But her win in the women&#8217;s 100 back was far from easy. First, the 17-year-old had to chase down Team USA&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Olivia Smoliga<\/strong>, who flipped at the 50-meter mark with a sizable lead. Ruck turned up the heat in the back half of the meet to surge past Smoliga and win by the smallest of margins&#8211;.01 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Ruck claimed the gold in a time of 59.13, while Smoliga settled for second and a 59.14. Both athletes finished beneath the 2017 pool record of 59.38, set by\u00a0<strong>Ali Deloof<\/strong>. Additionally, their times shifted Ruck and Smoliga to third and fourth in the world rankings for 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Italy&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Federica Pellegrini<\/strong> grabbed third overall with a time of 1:00.56, followed by Canada&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jade Hannah<\/strong> and her time of 1:00.60.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexia Zevnik<\/strong> of Wolfpack Elite took fifth with a 1:00.83, just ahead of Italy&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Carlotta Zofkov&#8217;s<\/strong> 1:01.03.<\/p>\n<p>Deloof picked up seventh with a 1:01.62 and eighth went to Argentina&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Andrea Berrino<\/strong> and her 1:02.19.<\/p>\n<pre><b>                            === A -
