Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the tactical options (also known as pacing strategy of the swimmers in 200m event. A total of 16 male swimmers were selected from the finals’ result sheets in the 14th FINA World Championship, 2011 and Incheon Asian Games, 2014. The tactical options were investigated through analysing the timing of the races with each 50m split and according to the individual’s total time of the race. Only the time factor and efforts distribution were considered in this study. Comparisons were made within the winners and losers of their 50m split timings as well between those. Comparisons were also made using 50m split timings between the winners and losers. For all the 50m split comparisons, there was a statistically significant difference between each of the 50m split timings. As of within winners and losers comparisons, all events showed no statistical significance while between winners and losers, only 200m Backstroke event has shown statistically significant difference. In conclusion, there were differences in the tactical options used by the medallists and non-medallists for all four swimming styles in 200m swimming event.
