but will Martin is a man who looks like he is the competitor to beat Golden the 400 free and four by 100 meter bronze in the relay no Martin is the world record holder and the paralympic record holder and I can tell you it's not just in 2021 it was this very day that he broke the world record he went 58-1-4 in the preliminaries and although not ratified as a world record we know he's gone sub 58. so this is going to be down to berlam and morlaki who did heat it for the gold medal at the 2019 World Championships it must be said murlucky closed so incredibly fast barlon was nearly blown out of the water in the end they hit the touchpad at exactly the same time two thousandths of a second they couldn't be separated and they shared the gold medal at the world championships but will Martin seems to be in a league of his own right now remarkably only fists at the world's Braun shrike Scalia Martin balam or lucky Hodge and schalke now so watch out for uh will Martin going in lane four twice the gold medalist at these championships and looking to take it out fast here is Simone berlam going alongside him they're matching one another Scalia going in lane two for RPC is right up in the mix and choker now is not too bad but it's the two in the center lane who are going for the wall at 50 in front so it's will Martin who touches first now will Martin is out older than he actually barlim if he if we know he has that early opening speed where Simone Barlow struggles though is the second 50. well Martin though looking good will Martin is looking good for a world record again twice in the space of a day he might smash it again he's over a body length in front will Martin ahead of perlam and scalio will Martin is going to come to the wall in world record time he's done it and so too but alarm to secure the silver Scully of thirds but will Martin's 57.19 seconds we knew he was capable and he has done it now a wag of the finger he knew it never a doubt in his mind he has picked up his third gold medal of Tokyo 2020 as the Australian Scalia with a very fine bronze just outside a minute over a body length behind the spike going under 60 Seconds a wonderful and wondrous world record from will Martin misses out on the podium this time the world champion no fast close on this occasion but Lam lost it on the turn will Martin got himself into a glorious position to mount another challenge on the world record straight off the blocks yeah Will Martin he had that beautiful underwater Simone barlum doesn't typically have the start to match someone like a Martin but what will Martin did was he went out fast here he went out even faster than he did this morning and then what was so critical though was coming into this turn here where barlim actually went out pretty fast too to be able to keep up with Martin but then Martin used it underwater here barlim didn't have as strong of a turn and then what will Martin did even you know coming off the wall is he just continued to build that second 50 he didn't fade at all this is where people sometimes have trouble as the second 50 but Martin did not and he was over two seconds faster than Barlow that's how fast Martin was it's Unthinkable to uh imagine somebody going into the wall well over a body length in front when the second place swimmer has touched below 60 Seconds with the hundred fly confirming the results are world record and wonderful win for will Martin a 57-1-9 breaking his own world record he had set this morning in the preliminary Simone bar alarm takes the silver and Alex scalio has bronze
