(TheSportsNext) July 29, 2012: The Great Britain’s biggest gold medal hope,
Rebecca Adlington witnessed a mixed first day at the London2012 on Sunday when
she only managed to qualify into the final of the women’s 400 meters freestyle
at the Aquatics Center.
Rebecca Adlington found huge support at the Aquatics Center
which cheered for her as soon as she completed her heat in 4:05.75, the fastest
time in her heat. However, they were made to bite their nails later on after
swimmers competing in the other two heats started posting better times and in
the end Rebecca Adlington only managed to qualify into the finals as the eighth
and slowest qualifier.
