USA’s Cody Miller upset world record holder Daniel Gyurta of Hungary in the men’s 200-meter breaststroke at the 2015 Duel in the Pool.
Less than a month after getting engaged and in front of what amounts to a home crowd as a former IU Hoosier, Miller blasted his way to a 2:02.33 for the win. That swim clipped Kevin Cordes’ American mark of 2:02.38 from 2013 and moved Miller up to fifth in the all time rankings.
Miller also broke Brendan Hansen’s U.S. Open mark of 2:03.62 from 2011.
Gyurta, who owns the world record with a 2:00.48 from 2014, took second in 2:02.36. Euro’s Andrew Willis placed third in 2:03.60.
USA’s Nic Fink (2:03.62), Euro’s Craig Benson (2:04.10) and USA’s Josh Prenot (2:04.22) also competed.
Running Team Score: USA 45, Euro 27
