2026 European Championships Previews: Lukas Märtens In Full Control Of The 400 Freestyle (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The men’s 400 freestyle has seen plenty of turnover at the European Championship level. There has not been a back-to-back winner in the event at the championships since Russia’s Yury Prilukov won the 2006 and 2008 titles. Felix Auböck, the most recent champion, has retired from competitive swimming, so the streak will live on for another championship cycle. There may not have been consistency at the continental level, but in the past three years, Lukas Märtens has firmly cemented himself as the

Eight of the top ten performers hit their mark in the past four years and that includes Bobby Finke breaking the long-standing world record two years ago at the 2024 Olympics.

Read excerpt
Hubert Kos is the clear favorite in this event. He has won the last two major titles on the senior international stage, first at the 2024 Olympics in Paris (1:54.26) and then at the 2025 World Championships in Singapore (1:53.19), and added a world title in 2023 as well (1:54.14). As he did when he won his first world title in 2023 Kos came from behind to win gold in Singapore last summer, splitting 28.60/29.95 to beat South Africa’s Pieter Coetze. He got his hand on the wall in 1:53.19, a Europ
