Swimming progression edit

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

You say "Qualifiers for the final as decided on a time only basis. Ranks shown are overall rank against competitors in all heats", however the ranks shown are the rank 'within' the heat. You should show the rank amongst all competitors from all the heats as this is how progression is decided in swimming events.

E.g. Two heats of 3 swimmers, fastest 4 qualify

Heat 1
1. Swimmer A 32.50 Q
2. Swimmer B 36.78 Q
3. Swimmer C 37.79 Q

Heat 2
1. Swimmer D 32.51 Q
2. Swimmer E 37.80
3. Swimmer F 40.99

Overall rank amongst all competitors
1. Swimmer A 32.50 Q
2. Swimmer D 32.51 Q
3. Swimmer B 36.78 Q
4. Swimmer C 37.79 Q
5. Swimmer E 37.80
6. Swimmer F 40.99
