Pilato&#8217;s time this morning was announced as a World junior record and remains that on the official start sheet for finals but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/pilato-sets-first-world-junior-mark-in-50-breast-two-italian-records-fall-at-nico-sapio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">she clocked a 29.41 Italian junior mark at the Nico Sappio meet last month<\/a>, which, if ratified, would mean today&#8217;s announced world junior mark will not actually establish a new global standard.<\/p>\n<p>She would be the first holder of the new junior short-course record, the target time for swimmers eligible to break the mark set at 29.86. FINA does not backdate such standards and therefore the efforts of <strong>Ruta Meilutyte<\/strong> and others will never count as World junior records. Meilutyte, the Olympic 100m champion at 15, clocked 28.81 in semi-finals at the 2014 World Short-Course Championships on her way to the global crown in 28.84.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_382965\"

Tollcross water having won two relay silvers at the European (50m) Championships in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands swimmer has been on a record-breaking tour de force in recent months and her time of 55.26 marked the 10<sup>th<\/sup> time she has lowered her national record this season.<\/p>\n<p>Given that Hosszu will be absent from the backstroke events in Glasgow, a new champion will be crowned and Toussaint leads the field into tonight\u2019s semi-final by 1.69secs, 0.23secs outside the Hungarian\u2019s European record.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maria Kamaneva<\/strong>, who won bronze last time out in Copenhagen, <strong>Simona Kubova<\/strong> and <strong>Georgia Davies<\/strong> all made it safely through.<\/p>\n<p>Greenbank, the world bronze medallist, arrived in Glasgow with a personal best of 1:51.16 but he took that time apart in the heats, touching in 1:50.47 to qualify third for tonight\u2019s final behind <strong>Christian Diener<\/strong> and <strong>Radoslaw Kawecki<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>It also cut 0.26secs from the previous national record held by<strong> Chris Walker-Hebborn<\/strong> since August 2009 when the sport was at the height of its shiny-suit farce.<\/p>\n<p>Of note was the failure of defending champion and world junior record holder <strong>Kliment Kolesnikov<\/strong> to progress automatically and is instead a reserve.<\/p>\n<div
