Trailing veteran <strong>Emily Seebohm<\/strong> by a slim margin at the turn, McKeown pulled away over the last 50 meters to win the 100-meter backstroke at the Australian Championships on the Gold Coast. McKeown stopped the clock in 58.60, with Seebohm taking runnerup honors in 59.22.<\/p>\n<p>By securing her first Aussie title, McKeown denied Seebohm&#8217;s chase for her 12th crown and further established herself as a leading medal contender at the <a href=\"https:\/\/tokyo2020.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tokyo Games<\/a>. McKeown owns the Australian record in the 100 backstroke at 57.93 and is widely considered the premier threat to American teenager <strong>Regan Smith<\/strong>, the world-record holder at 57.57.<\/p>\n<p>Seebohm covered the first lap in 28.74, with McKeown just behind in 28.88. Over the last 50 meters, McKeown split 29.72 to generate a comfortable margin over Seebohm, who split 30.48 for the last lap.<\/p>\n<p>By cracking the 59-second barrier, McKeown added to a strong day of backstroke around the world.
