Remedy Rule failed to advance in the semifinal after placing 25th overall in the 100-meter butterfly of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre in Japan on Saturday, July 24.

Only the Top 16 are qualified for the next round led by Yufei Zhang of China, Emma McKeon of Australia, and Sarah Sjoestroem of Sweden.

Swimming in Heat 2, Rule placed second at 59.58 seconds only to be eliminated with the announcement of the overall results.

Rule has a chance to redeem herself on July 27, Tuesday, as she competes in the 200-m butterfly event (Heat 3).
