In textile, Scott, coached by <strong>Steven Tigg<\/strong> at the University of Stirling, is now No4 all-time in textile, just 0.12sec away from the Commonwealth record shared at 1:40.80 by Canadian <strong>Brent Hayden<\/strong>, from 2009, and Australian <strong>Cameron McEvoy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>The Top 4 All-Time In Textile<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>1:39.70 Yannick Agnel FRA 2012<\/li>\n<li>1:40.80\u00a0Cameron McEvoy AUS 2015<\/li>\n<li>1:40.85 Danas Rapsys LTU 2017<\/li>\n<li>1:40.92 Duncan Scott GBR 2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Scott&#8217;s scorching effort this morning follows his national mark in the long-course 200m when he became the first British man to dip inside 1:45 when he led off the 4x200m freestyle relay at the World Championships in Gwangju in 1:44.91.<\/p>\n<p>Scott was 1.60secs ahead of Russian <strong>Mikhail Vekovishchev<\/strong> who qualified second for Thursday\u2019s final with Guy swimming his best time for three years in 1:42.57 to progress in third, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/danas-rapsys-roars-to-meet-mark-333-20-victory-over-400m-at-european-championships\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Danas Rapsys<\/strong> \u2013 who set a new championship record and personal best en-route to the 400m free title on Wednesday<\/a> \u2013 the next through.<\/p>\n<p>The championship record set by Paul Biedermann in December 2009, as the shiny-suit farce that so distorted the sport drew to an end, is 1.11secs ahead of Scott&#8217;s new high.<\/p>\n<p>Scott could barely speak following his 400IM heat but explained that his fast morning swimming was all part of the plan looking to Tokyo 2020.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>He told Swimming World: &#8220;I am treating the heats here like finals: all-in in the mornings, just trying to challenge myself, I knew this was going to be a tough double to go all-in on both of them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s going to be even tougher next year so that was a really tough turnaround but I am delighted with both those swims. It\u2019s hurting a lot but that\u2019s why I came, I came to really challenge myself and really just expose myself under immense bits of fatigue and see what happens you know.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My pull off the wall or how my technique is and deal with it so this is exactly what I am trying to get out of it but I am hurting!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Usually my strongest part is my freestyle but that breaststroke I was hurting so bad. The reason I am doing it is simply to challenge myself: I am not a 400IM swimmer, I used to be but not so much any more. So I can get away with it short-course but as I say it is really good preparation for next year for the 200IM, doing that long-course. It\u2019s a really tough event but I am glad that I have done it and I\u2019ll get a lot out of it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_384866\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-384866\" data-attachment-id=\"384866\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1002\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;ILCE-7SM2&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1564292983&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.003125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"team-great-britian-4&#215;100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;7\/28\/19&lt;br \/&gt;\nteam-great-britian-4&#215;100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Becca Wyant&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2-1024x684.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-384866\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"team-great-britian-4x100-medley-relay-2019-world-championships_2\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-384866\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Becca Wyant<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There was a nod to team-mates Guy and Tom Dean who returned to the pool the morning after claiming 400 free silver, finishing seventh overall in 1:43.32 only to miss out with just the top two per nation progressing.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Scott said: &#8220;Last year I had a bit of a compromised short-course season with that slight injury so I didn\u2019t really get to see what I was really capable of and I wasn\u2019t really able to push things so hard last year at this time. This year I came in and my speed has felt really good, PBs quite a bit on the 50 free and things like that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think Jimmy (Guy) would be able to say he could probably go quicker than that as well. Deano (Tom Dean) is there and he had the 400 last night so to come back and go 1:43 is impressive. We are getting plenty of depth in that 200: that is me all-in, Jimmy could go 1:40 tonight and go quicker, I reckon he has probably got a wee bit left so it\u2019s great to have that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve been on teams with Jimmy for years now and he is someone I was able to look up to, world champion in 2015, and it\u2019s great to be able to race and train with him.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There were several notable performances in the heats with the Tollcross water clearly suiting many.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_288704\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-288704\" data-attachment-id=\"288704\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/european-short-course-swimming-championships-38\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Kliment-Kolesnikov-Euro-Championships-2017.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1000,666\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Foto Giorgio Scala \\\/ Deepbluemedia \\\/Insidefoto&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D4S&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;KOLESNIKOV Kliment RUS Gold Medal\\nMEN - 100 M BACKSTROKE - FINAL\\nCopenhagen 15-12-2017 Royal Arena \\nLEN European Short Course Swimming \\nChampionships - Campionati Europei nuoto vasca corta\\nFoto \\u00a9 Giorgio Scala \\\/ Deepbluemedia&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1513361812&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Foto \\u00a9 Giorgio Scala \\\/ Deepbluemedia \\\/Insidefoto&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;3200&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.000625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;European Short Course Swimming Championships&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"European Short Course Swimming Championships\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;12\/16\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\n12\/13\/17&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Foto Giorgio Scala \/ Deepbluemedia \/Insidefoto&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Kliment-Kolesnikov-Euro-Championships-2017-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Kliment-Kolesnikov-Euro-Championships-2017.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-288704\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Kliment-Kolesnikov-Euro-Championships-2017-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-288704\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Foto Giorgio Scala \/ Deepbluemedia \/Insidefoto<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Kliment Kolesnikov\u00a0<\/strong>was a surprise absentee from Wednesday&#8217;s 200m backstroke final in which he was the defending champion but he ensured there was no repeat in the 100m as he led the way in an eye-opening 49.52.<\/p>\n<p>That is 0.62secs off his European and world junior records and 0.55 outside the championship record held jointly by his fellow Russians <strong>Stanislav Donets<\/strong> and <strong>Arkady Vyatchanin<\/strong>, the pair setting the mark of 48.97 10 years ago in Istanbul when Kolesnikov was nine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shane Ryan<\/strong> was second through in a new Irish record of 50.45 but there was no room in the semis for 200m champion and double 100m gold medallist <strong>Radoslaw Kawecki<\/strong> who was 19th.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gregorio Paltrinieri<\/strong> went 14:18.10 to progress first in a 1,500 freestyle that promises much.
