Kliment Kolesnikov<\/strong>\u00a0lowered his own 50 back world record for the second time in as many days as he went 23.80 at the European Championships.<\/p>\n

The Russian had first set a global mark of 24.00 at the 2018 Europeans in Glasgow, a time he reduced to 23.93 in Monday\u2019s semi-finals.<\/p>\n

Come the final and Kolesnikov sliced a further 0.13 off as he claimed his second gold of the championships following his anchor leg on Russia\u2019s 4\u00d7100 free quartet.<\/p>\n

He said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know what to say.<\/p>\n

\u201cI swam 100m free (semi-final) fifteen minutes ago so I was a bit tired. At the same time, I was full of energy, mental energy and just tried fire myself up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s all, I have nothing more to say.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Call Italian teenager\u00a0Benedetta Pilato<\/strong>\u00a0the greedy type \u2013 at least when it comes to racing breaststroke.<\/p>\n

The 16-year-old, just hours removed from\u00a0establishing a world junior record<\/a>\u00a0in the 50-meter breaststroke, clearly wanted a little bit more and blasted the overall world record in the event during semifinal action at the European Championships in Budapest on Saturday. Clocking in at 29.30 inside the Duna Arena, Pilato shaved a tenth of a second off the 29.40 mark that American\u00a0Lilly King<\/strong>\u00a0delivered at the 2017\u00a0World Championships<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was quite a day for Pilato, who earlier in the week was relegated to spectator status for the semifinals and final of the 100 breaststroke. Although Pilato had the fourth-fastest time of prelims in the 100 breast, she was bettered by countrywomen\u00a0Arianna<\/strong>\u00a0Castiglioni<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Martina Carraro<\/strong>, and the two-per-country rule locked Pilato out of further action in the event.<\/p>\n

The Week That Was #3: Sun Yang Re-Trial Set For This Week<\/h3>\n

The Court of Arbitration for Sport announced on Tuesday that it will hold the retrial of China\u2019s\u00a0Sun Yang<\/strong>\u00a0next week, with May 25-27 slated for the private hearing, which will be conducted by video link. Sun was originally found guilty of violating anti-doping rules and\u00a0given an eight-year ban<\/a>, but the Olympic-champion freestyler appealed the verdict to the Swiss Federal Tribunal.<\/p>\n

The Swiss court ruled that a member of the three-person CAS panel,\u00a0Franco Frattini<\/strong>, made biased comments on social media and sent the case back to the Court of Arbitration for Sport for retrial. Two months shy of the\u00a0Olympic Games in Tokyo<\/a>, Sun\u2019s case will be heard by a new three-member panel. If Sun is found not guilty of violations, he will be eligible to defend his Olympic title later this summer. If the retrial results in a guilty verdict, Sun\u2019s career will be all but over.<\/p>\n

With the Olympics just months away,\u00a0Norimasa Hirai<\/strong>\u00a0will retire as chairman of the Japan Swimming Federation.<\/p>\n

According to Yahoo Japan, Hirai\u2019s retirement was approved by the Japanese swimming committee on May 10.<\/p>\n

Hirai coached Olympic gold medalist\u00a0Kosuke Kitajima<\/strong>\u00a0and was named the head coach of the Japan national team after the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He began serving as chairman of the Japanese Swimming Federation in 2015.<\/p>\n

The replacement will be announced with the June re-election of Japan Swimming Federation officers, according to the report.<\/p>\n

There are multiple candidates who are possible candidates to replace Hirai.<\/p>\n

Takayuki Umehara<\/strong>, who has coached\u00a0Daiya Seto<\/strong>\u00a0in the past, is a candidate to take over the post,\u00a0according to Yahoo Japan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

\n<\/div>\n

Another emerging candidate is\u00a0Daichi Suzuki,<\/strong>\u00a0the former commissioner of the Japan Sports Agency, as well as a member of the\u00a0International Swimming Hall of Fame Class of 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Eight-time individual NCAA champion\u00a0Ella Eastin\u00a0<\/strong>has officially announced her retirement from the sport of swimming after a successful career at Stanford University and SoCal Swim Club. Eastin shared she developed chronic fatigue and dysautonomia \u2013 \u201ca nervous system disorder that affects my cardiovascular health, my energy, my mental stability and so much more,\u201d she wrote on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past year and a half, I have been battling a seemingly undiagnosable illness that incapacitated me. I lost my ability to manage daily activities and had to be taken care of by family and friends. I couldn\u2019t live a normal life, much less one of a professional athlete,\u201d Ella Eastin wrote on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cI finally decided that for the first time, the health of my body and mind had to take priority. Those that know me are aware that I have previously happily sacrificed my time and wellbeing for this sport. This wasn\u2019t an option this time around as I couldn\u2019t finish a warm up, much less a whole practice. I tried for months, praying that one day I would wake up feeling \u201cnormal\u201d again. I was finally assured that my thoughts and feelings were justified when I found a doctor that was able to tell me that I developed chronic fatigue and dysautonomia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eastin received an NCAA postgraduate scholarship where she will pursue a lifelong dream of becoming a registered nurse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
