconfident Seto, Can’t challenge Phelps 😎
He pulled a Michael andrew
All these whistles lol
What a race!
I wonder what happened?
Please tell the moron blowing the wistle to stop please!
Looks like he got laid the night before and used all his nrg
WoW U really have to be in A1 shape to go to the Olympics
