European Record-Holder &amp; Making Irish Swimming History<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Irishman&#8217;s previous best &#8211; and national record &#8211; was 14:51.79 en-route to silver at the <strong>2022 Commonwealth Games<\/strong> but he sliced a huge chunk of 16.88secs from that mark in the Swedish capital.<\/p>\n<p>Now the 21-year-old is the fourth-fastest man in history after producing the eighth-swiftest swim all-time.<\/p>\n<p>He becomes the 11th man inside 14:40 and will meet four others &#8211; <strong>Gregorio Paltrinieri<\/strong>, <strong>Florian Wellbrock<\/strong>, <strong>Bobby Finke<\/strong> and <strong>Mykhailo Romanchuk<\/strong> &#8211; at the <strong>World Championships<\/strong> in Fukuoka in July.<\/p>\n<h4>All-Time

final 100 of 56.49 was swifter than his opening 100 of 56.53 and his 800 split matched his Irish record of 7:46.32 set at the <strong>2022 World Championships<\/strong> in Budapest.<\/p>\n<p>He displaces Wellbrock at the top of the rankings, the 2019 world champion having posted 14:40.18 at the end of March.<\/p>\n<p>Behind him came Romanchuk in 14:40.21 with <strong>Henrik

Europeans.<\/p>\n<p>It moved him to within 2.54secs of\u00a0<strong>Grant Hackett\u2019<\/strong>s world record of 7:23.42 that has stood to the Australian great since July 2008.<\/p>\n<p>Wiffen has

free short-course champion.<\/p>\n<p>Since moving from the\u00a0<strong>Swim Ireland National Centre<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Dublin<\/strong>, Wiffen has consistently set about reducing his times and in 2022 has rewritten the Irish record books across the 400, 800 and 1500 free in both the long and short-course pools plus a 400IM mark of 4:11.05 in the latter.<\/p>\n<p>He also made history as the

with the men&#8217;s 200 free, two-time Olympian <strong>Danas Rapsys<\/strong> leading throughout to win in 1:45.86.<\/p>\n<p>Behind him came <strong>Aubock<\/strong> &#8211; replicating his second place in the 400 on Thursday &#8211; in 1:46.22 with <strong>Max Litchfield<\/strong> &#8211; swimming for Livorno Aquatics &#8211; third in 1:48.93.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Zaitsev<\/strong> added
