Original 100 breast report:

Badger’s Cody Miller raced his way to third in the world in the men’s 100-meter breast with a lifetime best at the Arena Pro Swim Series Santa Clara.

Miller blazed his way to a top time of 59.51, moving himself to third in the world behind only Adam Peaty’s world record of 57.92 and Ross Murdoch (59.13).

That’s better than his previous lifetime best of 59.91 that he just missed with a ninth-ranked 59.92 from the Orlando stop earlier this year.

FIAT’s Felipe Lima, ranked fifth in the world with a 59.78, took second tonight in 1:00.66.

California’s Josh Prenot threw down a time of 1:01.21 to take third overall.

Michael Andrew, the 16-year-old professional swimmer, just missed lowering his 15-16 U.S. National Age Group record of 1:01.67 with a fourth-place 1:01.70. Andrew was looking towards the record after shaving for this meet.
