Israeli swimmer Anastasia Gorbenko qualifies for the semifinal in the women’s 100m breaststroke after finishing seventh overall in the heats at the Paris Olympics.

Gorbenko will swim this evening in the semifinal, hoping to make it to tomorrow’s final, the same day she’ll also compete in the 400m individual medley.

Swimmer Leah Polonsky finishes 19th in the women’s 200m freestyle, failing to advance to the semifinal, while Adam Maraana finishes 28th in the men’s 100m backstroke and also does not advance to the semifinal.
