Arno Kamminga<\/strong> returned from his maiden voyage through the 58-second barrier in the 100 breaststroke to go 2:07.71 over 200m at the Netherlands Team Time Trials<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

There was also a Dutch 100 fly record of 51.65 in the morning for Nyls Korstanje<\/strong> as he eclipsed Joeri Verlinden<\/strong>‘s previous mark\u00a0 of 51.75 which had stood since 2012.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the 25-year-old will begin to rest and taper for the European Championships<\/strong> in Budapest<\/strong> later this month where world record-holder Adam Peaty<\/strong> awaits.<\/p>\n
Ilya Shymanovich<\/strong> – until Friday the second-fastest man in history in 58.29 – and Nicolo Martinenghi<\/strong>, who stands fourth all-time after his 58.37 at the Italian Championships last month, will also line up for a fascinating 100br at the Duna Arena.<\/strong><\/p>\n
As well as writing his own line in the 100br record books, Kamminga is one of just five men who have gained entry to the 2:06 club in the 200 after going 2:06.85 in December.<\/a><\/p>\n
The three-time European short-course champion returned to the water on Saturday morning to go 2:08.57.<\/p>\n
Come the evening and he delivered the fifth-fastest time of his career in 2:07.71 and third in the world this year.<\/p>\n
Splits: 29.31\/1:02.14 (32.83)\/1:35.19 (33.05)\/2:07.71 (32.52)<\/p>\n
If the 100 is set to be a battle royale in Budapest, the 200 is also poised to be a fascinating tussle.<\/p>\n
Kamminga will face world record-holder Anton Chupkov<\/strong>, three years after the Russian set what was then a continental mark of 2:06.80 en-route to gold at the 2018 Europeans in Glasgow in which the Netherlands swimmer was seventh in 2:09.87.<\/p>\n
Glasgow silver medallist James Wilby, Kirill Prigoda, Ross Murdoch<\/strong> and Olympic champion Dmitriy Balandin<\/strong> also await.<\/p>\n

Korstanje missed out on Olympic qualification<\/a> by an agonising 0.01 despite setting a PB of 51.93 at the Eindhoven Qualification Meet last month.<\/p>\n
The 22-year-old does have another chance in Budapest and on Saturday morning he absolutely took that time apart in 51.65.<\/p>\n
Splits: 23.75\/51.65 (27.90)<\/p>\n
Although it’s not a qualification meet, it will offer Korstanje confidence come the hour where he must match or get inside 51.92 to book a trip to Tokyo.<\/p>\n
Kira Toussaint<\/strong> twice went 58 over 100 back with a 58.92 effort in the morning followed by 58.87 in the evening.<\/p>\n
Jesse Puts<\/strong> stopped the clock at 22.14 in the 50 free with\u00a0Kim Busch<\/strong> going 54.90 over 100 free.<\/p>\n
