Kelsi Worrell inched closer to Dara Torres’ American Record in the 50 fly at the 2017 Phillips 66 USA Swimming National Championships with a 25.69 to miss Torres’ record of 25.50. Worrell moved to second in the world rankings behind Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom (24.76). Worrell has the option to swim the 50 fly in Budapest since she made the 4×100 free relay last night.
Worrell moved away from the whole field during the race as North Carolina’s Hellen Moffitt (26.19) and Trojan’s Kendyl Stewart (26.24) finished second and third. Those two will be vying to get on the team in the 100 on Thursday.
Alyssa Marsh (26.46), Annie Ochitwa (26.51), Aly Tetzloff (26.57), Amanda Kendall (26.62) and Maddie Murphy (26.70) also swam in the A-final.
