The 21-year-old Champion led home a flurry of NSW swimmers, clocking 23.94 to win the 50m butterfly – his first time under 24 seconds.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Champion finished ahead of Uni Sport National record holder William Yang<\/strong>\u00a0(Loreto Normanhurst) 24.08; fellow UTS swimmer\u00a0Ed Marks<\/strong>\u00a0(Carlile) 24.25 and Auburn\u2019s\u00a0Alex Quach<\/strong> (24.37)\u00a0 at the Australian Championships on the Gold Coast last month.<\/p>\n

The \u2018fly remains an option for freestyle gun, Chalmers who will front Australia\u2019s top Tokyo hopes over 100 and 200m freestyle, but the Peter Bishop-coached South Australian has trodden warily in his return from his December shoulder surgery.<\/p>\n

Chalmers presence in the butterfly adds another major factor to this meet in the lead up to the crucial Australian Olympic Swim Trials in Adelaide from June 12-17 at the SA Aquatic and Leisure Centre.<\/p>\n

The men\u2019s freestyle events here will also see Chalmers lead a full-on assault with the majority of the top 10 finalists from the Australian Open in the line ups.<\/p>\n
