Women’s 200 IM<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu<\/strong> clinched yet another gold medal with a meet record in the women’s 200-meter IM at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Hosszu clocked a top time of 2:07.30. \u00a0That swim cleared her meet record of 2:08.11 from 2014. \u00a0It also beat her top-ranked 2:07.69 from earlier this year at the Golden Tour.<\/p>\n

Overall, that’s tied for the sixth best time ever in the event: Hosszu (2:06.12), Ariana Kukors<\/strong> (2:06.15), Hosszu (2:06.84), Kukors (2:07.03), Stephanie Rice<\/strong> (2:07.03), Hosszu (2:07.30 x2).<\/p>\n

Great Britain’s Siobhan-Marie O’Connor<\/strong> (2:09.03) and Hannah Miley<\/strong> (2:11.84) claimed the rest of the podium times. \u00a0O’Connor bettered her third-ranked season best of 2:09.66 in the process.<\/p>\n

Italy’s Sara Franceschi<\/strong> (2:12.59), Hungary’s Evelyn Verraszto<\/strong> (2:12.91), Italy’s Carlotta Toni<\/strong> (2:13.17), The Netherlands’ Wendy van den Zanden<\/strong> (2:13.31) and Switzerland’s Maria Ugolkova<\/strong> (2:13.37) also put up times in the finale.<\/p>\n

Men’s 200 breast<\/strong><\/p>\n

Great Britain’s Ross Murdoch<\/strong> used a monster back half to win the men’s 200-meter breast at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Murdoch stopped the clock in 2:08.33 after turning third at the 100. \u00a0That swim moved him to fourth in the world this year. \u00a0Murdoch missed making the 200 breast on the British Olympic squad.<\/p>\n

Germany’s Marco Koch<\/strong>, the top-ranked swimmer in the world this year with a 2:07.69 from the Euro Meet, settled for silver in a time of 2:08.40 as he continues to focus on the 2016 Rio Olympics.<\/p>\n

Italy’s Luca Pizzini<\/strong> tracked down third with a time of 2:10.39, while Sweden’s Erik Persson took fourth in 2:10.50.<\/p>\n

Finland’s Matti Mattsson<\/strong>, who led at the 100, finished fifth in 2:10.69. Greece’s Panagiotis Samilidis<\/strong> (2:11.15), Russia’s Mikhail Dorinov<\/strong> (2:11.42) and Iceland’s Anton McKee<\/strong> (2:11.73) closed out the rest of the finishes.<\/p>\n

Women’s 100 back<\/strong><\/p>\n

Out under world-record pace, Denmark’s Mie Nielsen<\/strong> posted a meet record in the women’s 100-meter back for the win at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Nielsen, out in 28.61, came home in 30.12 to win the finale in 58.73. \u00a0That swim broke her own meet record of 59.16 from earlier in the meet and tied her with Emily Seebohm<\/strong> for the top time in the world this year.<\/p>\n

Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu<\/strong>, fresh off a win in the 200 IM, failed to pick up a double gold tonight with a second-place time of 58.94. That swim still moved her to second in the world ahead of Kylie Masse<\/strong> (59.06).<\/p>\n

Great Britain’s Kathleen Dawson<\/strong> rounded out the podium with a third-place time of 59.68, while Ukraine’s Daryna Zevina<\/strong> placed fourth in 59.97.<\/p>\n

Men’s 200 fly<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hungary’s Laszlo Cseh<\/strong> crushed his own meet record in the men’s 200-meter fly with the seventh-fastest time ever at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Cseh powered his way to a 1:52.91, smashing his meet mark of 1:54.29 set earlier in the meet. That swim also demolished the previous world best of 1:54.14 set by Daiya Seto<\/strong> at Japanese Nationals.<\/p>\n

The time is also the seventh best ever: Michael Phelps<\/strong> (1:51.51), Phelps (1:52.03), Phelps (1:52.09), Phelps (1:52.20), Cseh (1:52.70), Phelps (1:52.76). \u00a0 It just missed Cseh’s European record of 1:52.70.<\/p>\n

Denmark’s Viktor Bromer<\/strong> chased down a distant second in 1:55.35, off his season best of 1:55.28. \u00a0Hungary’s Tamas Kenderesi<\/strong> checked in third with a time of 1:55.39, off his fourth-ranked season best of 1:54.79.<\/p>\n

France’s Camille Lacourt<\/strong> continued his dominance to the sprint backstroke this year as he won the 50-meter back at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Lacourt, who owns the top time in the world this year with a 24.67 from the Golden Tour, took the title tonight in 24.77.<\/p>\n

Hungary’s Richard Bohus<\/strong> placed second in 24.82 to move up to a fifth-ranked tie in the rankings.<\/p>\n

Russia’s Grigory Tarasevich<\/strong> picked up bronze with a time of 24.86, while teammate Nikita Ulyanov<\/strong> wound up fourth in 24.96.<\/p>\n

Women’s 800 free relay<\/strong><\/p>\n

A monster anchor from Katinka Hosszu<\/strong> delivered the title for Hungary in the women’s 800-meter free relay at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Zsuzsanna Jakabos<\/strong> (1:58.60), Evelyn Verraszto<\/strong> (1:58.16) and Boglarka Kapas<\/strong> (1:58.22) kept Hungary competitive as Hosszu unleashed a 1:56.65 anchor for the win as Hungary posted a 7:51.63 for the win.<\/p>\n

Spain’s Melanie Costa Schmid<\/strong> (1:58.69), Patricia Castro Ortega<\/strong> (1:58.21), Fatima Gallardo Carpeto<\/strong> (1:58.63) and Mireia Belmonte Garcia<\/strong> (1:57.85) finished second in 7:53.38 with The Netherlands’ Andrea Kneppers<\/strong> (2:00.19), Esmee Vermeulen<\/strong> (1:58.53), Robin Neumann<\/strong> (1:59.75) and Femke Heemskerk<\/strong> (1:55.16) placed third in 7:53.63 as Heemskerk crushed the anchor.<\/p>\n

Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong> led Sweden off with a 1:55.30, which is a championship record in the women’s 200-meter free, but the rest of the team could not keep them in the medals as they took sixth in 7:55.74.<\/p>\n

SEMIFINALS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Men’s 100 free\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Italy’s Luca Dotto<\/strong> lead the way in the men’s 100-meter free semis at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Dotto hit the wall in 48.36, just off his second-ranked season best of 47.96 from Italian Nationals.<\/p>\n

France’s Clement Mignon<\/strong> put up a second-seeded time of 48.59, off his season best of 48.01.<\/p>\n

Women’s 100 fly<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong> powered her way to a meet record in the women’s 100-meter fly at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Sjostrom claimed a top time of 56.12, breaking the previous mark of 56.51 set by Jeanette Ottesen<\/strong> at the 2014 edition of the meet in Berlin.<\/p>\n

The time is a bit off Sjostrom’s world-best 55.68 from the Swedish Open, but she might challenge that as well as her world record of 55.64 during finals.<\/p>\n

Ottesen qualified second in a time of 57.38 with Italy’s Ilaria Bianchi<\/strong> picking up third in 57.47.<\/p>\n

Hungary’s Liliana Szilagyi<\/strong> (57.83), Greece’s Anna Ntountounaki<\/strong> (58.58), Belgium’s Kimberly Buys<\/strong> (58.71), Czech’s Lucie Svecena<\/strong> (58.71) and Spain’s Judit Ignacio Sorribes<\/strong> (58.73) also made the finals.<\/p>\n

Women’s 200 breast<\/strong><\/p>\n

Great Britain’s Chloe Tutton<\/strong> paced semis in the women’s 200-meter breast at the 2016 European Championships.<\/p>\n

Tutton posted a top time of 2:23.76, well off her fourth-ranked season best of 2:22.34 from British Nationals.<\/p>\n

Turkey’s Viktoria Zeynep Gunes<\/strong> raced her way to second in 2:23.94 for 12th in the rankings, while Denmark’s Rikke Moeller Pedersen<\/strong> placed third in semis with a 2:24.10. \u00a0She has a fifth-ranked 2:22.83 to her credit this year.<\/p>\n

Iceland’s Hilda Luthersdottir<\/strong> (2:24.11), Spain’s Jessica Vall Montero<\/strong> (2:24.56), Great Britain’s Molly Renshaw<\/strong> (2:24.85), Finland’s Jenna Laukkanen<\/strong> (2:25.47) and Czech’s Martina Moravcikova<\/strong> (2:25.78) also earned spots in the finale.<\/p>\n
