My mentality going through that is I&#8217;ve got to approach this as if I am running through a brick wall, be ready to put myself through that type of\u00a0 pain so in the race I didn&#8217;t hold back. I put myself in a good position. The last 50 wasn&#8217;t there tonight but I wouldn&#8217;t have done anything differently there.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Next up is the 4x100m medley relay in the penultimate event of the programme on Sunday in which the United States are defending champions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m actually starting to feel better as the week goes on,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think in the individual 100 back, I just spun at the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the medley relay (mixed relay) I was a little bit better but I think I was pretty soft in the turn, pretty soft in that breakout off the turn so those are two areas I&#8217;m going to target for the relay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was Greenbank&#8217;s first senior international medal and follows a difficult transition from a successful junior career in which he broke the world junior record en-route to gold at the European Games in Baku in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old is coached by<strong> Mel Marshall<\/strong>, the former Olympian who has guided <strong>Adam Peaty<\/strong> through a timewarp.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;We have a really good group down in Loughborough. We&#8217;ve got <strong>James Wilby<\/strong>, <strong>Molly Renshaw<\/strong>, <strong>Max Litchfield<\/strong> here as well. It&#8217;s a really good group.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Greenbank set a new personal best of 0.04secs to remain third on the British all-time list behind <strong>James Goddard<\/strong>, who set the national record back in 2010 at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi, and<strong> Craig McNally<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div>&#8220;I&#8217;m really pleased with that,&#8221; he said. &#8220;A little PB and to be in the medals at World Championships is a dream come true.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;Those guys (Rylov and Murphy) are heroes of mine really. And to race in there with those competitors, I&#8217;m really really pleased to hold my own and hopefully catch up a little bit next year. It was a great experience.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div class=\"gs\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<div id=\":1ep\" class=\"ii gt\">\n<div id=\":tl\" class=\"a3s aXjCH \">\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div
