There he lowered <strong>Yannick K\u00e4ser\u2019s<\/strong> standard of 2:06.42 that had stood since 2017 to 2:05.05. He then returned in the evening to lower it once more to 2:03.83 while booking a spot on the team for the World Short Course Championships in Beijing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Roman Mityukov<\/strong> secured two championship titles on the opening day, each with a new personal best. First up was the 50m backstroke in 23.51secs before adding the 50m freestyle in 21.64.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No\u00e8 Ponti<\/strong> lived up to his role as favourite in the 100m butterfly. He secured gold in 48.25, 0.54 off his European record (47.71).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gian-Luca Gartmann<\/strong> (4:05.98) and <strong>Marius Toscan<\/strong> (4:08.22) also bought the ticket for Beijing in the 400IM.<\/p>\n<p>While Ponti, Mityukov and <strong>Flavio Bucca<\/strong> are already pre-selected due to their performances last season, <strong>Thierry Bollin<\/strong> and <strong>Antonio Djakovic<\/strong> also went inside the cut for short-course worlds ahead of Lausanne.
