FINALS

Men’s 400 free

Italy’s Gabriele Detti took down the meet record in the men’s 400-meter free at the 2016 European Championships.

Detti hit the wall in a time of 3:44.01, breaking the 3:45.10 set by Yury Prilukov back in 2008 at the Eindhoven edition of the meet.

Detti has been faster this year, however, with a third-ranked time of 3:43.97.

James Guy, who is the top-ranked swimmer here with a second-ranked 3:43.84 from British Nationals, missed out on finals during prelims as he’s focused on the Olympics this year.

Norway’s Henrik Christiansen took second overall in a time of 3:46.49 with Peter Bernek earning third overall with a 3:46.81 to claim the final medal. Austria’s Felix Auboeck just missed the podium with a fourth-place 3:46.88.

Women’s 400 IM

Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu was out under world-record pace at the 300 before fading badly to settle for a meet record in the women’s 400-meter IM at the 2016 European Championships.

Hosszu split a 3:28.84 at the 300-meter mark, under Ye Shiwen’s 3:29.75 from 2012. But, Hosszu did not have the same freestyle speed as she faded with a 4:30.90 for the win.

That’s a full second off her world-best time of 4:29.89, but still a smidge better than her meet record of 4:30.97 from prelims.

Great Britain’s Hannah Miley, already the second-ranked swimmer in the world with a 4:33.40 from British Nationals, took second tonight in 4:35.27.

Hungary’s Zsuzsanna Jakabos completed the rest of the podium with a third-place time of 4:38.39.

Great Britain’s Aimee Willmott (4:40.08), Italy’s Carlotta Toni (4:40.76), Italy’s Luisa Trombetti (4:41.03), Czech’s Barbora Zavadova (4:43.11) and Slovenia’s Anja Klinar (4:43.42) also competed in the finale.

Men’s 50 fly

Ukraine’s Andrey Govorov moved up to fourth all time in the men’s 50-meter fly with a meet record time at the 2016 European Championships.

Govorov, who already clocked a 23.00 this morning, unleashed a 22.73 tonight during semis. That lowered his own meet record of 22.87 set at the 2014 Berlin event.

It also moved him to fourth all time in the event’s history. Rafael Munoz (22.43), Roland Schoeman (22.57), Milorad Cavic (22.67) and Matt Targett (22.73) are the other members of the top five.

Notably, Govorov’s time also lowered the textile best of 22.76 set by Cesar Cielo in 2012.

Great Britain’s Ben Proud (23.42), Italy’s Piero Codia (23.55), Hungary’s Laszlo Cseh (23.57), The Netherlands’ Joeri Verlinden (23.67), France’s Fred Bousquet (23.69), Israel’s Meiron Cheruti (23.70) and Belarus’ Yauhen Tsurkin (23.72) also made the finale.
