The first night of finals from the 2019 FINA World Cup in Singapore had ten total events with a meet record falling in the final event of the session. Russia’s\u00a0Vladimir Morozov\u00a0<\/strong>was a 21.27 in the 50 free to break his own World Cup record and also move up to second in the world for the year. Australia’s\u00a0Cate Campbell\u00a0<\/strong>had another stellar 50 free as she was a 24.02 which was faster than the gold medal winning time at the World Championships last month.<\/p>\n

Australia’s\u00a0Grant Irvine\u00a0<\/strong>and USA’s\u00a0Andrew Wilson\u00a0<\/strong>also swam season best times in the 100 fly and 100 breast to move into the top ten in the world for the year.<\/p>\n

Women’s 50 Free<\/h3>\n
Cate Campbell\u00a0<\/strong>blasted a 24.02 in the 50 free on Thursday night at the FINA World Cup in Singapore to win the event ahead of\u00a0Michelle Coleman\u00a0<\/strong>(24.65) and\u00a0Holly Barratt\u00a0<\/strong>(24.80). The time was nearly a season best for Campbell who sits second in the world for 2019. It was faster than what she swam at the World Championships when she won the bronze medal in this event. Her 24.02 actually would have won the gold medal at Worlds since\u00a0Simone Manuel\u00a0<\/strong>was a 24.05 to win there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Men’s 50 Free<\/h3>\n
Russia’s\u00a0Vladimir Morozov\u00a0<\/strong>won the 50 free final in a new World Cup record on Thursday night at the FINA World Cup in Singapore with a 21.27. Morozov lowered the meet record that he set last year at 21.49 in Kazan. The time is a season best for Morozov and would have easily won him the silver medal in Gwangju had he swam that time. He instead was fourth in Korea.<\/p>\n
USA’s\u00a0Michael Andrew\u00a0<\/strong>(21.78) finished in second as he was just off his season best of 21.62 from Worlds. Italy’s\u00a0Santo Condorelli\u00a0<\/strong>(22.21) was third.<\/p>\n
Morozov is now ranked second in the world for 2019.<\/p>\n

Men’s 100 Breast<\/h3>\n
USA’s\u00a0Andrew Wilson\u00a0<\/strong>swam a personal best in the 100 breast on Thursday night at the FINA World Cup in Singapore with a 58.93 to put himself sixth in the world. Wilson is also the fastest American this year as he is swimming in the third and final stop of the Asia cluster of the World Cup. He also swam at the World Championships so it is even more impressive that he is still able to swim faster on a fourth rest meet. Wilson was within striking distance of the American record of 58.64 that\u00a0Kevin Cordes\u00a0<\/strong>set in 2017. This was the second time Wilson has broken 59 since he was a 58.95 at the World Championships.<\/p>\n
Wilson finished ahead of Italy’s\u00a0Nicolo Martinenghi\u00a0<\/strong>(59.58) with those two being the only ones to break 60 seconds in the final. Martinenghi was a 59.2 at the Tokyo World Cup.<\/p>\n
Lithuania’s\u00a0Andrius Sidlauskas <\/strong>(1:00.08) finished in third place while Brazil’s Felipe Franca\u00a0<\/strong>(1:01.00), USA’s\u00a0Jonathan Tybur\u00a0<\/strong>(1:01.16) and Brazil’s\u00a0Raphael Rodrigues\u00a0<\/strong>(1:01.20) rounded out the top five.<\/p>\n
