SWIMMING
Great Britain claimed nine medals and Missy Franklin
became the first woman to set a new world record since performance-enhancing
suits were banned on the first day of racing at the FINA World Cup
in Berlin. European champions Fran Halsall and Lizzie Simmonds both
won two medals apiece with the latter third in the 200 metres
backstroke in which Franklin, just 16, lowered Shiho Sakai's two-year
short-course mark. While Ryan Lochte and Sun Yang have set new world
records, the former in both long (50m) and short course (25m),
American Franklin becomes the first woman to do so as she warms up
for what is set to be a storming first Olympics in London next summer. |
