Saturday, June 14th – Thursday, June 19th, 2025 Prelims at 8 am local (2 am ET)/Finals at 6 pm local (Noon ET) Montpellier, France LCM (50m) Meet Central Entries Live Results Live Stream Live Recaps Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 5Welcome to the final night of the 2025 French Elite Championships. We are in for a star-studded session tonight with many of the top names in French swimming competing this evening.
The meet will kick off with the men’s 100 butterfly, which is highlighted by Maxime Grousset, last year’s champion and Olympic finalist. Grousset has already had a strong meet, breaking his own National Record in the men’s 50 fly earlier in the week. Clement Secchi and Michel Arkhangelsky qualified 2nd and 3rd respectively.
The Women’s 400 IM will be the 2nd event of the meet, with Cyrielle Duhamel coming in as the top overall seed, more than seven seconds ahead of the rest of the field with her 4:45.28 from the prelims. After Duhamel, however, the race appears to be pretty tight and exciting this evening. Kamonchanok Kwanmuang, a Thai swimmer, qualified 2nd, two seconds ahead of the tie for 3rd place between Anastasia Urbaniak and Clara Mougenot. Camille Tissandie was only a tenth back of that tie for 5th qualifying spot.
We will follow that with the men’s 50 backstroke, where Yohann Ndoye-Brouard and Mewen Tomac, who went 1-2 in the 100 back earlier this week, turned in the top times, a tenth away from each other. Also in the mix is Lysander Osman, who was just three hundredths behind Ndoye-Brouard this morning to qualify 3rd.
The women’s 50 freestyle will be up next, with Beryl Gastaldello looking to win her 2nd event of the meet, after she took home gold in the 100 freestyle. She is the top seed by four-tenths, and she will be attempting to hold off Florine Gaspard and Mary-Ambre Moluh who came in behind her.
Finally, the men’s 400 IM will be the last event of the meet, and we are looking at a rematch from the men’s 200 IM. Emilien Mattenet, the 200 IM Champion, was the top qualifier this morning with 200 IM silver medalist Jaouad Syoud qualifying 2nd.
