Verdict: Hit

Sam Short (AUS) gewann erwartungsgemäß Gold im 1500m Freistil der Männer bei den Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow (Tollcross International Swimming Centre, Day 6 = 29. Juli 2026) mit 14:42,11 min – er verteidigte damit seinen CWG-Titel aus Birmingham 2022 und komplettierte den Distance-Sweep (400m/800m/1500m Gold). Als Hauptrival erwies sich nicht der vorhergesagte Daniel Jervis, sondern der Ire Dan Wiffen (Silber, 14:44,70), was die Vorhersage selbst aber nicht beeinträchtigt.
