0.57: A sector that bodes well, albeit four months later. For Giulia Gabbrielleschi this is the fourth World Cup and an important occasion. In recent seasons the woman from Pistoia has collected more in the 5km than the 10, but the Olympic sprint is flying and this is “the race” she knows very well. There is the possibility that he will be a star in Paris and therefore the blues will give their best to be able to bring home a medal in a race with many favourites, all hard to beat, both on the pace and in the sprint.

0.54: Geneva Taddeucci, a stalwart of Italian endurance swimming, coached by Giovanni Pistelli, last year proved herself internationally in the rough waters of Ostia Lido with her continental second place and her approach to Fukuoka peaked in mid-March with victory in the opening race of the Len Cup in Israel, in Eilat, exactly 10 kilometers away.

0.52: The starting field is of the highest standard and to be able to get on the podium we need the perfect match from our Blues who have the right energy, quality and determination to aim high.

0.49: The two selected for the world championships in Fukuoka are two of the big stars of blue bottom swimming in recent seasons, both from Tuscany, both already medalists at international level, Ginevra Taddeucci, silver last year at the European Championships in Rome and Giulia Gabbrielleschi, who already has four world championship medals around her neck, but never at the Olympic distance, where instead she also won European silver in Glasgow.

0.46: The first three passes for Paris will go to Fukuoka and Italy would already like to close the case for at least one of the two passes they may have at their disposal.

0.43: We start immediately with the Olympic distance of 10 km: it is one of the most important races of the whole event as it gives three Olympic cards to the three athletes who will climb the podium.

0.40: Hello and welcome to live coverage of the first day of competition at the 2023 Women’s Endurance Swimming World Championships in Fukuoka

Hello and welcome to Fukuoka 2023 Women’s Cross Country World Swimming World Championships LIVE on the first day of competition. We start immediately with the Olympic distance of 10 km: it is one of the most important races of the whole event since it gives three Olympic cards to the three athletes who will climb the podium.

The first three passes for Paris will be assigned to Fukuoka and Italy would already like to close the case for at least one of the two passes that may be at their disposal. The two selected for the world race in Fukuoka are two of the big stars of blue-bottom swimming in recent seasons. Both Tuscany, who both already have a medal at international level, Ginevra Taddeucci, silver last year at the European Championships in Rome, and Giulia Gabbrielleschi who already has four world championship medals around her neck but never in the Olympic distance, where she was also European silver in Glasgow. The initial field is his very first level and to be able to get on the podium you need the perfect match from our Blues who have the right drive, quality and determination to aim high.

Geneva Taddeucci, a strong point of Italian long-distance swimming, coached by Giovanni Pistelli, proved herself internationally last year in the muddy waters of Ostia Lido me the second mainland station and its approach course to Fukuoka peaked in mid-March with victory in the opening race of the Len Cup in Israel, in Eilat, exactly 10 km away. An area that bodes well, albeit four months later. For Giulia Gabbrielleschi this is the fourth World Cup and an important occasion. In recent seasons, the woman from Pistoia has collected more in the 5km than the 10, but the Olympic sprint is also This is the “tribe” you know very well. The possibility of being the protagonist exists in Paris and therefore blue will give its best to be able to bring a medal in a race with many favourites, all hard to beat, both in pace and sprint.
