Arno Kamminga Enjoys Return To Dutch Waters With 100m Breaststroke Title<\/h4>\n

Arno Kamminga won the 100m breaststroke as he continues to enjoy his return to Dutch waters at the national short course championships in Rotterdam.<\/p>\n

The double Olympic silver medallist relocated to Hong Kong to train under Tom Rushton<\/a> in May after coach Mark Faber’s switch to the top role with the Belgium national team.<\/p>\n

Kamminga took eight months away from the pool following Paris 2024 where he finished sixth in the 100m breaststroke before withdrawing from the 200 following prelims.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, the 30-year-old took the national title in 57.31 – well within the 57.63 QT for short-course Europeans – with Koen de Groot also inside the cut with both men also qualifying in the 50.<\/p>\n

The final day includes the 200 breast in which Kamminga’s former training partner Caspar Corbeau broke the WR<\/a> at the World Cup in Toronto as he became the first man inside the 2min mark in 1:59.52.<\/p>\n

Fourteen qualification times for December’s European s\/c Championships in Poland were achieved on Saturday following 13 on the opening day.<\/p>\n

Thom de Boer<\/strong> (21.31), Kenzo Simons<\/strong> (21.35) and Brandon van den Berg<\/strong> (21.37) were all inside the 21.40 cut in the men’s 50 free with Valerie van Roon<\/strong> the only woman to break 24secs in 23.99. Milou van Wijk<\/strong> was next home in 24.19 – after winning the 100 – with Tessa Giele<\/strong> (24.20) adding a third swim to her programme following the 50 fly and 50 breast.<\/p>\n

Maaike de Waard<\/strong> was well inside the 100 back cut in 56.72 to book a second slot in Lublin following her 50 fly gold. Imani de Jong<\/strong> (4:05.26) and Marte Hieke van der Kamp<\/strong> (4:08.54) both booked a place in the women’s 400 free with Tiago Gomes<\/strong> inside the QT in the men’s equivalent in 3:43.75 to secure his second swim in Lublin following his QT in the 800.<\/p>\n

Just two women contested the 200 fly with Britain’s Keanna MacInnes<\/strong> touching first in 2:09.28. Evy Rozeboom’s<\/strong> time of 2:09.64 in second was sufficient for a berth in Poland.<\/p>\n

Thomas Jansen<\/strong> eased to victory in the men’s 400IM in 4:07.41 to book a ticket for Poland with Britain’s Tom Dean<\/strong> second in 4:13.15. Dean’s British teammate Katie Shanahan<\/strong> won the women’s long medley in 4:36.41.<\/p>\n
