SwimMAC’s Katie Meili had a big lead over Tennessee’s Molly Hannis at the halfway point of the 100 breast final, but Hannis roared back on the second 50 and touched in 1:06.47 to take the win. That time marked the fastest in the world for 2017, faster than the 1:06.53 from Yulia Efimova a day earlier in Sydney.
Meili finished second in 1:07.00, good for fifth in the world rankings, while Iceland’s Hrafnhilder Luthersdottir took third in 1:07.94.
Great Britain’s Sarah Vasey was fourth in 1:08.03, just ahead of Canada’s Rachel Nicol (1:08.17). Another Brit, Chloe Tutton, took sixth in 1:08.40, and New York Athletic Club’s Breeja Larson (1:08.59) and Club Wolverine’s Miranda Tucker (1:08.68) were seventh and eighth, respectively.
