FINA World Swimming Championships<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Gwangju 2019<\/em><\/p>\n

Day Seven Heats (Women’s 50 Breaststroke)<\/em><\/p>\n

14-year-old Italian\u00a0Benedetta Pilato<\/strong>, just the third youngest in the entire event, swam to the top seed in the 50 breaststroke on Saturday morning at the 2019 FINA World Swimming Championships in Gwangju, South Korea. Pilato was born January 18, 2005, and only two swimmers in the entire event are younger than her. Saint Lucia’s\u00a0Naima Hazell<\/strong> was born in June 2005 while Mali’s\u00a0Aichata Konate\u00a0<\/strong>was born in December.<\/p>\n

Despite her being so young, Pilato was the only swimmer to break 30 seconds in the heats of the 50 breast with a 29.98. World record holder and reigning World Champion\u00a0Lilly King<\/strong> qualified in the second spot at 30.18 as she is feeling a little more refreshed than some of her rivals since she was disqualified in the heats of the 200 breaststroke<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It was good,” King said. “I\u2019m honestly just glad I didn\u2019t have to do a turn in that race! So yeah \u2013 it felt pretty good, pretty easy.”<\/p>\n

King was disqualified for a non-simultaneous touch in the 200 breast prelims, which USA Swimming protested immediately after. The DQ was sent to a jury of appeal but the disqualification was solidified and King was not granted a spot in the semifinals.<\/p>\n

“I was just trying to stay calm throughout the whole process,” King said. The DQ wasn’t formally announced until an hour before the start of finals on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“I knew that Team USA was pulling out every stop they could to try and get the DQ overturned so keeping that in the back of my mind I think, just kind of kept me calm throughout the day. It is something you just have to deal with so I just have to put it past me and move on to the 50.”<\/p>\n

King was able to qualify without incident this morning as she is looking to win her second gold medal of the meet.<\/p>\n

Italian Martina Carraro\u00a0<\/strong>is the third seed at 30.38 as the Italians showed out well this morning. Veteran\u00a0Alia Atkinson<\/strong> (30.53) of Jamaica is seeded fourth while 2013 World Champ Yulia Efimova\u00a0<\/strong>(30.63) is seeded fifth for Russia.<\/p>\n

Australia’s\u00a0Jessica Hansen\u00a0<\/strong>(30.69), Belarus’\u00a0Alina Zmushka\u00a0<\/strong>(30.71) and Finland’s\u00a0Ida Hulkko\u00a0<\/strong>(30.72) also moved through to the semifinals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
