T&T’s Christian Homer placed 35th in the men’s 100m backstroke after he clocked 59.67 at the 45th Santa Clara International Invitational Swim at the George F Haines International Swim Centre, Santa Clara, Northern California, yesterday. On Saturday, he was second in his men’s 50m freestyle heat three of 11 with a time of 24.55 seconds to trail Joseph Natina home while Alan Winder was third in 24.84.
However, the times of the top three swimmers in the heat were only good for 33rd, 57th and 69th overall respectively. On Friday, Homer ended in eighth spot from nine swimmers in his men’s 100m butterfly heat in a time of 56.41 seconds for 31st spot which was faster than his 58.31 at the Charlotte Ultra Swim last month to finish ahead of Brett Fraser (57.28)
