The older Campbell had maintained a steady hold at first in the event through prelims and semi-finals but was unable to shave time off and near her 2015 best of 24.03 from the BHP Super Series. She is still the top ranked swimmer in the event for 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Canada&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Chantal Van Landeghem<\/strong> finished close behind Campbell with a time of 24.39, moving up from her eighth place seed.
