Despite his fourth place seed heading into Night Two of the TYR Pro Swim Series, Zach Apple proved his top-notch sprinter quality with a blazing 48.76 100 free to start the men’s schedule. Out-touching Blake Pieroni (48.86) by a tenth of a second, Apple went 0.65 under his time from this morning to seize the win. Robert Howard managed to break into the top three, posting a 49.09 to also beat his preliminary swim. Nathan Adrian moved up to fourth in his first finals swim since his testicular cancer diagnosis, dropping a 49.31 to gain a healthy advantage over Ali Khalafalla (49.68). Andrej Barna out-touched Coleman Stewart (50.26) at the finish, crashing the pads with a 50.23, while Mohamed Samy finished off the heat with a 50.81.
