IRVINE, California, August 5. MAKE it another world record for Brendan Hansen. After breaking his 100 breaststroke global standard on the first night of action at the United States National Championships, Hansen lowered his world mark in the 200 breast on Saturday night. Hansen was timed in 2:08.74, bettering the 2:09.04 he posted at the 2004 Olympic Trials in Long Beach.<\/p>\n
The reigning world champion in the 100 and 200 breast events, Hansen has left no doubt that he\u2019s the premier breaststroker on the planet, competing at a level that once seemed unfathomable. Hansen took the race out quickly, splitting 28.87 at the 50-meter mark and 1:01.58 at the midpoint of the race. He remained ahead of record pace when he touched in 1:34.84 at the 150 and powered home with the help of a boisterous crowd.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 200 is my baby,\u201d Hansen said. \u201cIt\u2019s my favorite event. After the 100 earlier in the week, I knew my 200 would be quick. I wanted to chip away at it, but after my warmup and prelim this morning, I knew that kind of time was a possibility. I think I have more in the tank. A 2:07 isn\u2019t far away.\u201d<\/p>\n
