Competition took place in swimming, track and weightlifting, with the majority of competitors having taken performance-enhancing drugs banned in conventional competition. Nine swimming events were on the docket, each with four competitors racing with the aid of polyurethane bodysuits banned from the sport since 2010.<\/p>\n<p>The Enhanced organization has advertised its &#8220;superhuman athletes&#8221; breaking world records, although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/cam-mcevoy-weighs-in-on-enhanced-games-no-world-record-will-be-recognized\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">no records achieved during this competition will be recognized<\/a> by World Aquatics or any other international body. Last year,\u00a0<strong>Kristian Gkolomeev<\/strong> provided initial proof-of-concept when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/enhanced-games-slated-for-2026-memorial-day-weekend-kristian-gkolomeev-goes-faster-than-50-free-world-record\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">he swam faster than the existing world record in the 50 freestyle<\/a> after taking PEDs and donning a banned suit, and he came close to surpassing another all-time best at the Vegas event.<\/p>\n<p>Gkolomeev won the men&#8217;s 100 free in 46.60, two seconds quicker than his best time of 48.68 from his professional career. The Greek swimmer finished almost 1.5 seconds clear of his competitors. <strong>Hunter Armstrong <\/strong>of the United States, racing as a non-enhanced athlete, finished second in 48.09, followed by Ireland&#8217;s <strong>Shane Ryan<\/strong> (48.92) and Australia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>James Magnussen<\/strong> (49.44).<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after, the most successful swimmer to defect to the Enhanced Games claimed victory in his first event, swimming a time just five hundredths slower than the world record.\u00a0<strong>Ben Proud<\/strong> of Great Britain finished the 50 butterfly in 22.32, compared to the world record of 22.27 set by\u00a0<strong>Andriy Govorov<\/strong> of Ukraine in 2018. Govorov was also in the race, placing second in 22.66, ahead of Germany&#8217;s <strong>Marius Kusch<\/strong> (22.92) and Ireland&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Max McCusker<\/strong> (23.39).<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the day, Armstrong finished well ahead of the field in the 50 backstroke. Armstrong joined the Games with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/hunter-armstrong-plans-to-compete-in-enhanced-games-without-peds-still-hopes-for-la28\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hopes of securing the financial resources required to continue his professional career<\/a> through the Los Angeles Olympics. Armstrong swam a time of 24.21, well off his career-best time of 23.71 which still stands as the American record. Ryan finished second in 25.23, with\u00a0Egypt&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Sohib Khaled<\/strong> third (25.68) and Bulgaria&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Antani Ivanov<\/strong> fourth (25.76).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cody Miller<\/strong> made his Enhanced Games debut with a 50 breaststroke time of 26.55, much quicker than the 27.24 at which he topped out during his pro career. Miller was followed to the wall by Brazil&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Felipe Lima<\/strong> (26.98), Russia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Evgenii Somov<\/strong> (27.21) and Mexico&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Miguel de Lara Ojeda<\/strong> (27.82). Miller became a double winner later in the session: he topped the 100 breast in 59.47, finishing narrowly ahead of Somov (59.61) while Lima (1:01.94) and de Lara (1:02.86) completed the field.<\/p>\n<p>The first women&#8217;s event, the 50 freestyle, went to Great Britain&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Emily Barclay<\/strong> in 24.09. That was well ahead of her conventional best of 24.94.\u00a0<strong>Megan Romano<\/strong>, the American who returned to the sport to compete in the Enhanced Games, swam a time of 24.55 for second, ahead of Colombia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Isabella Arcila<\/strong> (25.12) and Poland&#8217;s <strong>Natalia Fryckowska<\/strong> (26.14)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enhanced Games: Kristian Gkolomeev Clocks 46.60 in 100 Free;
