Women’s 400m Freestyle Final Preview

The Paris 2024 Olympics are upon us, and some of the first and most interesting events are the Swimming ones.

We are looking right into the Women’s 400m Freestyle, which will take place on Saturday, and it’d be a one-day deal, as there will be three heats to decide who will make it to the long-awaited final and see who will be getting the gold medal for their nation.

With only a few heats to take place before the swimmers get ready for the Final, this is bound to be exciting from start to finish, and with around 8 hours between the first heat and the finals, this stretch will have a lot of people on the edge of their seats.

Now, it is time to break down both the upcoming set of heats, and the odds for the swimmers we believe will not only make it to the final but also who has the higher chances to become the gold medalist this year.

HEATS – 5:12 AM ET

Women’s 400m Freestyle Betting Picks

We will point out who we believe will be the best six to make it to the final while adding in the odds for them to win the gold medal at once.

1st Heat

Regarding the first heat, we believe that the weakest seeds are here. We don’t see any of the five swimmers in this group standing out enough to make it to the finals against some of the monsters on the upcoming list.

2nd Heat

Regarding the 2nd heat, things start to become a bit more interesting, and we have two names that we believe will make it to the final.

The first is the United States Representative, Paige Madden, and the second is Anastasiia Kirpichnikova, the local competitor putting France in the Final.

3rd Heat

We have the strongest swimmers on this group, as we have four names here which we believe will make a statement.

The first is for Germany, as we believe Isabel Gose will be making it through, and then we have China’s Li Bingjie.

Besides those two, we have the heavy hitters in the division, Ariarne Titmus from Australia, and of course, we also expect Katie Ledecky from the USA to get her ticket.

FINAL – 2:52 PM ET

There will be two spots up for grabs according to us, but here are the odds we have on the six swimmers we mentioned:
