HEAT SHEETS

The Iron Lady Katinka Hosszu captured her fifth world record of the FINA World Cup tour as she became the first female ever to clear 57 seconds in the sprint medley.  She obliterated her previous record of 57.25 from a few days ago in Doha with a sweltering 56.86 this morning.  That’s another $10,000 check going into Hosszu’s coffers.  She’s now set all three IM records, and downed the 100 and 200 IM global marks twice in just two stops of the circuit.
