Why? Well, when <strong>Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> is in the race, world records are on watch. Ultimately, the super-suit standard survived, but not before Titmus and training partner <strong>Mollie O&#8217;Callaghan<\/strong> engaged in a superb duel at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre.<\/p>\n<p>The reigning Olympic champion, Titmus withstood a late charge from O&#8217;Callaghan to prevail in 1:53.89. O&#8217;Callaghan was just behind in a career-best of 1:54.01 and, given the way she was surging, simply ran out of room. Australia completed a sweep of the podium when <strong>Madison Wilson<\/strong> touched the wall in 1:56.17, ahead of England&#8217;s <strong>Freya Anderson<\/strong>, who was fourth in 1:56.83.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/results.birmingham2022.com\/#\/athletic-sports-schedule\/SWM\/*\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Meet Results<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When Titmus took down <strong>Katie Ledecky\u2019s<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/australias-ariarne-titmus-terminates-the-400m-freestyle-world-record-in-adelaide-clocking-356-40\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">world record in the 400 freestyle<\/a> at the Australian Trials in May, that performance also begged a question: When will the Olympic champion break the long-standing record of Pellegrini in the 200 freestyle? Prior to Commonwealths, Titmus had approached the world record on three occasions, including a best of 1:53.09. At Commonwealths, she was under world-record pace through the opening lap. Titmus now owns four sub-1:54 efforts during her career.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_509936\" style=\"width: 370px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-509936\" data-attachment-id=\"509936\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/commonwealth-games-ariarne-titmus-fights-off-furious-charge-by-mollie-ocallaghan-for-gold-in-200-freestyle\/ariarne-titmus-10\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Ariarne-Titmus.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1100,733\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1659121759&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Ariarne Titmus\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;8\/3\/22&lt;br \/&gt;\nAriarne Titmus&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Ariarne-Titmus-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Ariarne-Titmus-1024x682.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-509936\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Ariarne-Titmus-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"Ariarne Titmus\" width=\"360\" height=\"257\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-509936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Titmus was out in 27.01 and went through the midway point of the race in 56.14, with O&#8217;Callaghan following at 56.76. With 50 meters remaining, Titmus was at 1:24.97, followed by O&#8217;Callaghan at 1:25.73. Down the last length, O&#8217;Callaghan closed the gap with each stroke and punctuated her swim with a split of 28.28, compared to the 28.92 of Titmus.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMol\u2019s been killing it in training,&#8221; Titmus said. &#8220;She\u2019s young, she\u2019s fiesty, she\u2019s hungry and I knew she\u2019d be there. It\u2019s fun to have a race. I\u2019m pretty happy with the time considering the prep that I\u2019ve had.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>En route to her Commonwealth Games record, Titmus aided a spectacular start to competition by the Australians, who also swept the medals in the men&#8217;s 400 freestyle. Coached by Dean Boxall, Titmus opted to skip the World Championships last month in Budapest and place her attention on Birmingham. She still has work ahead in the 400 freestyle and 800 freestyle, along with the 800 freestyle relay.<\/p>\n<p>At this point in her career, Titmus is following a two-year plan toward the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, where she will chase repeats of her Tokyo Olympic titles in the 200 freestyle and 400 freestyle. Along the way, Pellegrini&#8217;s world record might come into play, and O&#8217;Callaghan is a domestic foe who can provide a boost in the case.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Titmus, O&#8217;Callaghan chose to race at the World Championships and enjoyed a superb meet, highlighted by a gold medal in the 100 freestyle. She also won the silver medal in the 200 freestyle, with her time from Birmingham more than a second faster than the 1:55.22 she managed in Budapest.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_509798\" style=\"width:
