Aoki is still searching for her breakthrough meet. And the home-based World Championships could
allow her to claim the top spot on the podium. The 28-year-old has been posting some impressive times
in the 100m breaststroke. And currently ranked second globally with a time of 1:06.11, which she
achieved at the Japan Open.

3. Aoki finished fifth in Budapest’s 100m breaststroke event last year, clocking in at 1:06.38. However, if
she manages to improve her time and bring it down to the 1:05 range. Then she could become a strong
contender for the podium. She will be competing against reigning world champion Benedetta Pilato of
Italy, and the resurging Lithuanian Ruta Meilutyte. And other than that the ever-present American Lilly
King in the race.
Paris 2024: Ippei Watanabe appears to be getting back to his old self for Olympic Paris
The former 200m breaststroke world record holder appears to be returning to his former form. He is 25
years old and a two-time bronze medalist at the World Championships. He missed out on the 2020
Olympic Games in his speciality event, the 200m breaststroke. However, after taking some time off, he is
starting to perform at a level we have come to expect from the Tsukumi native.
Currently, Watanabe is tied with his Japanese teammate Shoma Sato as the top swimmer in the world in
his main event, the 200m breaststroke. Both swimmers clocked a time of 2:08.55 in January of this year.
Watanabe's personal best and former world record stands at 2:06.67, achieved in 2017. However,
Australia's Zac Stubblety-Cook set a new world record at an astonishing 2:05.95. Watanabe will need to
swim faster than ever before to challenge the Australian for the gold medal in Fukuoka this summer.
