Russia’s Kliment Kolesnikov continued his run of World Junior Records as he took two-hundredths off his own mark in the men’s 100 back semi-finals. He touched in 52.95, good for the top seed heading into the final, and he beat his own WJR of 52.97 set in April. Kolesnikov broke his first senior world record Saturday with a 24.00 in the 50 back.
Kolesnikov’s countryman Evgeny Rylov qualified second for the final in 53.20, and Italy’s Simone Sabbioni took third in 53.39. Romania’s Robert Glinta (53.63) and Greece’s Apostolos Christou (53.90) also broke 54 seconds.
The final will also include Germany’s Christian Diener (54.10), Italy’s Thomas Ceccon (54.24) and Jan-Philip Glania (54.24).
