On the evening of July 30, Beijing time, the Paris Olympic swimming event ended the women's 1500-meter freestyle preliminaries, and Chinese player Li Bingjie won the second place in the group and ranked sixth overall to advance to the final. China's Gao Weizhong ranked 13th.
In the second group, Italy's Quadarella won first in 15:51.19. China's Gao Weizhong ranked seventh in the group in 16:27.11.
In the third group, Ledecky opened the lead, with Li Bingjie and United States' Grimes following closely, but soon the situation became blurred, and this group had at least four players on the same level as Li Bingjie.
Ledecky's lead is becoming more and more exaggerated. Halfway through, the other competitors almost fell out of the same frame. Li Bingjie swayed around the third and fourth positions at this time.
After 900 meters, Li Bingjie showed signs of acceleration, and 950 meters rose to second place!
At the last minute, Li Bingjie and Brazil's Dizzotti competed fiercely, and at 1400 meters the two turned almost at the same time, and Li Bingjie was slightly ahead.
Ledecky finished first in 15:47.43. Li Bingjie was second in the group with a time of 16:05.26, and Dizzotti was third in 16:05.40.
Ledecky was first overall, Quadarella was second, and Kirpichnikova, who naturalized France from Russia, was third in 15:52.46.
