Among the other record setters was American <strong>Marcus Titus<\/strong>, who brought his tally to three at the meet.<\/p>\n<p>Titus won all three rounds of the 50 freestyle, culminating in a 23.34 in the final. That broke his own world record of 23.46 from the 2011 deaf world swimming championships. In addition to <a href=http:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/marcus-titus-deaf-world-swimming-championships\/ target=_blank>breaking the world record in the 100 free<\/a> and winning the 100 breast with a 1:00.59 in the first half of the meet, Titus also won the 200 breast with a 2:15.76 and the 50 breast with a 27.90 that came close to his world record of 27.79.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aksana Petrushenka<\/strong> of Belarus snared another world record as well, taking the 100 breast in 1:11.53 to beat her own world record of 1:12.34 from 2011. That gave Petrushenka a sweep of the breaststroke events, and she also won the 200 IM.<\/p>\n<p>Japan\u2019s <strong>Yoshikazu Kanaji<\/strong> collected his second world record of the meet with a 58.12 in the men\u2019s 100 backstroke. That beat <strong>Matt Klotz\u2019s<\/strong> year-old world record of 58.35.<\/p>\n<p>The other non-Russian to earn a world record in the final three days of the meet was South Africa\u2019s <strong>Peggy de Villiers<\/strong>, who posted a 1:03.69 in the 100 butterfly to beat <strong>Ekaterina Savchenko\u2019s<\/strong> mark of 1:04.02 from 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Of the four world records the Russians set in the final half of the meet, <strong>Elena Brykanova\u2019s<\/strong> 30.60 in the women\u2019s 50 backstroke might be the most impressive. She held off a strong field to earn the win and break de Villiers\u2019 world record of 31.11 from 2009. Two others also dipped under the record, as Great Britain\u2019s <strong>Danielle Joyce<\/strong> (30.75) and Argentina\u2019s <strong>Diana Valentini<\/strong> (30.98) also put up a strong fight for the title.<\/p>\n<p>The women\u2019s 200 back was won by <strong>Alena Alekseeva<\/strong> with a 2:25.18, just getting under the world record of 2:25.71 by <strong>Mariya Rudzko<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Russia swept the 400 freestyle relays to close out the meet. <strong>Eleonora Brykanova, Alena Alekseeva, Ekaterina Savchenko<\/strong> and <strong>Maria Karpova<\/strong> combined for a 3:58.92 in the women\u2019s race, beating the world record of 3:59.34 swum by Ukraine in 2009. In the men\u2019s event, <strong>Ilya Sarykin, Andrei Zhivaev, Miron Denisov<\/strong> and <strong>Vitalii Obotin<\/strong> won the race by nine seconds with a 3:30.36 and broke the previous world record of 3:32.52 swum by a Russian squad in 2006.<\/p>\n<p><i>Full results of the deaf world swimming championships can be found on Meet
