PHOENIX, Arizona, November 29. TODAY, Swimming World<\/i> announces the 2010 European Swimmers of the Year! Italy's Federica Pellegrini and France's Camille Lacourt topped the panel's voting for the European region.<\/p>\n

A year after becoming the first Italian to win World Swimmer of the Year honors, as well as the European title, Pellegrini defended her European crown in one of the closest votes among the panelists this year. Less than 10 points separated Pellegrini from Great Britain's Rebecca Adlington for the honor. <\/p>\n
