:00:36. > :00:44.Linford Christie! And the British captain is the Olympic champion!
:00:44. > :00:51.They are going for gold! She is getting the cheer of the games. He's
:00:51. > :00:56.one nothing but admiration. Some cities can inspire. That is utterly
:00:56. > :01:01.brilliant! That is a fantastic silver medal for Britain! But this
:01:01. > :01:11.isn't just any city. This is Barcelona. Welcome to the World
:01:11. > :01:48.
:01:48. > :01:50.highlights of the World Swimming Championships. Our BBC new girl
:01:51. > :01:56.Rebecca Adlington and Mark Foster have been beside me for the last
:01:56. > :02:00.week or so. We look back on a great week of racing here over the next
:02:00. > :02:04.hour and a half. The stars have shone brightly just as they did in
:02:04. > :02:14.London a year ago, and if you need a minder of the biggest names in
:02:14. > :02:53.
:02:53. > :02:57.swimming, have a look at this. -- if this!
:02:57. > :03:01.One of those stars up first is coming in the 400 meter freestyle,
:03:01. > :03:05.Sun Yang took gold in that event in London and he is looking for a
:03:05. > :03:09.golden trouble here in Barcelona. Look out as well for 17-year-old
:03:09. > :03:15.James Guy. This is his first major swimming Championships, could be
:03:15. > :03:21.swimming Championships, could be something big.
:03:21. > :03:31.The 17-year-old has done a wonderful thing by getting to the final. Well
:03:31. > :03:33.
:03:33. > :03:39.pace, Sun Yang of China and his strength is the second half but
:03:39. > :03:44.still going very well, the 17-year-old from Britain. But there
:03:44. > :03:50.are Sun Yang in the centre. James Guy on the right-hand side of the
:03:50. > :04:00.shot, and it is difficult to follow for these -- from these picture, I'm
:04:00. > :04:01.
:04:01. > :04:07.afraid. James Guy, third or fourth. The 23rd from Washington, in the
:04:07. > :04:17.black cap, they've been talking quite highly of that guy. They are
:04:17. > :04:17.
:04:17. > :04:22.pinning some hopes on Yeager. Sun Yang comes back as a rocket.
:04:22. > :04:30.Interestingly, he set such a hard pace. 100 metres to go in the final
:04:30. > :04:35.of this freestyle. And Sun Yang is behind the world-record pace. Has he
:04:35. > :04:45.gone out to quick? He is so fast coming back. Sun Yang is leading. At
:04:45. > :04:49.
:04:49. > :04:52.the top, is the American. Sun Yan has spotted him. Down the bottom,
:04:52. > :05:01.James Guy is paying for his first hundred metres. He is an eighth
:05:01. > :05:08.place, tailing off. But Sun Yang, they have taken the world record of
:05:08. > :05:14.our image because he has fallen short of that now. So, he does come
:05:14. > :05:22.back very fast indeed. He has a spurt. He's going to be just outside
:05:22. > :05:26.the world-record. He was on pace all the way through. Hagino, a great
:05:26. > :05:34.swim from him. Colin Jaeger has got the bronze. James Guy has finished
:05:34. > :05:39.in fifth. His first final, very good indeed from the young Brit, 17 years
:05:39. > :05:45.of age. But the champion, Sun Yang of China. That was a great swim from
:05:45. > :05:53.him. He has not had the best of years, but to get to 3.41 is very
:05:53. > :06:00.good indeed. The Japanese, Hagino, came through. He seems to be
:06:00. > :06:05.challenging Brian Lochte for those titles. James Guy, that must have
:06:05. > :06:10.hurt him, one for the future. Confirmation of the result of the
:06:10. > :06:18.first final. Sunny Yang wins gold, Hagino of Japan, a great medal for
:06:19. > :06:22.them. Jaeger in third. James Guy in them. Jaeger in third. James Guy in
:06:22. > :06:25.fifth. Sun Yang, a superstar. He has had his problems since the Olympics.
:06:25. > :06:30.He has had to change training camps, and this is an emotional week for
:06:30. > :06:36.him. It was a huge swim and you can see how much these races mean to
:06:36. > :06:40.him. Changing coaches, that can be an adaptation period, but it shows
:06:40. > :06:44.you he's got everything right again. His training has one very well. It
:06:44. > :06:50.is a matter of when he breaks that world-record. He is so far ahead of
:06:50. > :06:54.the rest of the field, it is about him and the clock. Hagino, and name
:06:54. > :06:59.to look out for. 18 years old. Our compatriots from Japanese television
:06:59. > :07:03.have got a massive cutout form him. They're expecting big things.
:07:04. > :07:09.are comparing him to Phelps. He has got a big week as well. He's got a
:07:09. > :07:16.lot of races. It would be nice to see what he can do. It is going to
:07:16. > :07:18.be a good week from him, and hopefully he can get some models.
:07:18. > :07:23.Testing the water at these championships and seeing what it is
:07:23. > :07:30.all about, it is all in the build-up. Boys of 17 or 18 are in a
:07:30. > :07:35.perfect position to Rio. They are getting up there, but they are
:07:35. > :07:39.probably likely to be on the podium in Rio. The other problem for him,
:07:39. > :07:45.getting labelled the next Michael Phelps by your country is a tall
:07:45. > :07:49.order. American teenage sensation Ledecky is also going for a golden
:07:49. > :07:55.trouble. She sprang to our attention in London winning gold in the 800
:07:55. > :07:58.metres. Her first event, the 400 metres freestyle. Have a look out
:07:58. > :08:04.for a resurgent Jaz Carlin, who seems to have found form once more
:08:04. > :08:08.seems to have found form once more since Becky's retirement.
:08:08. > :08:14.Katie Ledecky, the fastest qualifier, but Jaz Colin goes in
:08:14. > :08:18.three, and she looked very good in the heats. -- Jaz Carlin. Coming up
:08:18. > :08:27.to the halfway mark. Katie Ledecky has gone off like a shot. She is
:08:27. > :08:31.under the world-record. I can tell you that Great Britain's Jaz Carlin
:08:31. > :08:38.now in sixth, she is moving through the field and looking good. Becky,
:08:38. > :08:42.what do you think about her? She is in a good position. Katie is next to
:08:42. > :08:47.her, it is disheartening to see how far ahead she is, but she is in a
:08:47. > :08:56.great position, so, hopefully, she can bring it back. She's looking
:08:56. > :09:00.good. She has gone into fourth position. I think Ledecky is going
:09:00. > :09:07.to probably smash this world-record. It'll be interesting to see whether
:09:07. > :09:14.Jaz Carlin can get ahead of the Spanish girl, in second place. Jaz
:09:14. > :09:21.Carlin, third place now. Kapas is also there. Camille Muffat down the
:09:21. > :09:27.bottom has gone. So, 100 metres to go, Ledecky, ahead of world-record
:09:27. > :09:34.pace and she is looking very strong indeed. Ledecky leads, second is the
:09:34. > :09:39.Spaniard. Lauren Boyle is third. Jaz Carlin has moved up to fourth. This
:09:39. > :09:42.is the strongest part of her race. World-record is still on there, but
:09:42. > :09:48.Katie Ledecky has to keep on pushing. Will it go? She looks
:09:48. > :09:55.absolutely. It was always Pellegrini is, the record. But she's going very
:09:55. > :10:03.strong. Jaz Carlin, she needs to dig deep, she could do it! Lauren Boyle
:10:03. > :10:06.or Jaz Carlin for the bronze. Jaz Carlin, 250 metres to go, in the
:10:06. > :10:14.bronze medal position. She can do it, she's going to do it, I'm so
:10:14. > :10:20.excited! The world-record is on. It is held by Federica Pellegrini of
:10:20. > :10:26.Italy. She is fit now. Can she get it? She's just outside. The
:10:26. > :10:31.silver... The bronze? Oh, it has just gone to boil of New Zealand.
:10:31. > :10:41.Oh, my goodness me. Jaz Carlin has been touched out by 14 one
:10:41. > :10:42.
:10:42. > :10:46.hundredths of a second, so close! close! Tough kick. Tough one.She's
:10:46. > :10:49.the first girl in a textile suit, even though she didn't get the
:10:49. > :10:56.world-record, she's the first one to it. World champion Katie Ledecky
:10:56. > :11:00.wins. Extraordinary. Melanie Costa-Schmid was second, Lauren
:11:00. > :11:06.Boyle third, and Jaz Carlin, it has set up for the 1500 metres
:11:06. > :11:09.set up for the 1500 metres freestyle, still
:11:09. > :11:17.First Lady to go under four minutes without wearing one of those super
:11:17. > :11:23.suits. It's crazy. My coach has joked around when we are doing
:11:23. > :11:28.pace, if I'm going 29, he says, under four minutes! I always thought
:11:28. > :11:30.it was a joke, but he must have known that I could do it. I didn't.
:11:30. > :11:35.Well done, we will see you later in the week.
:11:35. > :11:39.We know from London what she is capable of over the long distances,
:11:40. > :11:44.but to see her in 400 metres, how impressed were you? It was an
:11:44. > :11:48.unbelievable race. She is the fastest woman in a textile suit, so
:11:48. > :11:53.even though she didn't get the world-record, she is the fastest
:11:53. > :11:58.woman who has done that without the new suit. I like that she has come
:11:58. > :12:03.down to the forum. She's got a big programme with the 1500 and 800
:12:03. > :12:08.metres. But I think she will try to do the shorter distances. She could
:12:08. > :12:12.be one of the great swimmers of all time. Without a doubt! Definitely.
:12:12. > :12:16.I've had the privilege of racing her, and she is an unbelievable
:12:16. > :12:20.athlete and she's so lovely as well which is so endearing. She's
:12:20. > :12:22.obviously on form, so it is going to be a very good week for her. Let's
:12:22. > :12:22.be a very good week for her. Let's move on. It's the men's 100 meter
:12:22. > :12:32.be a very good week for her. Let's move on. It's the men's 100 final
:12:32. > :12:34.
:12:34. > :12:34.next. The
:12:34. > :12:34.The yellow
:12:34. > :12:34.The yellow hat
:12:34. > :12:39.The yellow hat of
:12:39. > :12:46.The yellow hat of Australia and Kitajima of Japan, those are the
:12:46. > :12:52.ones to watch. Anderberg going out very strongly. It's whether he has
:12:53. > :12:58.got the energy and training behind him to hold onto the pace. Kitajima
:12:58. > :13:02.down the bottom going well. Under world-record, quarter of a second.
:13:02. > :13:07.He had to do this, but it is a question of whether he can do it.
:13:07. > :13:14.The rest of the pool, apart from lanes one and two and three and
:13:14. > :13:22.four... This is fascinating. Surely he can't come back! He is holding
:13:22. > :13:29.well in that green cap of South Africa. It looks like it is -- it is
:13:29. > :13:33.going to be sprang. Is it? It is! Right on the touch. The gold goes to
:13:33. > :13:43.Springer, the Silver ghost of Vandenberg and the bronze goes to
:13:43. > :13:45.
:13:45. > :13:50.Lima. World champion. He deserves that one. All year, he'd been half a
:13:50. > :13:57.second faster than the rest of the field. The limbic champion had
:13:57. > :14:01.patchy year. Sprenger were saying it is Van De Burgh was Mac to lose. He
:14:01. > :14:09.was trying to take the pressure off him but he knew that Van De Burgh
:14:09. > :14:14.was going to go out quickly. Sprenger, , Lima third. Kitajima was
:14:14. > :14:19.six! Now, the women's 100 metres by,
:14:19. > :14:27.followed by the hundred metre sprint of the men's.
:14:27. > :14:36.What a field. Alysia Coutts in three, Sarah Sjostrom in fourth.
:14:36. > :14:46.Dana Vollmer in sixth. The final of the women's butterfly. Heavens
:14:46. > :14:48.
:14:48. > :14:54.above, that was close. The tactic we know so well and just run is staying
:14:54. > :15:04.with her. That red line is the world-record pace. Bianchi is going
:15:04. > :15:05.
:15:05. > :15:09.well. Not sure she can hold that race. Still run comes back well.
:15:09. > :15:14.thought it's your strong was within four tenths of a second at the
:15:14. > :15:23.turn, I thought she would win this. She is not coming back as quick as I
:15:23. > :15:28.thought she would be. This is very, very tired indeed. Just run of
:15:28. > :15:35.Sweden right in the centre with the yellow hat. It is gold medal, four
:15:35. > :15:41.years after Rome, it ghost is your strong. Diana Vollmer, she has been
:15:41. > :15:50.ill, and she has to take bronze, the Olympic champion. That was a
:15:50. > :15:54.textbook swim from Sjostrom. Those tactics have worked for her. She has
:15:54. > :15:57.talked about being more relaxed in the competition, had a few changes
:15:57. > :16:05.in her life since the Olympic Games, going from a fourth in the
:16:05. > :16:15.Olympics to a first in the World Championships. You can see she is
:16:15. > :16:22.
:16:22. > :16:26.excited! That was a very well paced race from her.
:16:26. > :16:36.This is the men's 50m butterfly final. This is going to be a
:16:36. > :16:59.
:16:59. > :17:06.cracker. Very big men and a Cesar Cielo Fiho from Brazil, my
:17:06. > :17:16.goodness! Defending his champion. Nowhere near as quick as I thought
:17:16. > :17:18.
:17:18. > :17:28.it was going to be. He wins it. Silver for the USA. A very exciting
:17:28. > :17:54.
:17:54. > :18:02.Cesar Cielo Fiho not perhaps the most popular winner there are.
:18:02. > :18:06.Explain why? A grey cloud over his head. A few years ago, he tested
:18:06. > :18:11.positive for an masking agent. Nobody in sport bikes cheat and
:18:11. > :18:17.because there is a grey area over his head, people are still not happy
:18:17. > :18:20.about it. For me, I am used to a tight finish. Taking nothing away
:18:20. > :18:28.from his performance because I truly believe you are innocent until
:18:28. > :18:36.proven guilty. Heading towards real, here's looking to be a star in his
:18:36. > :18:43.own home game. He has a PR exercise to do. Yes, he is a huge name. He
:18:43. > :18:51.will be the big name leading into real itself. That was a good race
:18:51. > :18:55.there, but swimmers do not like seeing other cheats. We have two
:18:55. > :18:58.British women at the beginnings of their careers will stop this is the
:18:58. > :19:06.200 metres medley, we have Sophie 200 metres medley, we have Sophie
:19:06. > :19:16.Allen and Siobhan-Marie O'Connor. have two Brits in this race. What a
:19:16. > :19:17.
:19:17. > :19:23.great opportunity for both of them. Really interesting. Great Britain in
:19:23. > :19:33.lanes six and eight. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor normally goes out very
:19:33. > :19:43.quickly. They really have to try and work hard. Out of the blocks, they
:19:43. > :19:56.
:19:56. > :19:59.are going very well. Under the world record at the moment. She is really
:19:59. > :20:09.trying to put some distance between her and the lady closest to the
:20:09. > :20:11.
:20:11. > :20:21.camera. She is really going to have to drive it home. Look at the
:20:21. > :20:23.
:20:23. > :20:29.bottom, Siobhan-Marie O'Connor is doing very well. She has got a good
:20:29. > :20:39.breaststroke as well, so now the race is on. They will now try to
:20:39. > :20:44.
:20:44. > :20:54.catch the Hungary. -- the Hungary. The yellow card of the Australian
:20:54. > :20:59.
:20:59. > :21:09.summer coming back now. What a great race! I cannot see her losing this
:21:09. > :21:13.
:21:13. > :21:22.one now. I cannot believe she will give it up now. I don't think they
:21:22. > :21:32.have enough. Finally, she is going to win the big one. She has become
:21:32. > :21:36.
:21:36. > :21:46.world champion! Goodness me, that is her third silver medal of these
:21:46. > :21:50.
:21:50. > :22:00.championships. What a fantastic swim. You can hear the crowd. You
:22:00. > :22:01.
:22:01. > :22:06.can see that the Spanish girl got a medal by the reaction of this crowd.
:22:06. > :22:16.She has had a huge schedule. She has prepared herself for raising tough
:22:16. > :22:27.
:22:27. > :22:32.all the way through this wants to improve after the
:22:32. > :22:37.semifinal, you always want to get faster but it was amazing race.
:22:37. > :22:43.Everyone was so close, there was still little between second and
:22:43. > :22:51.third place. It just wasn't in me tonight. A lovely surprise for you
:22:51. > :22:57.to be in there? Definitely, it was a crazy ten minutes. I was absolutely
:22:57. > :23:02.gutted not to have made the final. When I got told that someone had
:23:02. > :23:08.pulled out, it was unbelievable. is the men's 200 metres free now,
:23:08. > :23:14.one of the most eagerly anticipated races of the event. Olympic
:23:14. > :23:18.champion, Yannick Agnel, has had a mixed year. He was not even going to
:23:18. > :23:28.swim before it all started. Ryan locked swimming in this as well and
:23:28. > :23:32.
:23:32. > :23:42.locked swimming in this as well and our very own Robbie Renwick.
:23:42. > :23:43.
:23:43. > :23:48.A good, clean start. Robbie Renwick in lanes six has not bad start. As
:23:48. > :23:54.expected, right at the top, the Olympic champion, Yannick Agnel. He
:23:54. > :24:01.is really going for it. Interesting tactics to go for it from the gun.
:24:01. > :24:07.Trying to assert himself from the beginning of the race. He knows that
:24:07. > :24:17.Ryan locked likes to use the turn. Still in a dominating position,
:24:17. > :24:18.
:24:18. > :24:28.though. This is fascinating and poor old Robbie Renwick, he was on Ryan
:24:28. > :24:29.
:24:29. > :24:38.locked 's feet. Robbie Renwick has to move if he wants a chance of a
:24:38. > :24:45.medal. Australia is going well, they are all over the place on this one.
:24:45. > :24:55.The question now is whether Yannick Agnel can hold its lead? We know
:24:55. > :24:59.
:24:59. > :25:03.Robbie Renwick can come back in the last 50m. Coming back in the centre
:25:03. > :25:13.in the blackout of America, it is Ryan locked. He looks very good
:25:13. > :25:14.
:25:14. > :25:23.indeed. Can they catch you next in Jill. I don't think they can.
:25:23. > :25:28.Yannick Agnel gets the gold medal. That is a massive surprise! What a
:25:28. > :25:33.huge surprise. He went from the gun and that is how to win a world
:25:33. > :25:36.championship title! That was a phenomenal swimmer. He did it in the
:25:36. > :25:46.in big games, he shocked everybody from the start and never let the
:25:46. > :25:48.
:25:48. > :25:54.race go. Ryan locked coming in fourth in the end. What a wonderful
:25:54. > :26:04.performance. Huge French support here. The Olympic champion becomes
:26:04. > :26:08.here. The Olympic champion becomes the world champion. That race was
:26:08. > :26:15.all over the place, it didn't take its normal pattern, was it hard to
:26:15. > :26:20.understand what was going on? guess. I always stick to my own race
:26:20. > :26:24.plan, it doesn't really matter what the other people do. Unfortunately,
:26:24. > :26:29.I just came up a bit short tonight. It is certainly something I can look
:26:29. > :26:33.into for next season. I will now work on that and come the
:26:33. > :26:37.Commonwealth games next year. I have got to be excited about that.
:26:37. > :26:42.he be disappointed with his performance this year? Definitely
:26:42. > :26:48.not, the timing is good for him. He did well to make the final and he
:26:48. > :26:53.has a home Commonwealth Games next year. I love about him is that he
:26:53. > :26:56.sticks to his own race plan, he does not get intimidated by being next to
:26:56. > :27:01.Yannick Agnel, he sticks to his own plan and that is what you have to do
:27:01. > :27:05.in that situation. Yannick Agnel release a prized us, not looking
:27:05. > :27:13.over Lee impressed in the semifinals and the heats and then he pulled it
:27:13. > :27:21.out of the bag. Did he time it to perfection? In the heats and
:27:21. > :27:29.semifinals, the bigger swims like to leave something for the finals. He
:27:29. > :27:32.still had to deliver. He has changed swimming groups this year and it

:27:35. > :27:41.worry that you come into major championship with another coach and
:27:41. > :27:46.different training and it doesn't happen so hats off to him. He was
:27:46. > :27:51.not even thinking of swimming this but the French seemed to have
:27:51. > :27:56.forgiven him because there were plenty of French support here. Next
:27:56. > :28:01.up we have the women's 100m backstroke. Britain 's Gemma
:28:01. > :28:09.Spofforth holds the world record but it is fair to say America 's
:28:09. > :28:15.received the missile Franklin as it firmly in her sights. -- Missy the
:28:15. > :28:25.firmly in her sights. -- Missy the Missile Franklin. Goodness, she has
:28:25. > :28:27.
:28:27. > :28:37.worked hard. The gold medal goes to the USA! Missy Franklin, will she
:28:37. > :28:47.break the world record? She goes in lane number four. A much better
:28:47. > :28:50.
:28:50. > :28:55.start from Missy Franklin. This fresh 25, she is working hard. Her
:28:55. > :29:00.second 50m is very strong indeed. The strata must have been playing on
:29:00. > :29:10.her mind quite a lot. We have China in Lane to really leading the pace.
:29:10. > :29:12.
:29:12. > :29:18.The world-record line is there and they are right on it. This is
:29:18. > :29:28.definitely on. Gemma Spofforth came back very fast but this is Missy
:29:28. > :29:35.
:29:35. > :29:40.Franklin 's watcher. Missy Franklin looks very, very good. She has just
:29:40. > :29:46.missed the world-record. But it is gold to Missy Franklin. The silver
:29:46. > :29:53.has gone to Emily Seebohm from Australia. That was pretty much the
:29:53. > :29:59.order we expected. The disappointing thing was the way she swam that, I
:29:59. > :30:04.was surprised she didn't go out any harder. Missy Franklin adds the
:30:04. > :30:09.harder. Missy Franklin adds the world championship title to what she
:30:09. > :30:12.world championship title to what That was her second gold of the
:30:12. > :30:17.championships, we will see later of -- more of her later in the
:30:17. > :30:27.programme. If there is one woman who can steal her thunder, it is Katie
:30:27. > :30:28.
:30:28. > :30:38.Ledecky. Next up, the 1500m. What a fool this will be. --
:30:38. > :30:44.
:30:44. > :30:50.quarterback told this will be. This Ledecky, absolutely neck and neck. I
:30:50. > :30:56.think the gap between the gold and silver is starting to get slightly
:30:56. > :31:06.smaller. I don't think they're going to catch the two leaders, but it is
:31:06. > :31:07.
:31:07. > :31:13.getting shorter. Lauren Boyle is closing the gap every single stroke.
:31:13. > :31:22.I think she has got a bit too far to catch up. It has been a fantastic
:31:22. > :31:30.sprint. It is going to come down to the last 50. How excited are you?
:31:30. > :31:37.Just a little! 300 metres to go in this final of the women's 1500
:31:37. > :31:47.metres freestyle. Hardly 100th of a second has changed between these two
:31:47. > :31:59.
:31:59. > :32:03.women all the way through this race. worry for Lotte Friis, I worry for
:32:03. > :32:13.her because I do think the sprint of Katie Ledecky is probably looking
:32:13. > :32:19.
:32:19. > :32:22.good. Still five seconds ahead of world-record pace. I think she is
:32:22. > :32:32.trying to breathe the opposite way to Lotte Friis. Lotte Friis is going
:32:32. > :32:34.
:32:34. > :32:38.for it more. It's interesting, they are breathing away from each other.
:32:38. > :32:48.Ledecky has finally taken over, it has taken her 1300 metres to do so.
:32:48. > :32:53.I wonder if this is where lead to key makes a move? She has let Lotte
:32:53. > :32:59.Friis lead for the last 200 metres or so. But she is making her move
:32:59. > :33:08.now. To be honest, it is the right time for her to move, the right
:33:08. > :33:18.opportunity, she's got enough left. How hard are the terms now? Maybe
:33:18. > :33:20.
:33:21. > :33:30.you want to save something for the end? They've both got quite equal
:33:31. > :33:32.
:33:32. > :33:39.terms. They've both got very strong terms. -- turns. With 100 metres to
:33:39. > :33:45.go, the final turn. It looks like Katie Ledecky has made her big
:33:45. > :33:49.move. Can she hold on? They are under the world-record pace. It is
:33:49. > :33:54.going to be shattered. It looks like Katie Ledecky is starting to swim
:33:54. > :34:00.away from Lotte Friis. What an amazing swim this has been. She took
:34:00. > :34:09.half a second off Lotte Friis. I don't know that she can respond. I
:34:09. > :34:19.think the race is over. Katie is the clear winner. She is more focused on
:34:19. > :34:23.the distance. At Friis has been able to kick it up. This has been
:34:23. > :34:27.unbelievable. This is very impressive stuff. The Olympic
:34:27. > :34:33.champion on the 800 metres freestyle, she is going to destroy
:34:33. > :34:39.the world record on this 1500 metres. The world-record stand at
:34:39. > :34:44.15.42.54. The world champion, the new world-record holder is Katie
:34:44. > :34:50.Ledecky of the USA. The Silver ghost to Lotte Friis of Denmark, also well
:34:50. > :34:54.under the world-record pace. The bronze goes to the Australian. What
:34:54. > :35:04.a superb race it was. She left 200 metres to go and then made her move
:35:04. > :35:07.
:35:07. > :35:17.and it was decisive. She took to Mexicans out of Lotte Friis. -- she
:35:17. > :35:24.
:35:24. > :35:29.Ledecky, destroyed the old world record. The Silver ghost to Lotte
:35:29. > :35:33.Friis, a good bronze the Lauren Friis, a good bronze the Lauren
:35:33. > :35:37.Boyle. Very impressive stuff. What an impressive swim. Six seconds
:35:37. > :35:42.off the world-record! It is not swum at the Olympics, so we shouldn't be
:35:42. > :35:47.too surprised she broke it, but she did it in some style. It was such a
:35:47. > :35:54.brilliant race! It was head-to-head between her and Lotte Friis. Yes, we
:35:54. > :35:59.want to see the whole field up with them, but it was nice to see them
:35:59. > :36:05.fighting it out. She paced it out, she took off at the right time. The
:36:05. > :36:09.last 200 metres, she didn't leave it to the last 50. That is why it was
:36:09. > :36:16.six seconds under. Unbelievable. 16, she cannot be at the peak of her
:36:16. > :36:22.powers. Funny, it was a huge surprise seeing have beat Becky last
:36:22. > :36:27.year and to get to Becky's record. I didn't suddenly expect to see that
:36:27. > :36:34.much of an improvement. Improve so much one yet and improve coming to
:36:34. > :36:38.these championships, she has got a bright future. She looks very
:36:38. > :36:43.strong, she's got a lot of speed at the same time. She has got a lot
:36:43. > :36:48.bigger as well, compared to last year. She has balked up, even in the
:36:48. > :36:56.gym, got stronger. It will be good to see how she progresses that.
:36:56. > :36:58.golds for the US star. She put -- she took time out to meet up with
:36:58. > :37:06.Sharron. Katie Ledecky of the USA,
:37:06. > :37:11.international debut. Katie Ledecky, a big shock, she's going to win the
:37:11. > :37:17.gold in 800 freestyle! I bet your life has changed
:37:17. > :37:24.massively, what is different than 18 months ago? Not much. I got back
:37:24. > :37:29.into school after last summer, and back to normal. So, all your mates
:37:29. > :37:33.have treated you exactly the same? Oh, yes. They were welcoming and
:37:33. > :37:38.excited for me to come back. I shared my experience with them as
:37:38. > :37:47.much as I could the first week, and then after that it was back to
:37:47. > :37:55.normal. Hugely busy trials. 200, 400, 800, 1500. You dropped 200.
:37:55. > :37:59.Taking it in your stride? Definitely more than I have done. I've prepared
:37:59. > :38:04.for it this year. I know I have the opportunity to swim all those
:38:04. > :38:09.events. I am so honoured to have the opportunity to swim all these events
:38:09. > :38:16.on the international stage. Does it faze you? That 1500 metres was such
:38:16. > :38:21.a tough race. I do better as the week goes along. So getting some
:38:21. > :38:26.races out of the way, that is helping me. The 800 metres, the
:38:26. > :38:30.world record is held by Becky Adlington. You wrote a letter to
:38:30. > :38:35.her, why did you do that? I wanted to tell her how can she was after
:38:35. > :38:41.the race. After she announced her retirement, I thought that was a
:38:41. > :38:46.good opportunity to thank her. I didn't get that much time to talk to
:38:46. > :38:50.her after the race, so I wanted to thank her for being so kind and just
:38:50. > :38:55.for a great race. Having smashed the world-record 1500 metres, have you
:38:55. > :39:00.got a target for this one? necessarily. I want to do all my
:39:00. > :39:03.best, like all the other races. If it brings the Bates -- brings the
:39:03. > :39:08.best time, then it is great. Thank you very much.
:39:08. > :39:15.On Monday, we were treated to something very special in the
:39:15. > :39:25.women's semifinal of the 100 metres.
:39:25. > :39:31.
:39:31. > :39:36.But an 80 day of Plymouth and fascinating! She can go even faster.
:39:36. > :39:46.What a great swing that was. The Olympic champion is now the
:39:46. > :39:56.
:39:56. > :40:06.world-record holder on the 100 breast wrote. The green hat of the
:40:06. > :40:20.
:40:20. > :40:26.Mytilene and -- the green hat of the to the gun. She's going to have to
:40:26. > :40:31.come back quite strongly. I don't think the field can challenge her.
:40:31. > :40:38.Efimova and Hardy to the right of her. They are certainly trying.
:40:38. > :40:41.Efimova in that hat is not letting it go. It looks like it is going to
:40:41. > :40:49.be Meilutyte, she is right on world-record pace. We'll should
:40:49. > :40:56.become world champion as well? -- will she become? She is just
:40:56. > :41:01.outside! Seven tenths of a second outside the world-record. But she is
:41:01. > :41:06.the world champion and I think she is delighted. Absolutely brilliant
:41:06. > :41:16.swimming. Good heavens. She went out much more measured than her first
:41:16. > :41:20.50, but, goodness me, can she bring it back. Meilutyte of Lithuania wins
:41:20. > :41:25.the breaststroke. Efimova come second.
:41:25. > :41:31.Olympic champion, Bob Champion, world-record holder, put it into
:41:31. > :41:34.some perspective. It is quite something. She's only 16 years of
:41:34. > :41:39.age. There is an awful lot more to come. We've got the 50 breast
:41:39. > :41:45.wrote, it wouldn't surprise me if she dominated that as well. -- we've
:41:45. > :41:49.got the 50 breaststroke. She was 12 years old when she came to Britain
:41:49. > :41:52.from Lithuania. Her mum passed away when she was only four years old.
:41:52. > :41:56.She was knocked over in a traffic accident. She was brought up I had
:41:57. > :42:02.grandmother. She sends most of her winnings back to Lithuania to look
:42:02. > :42:06.after the family. The question that a lot of people are asking, she is
:42:06. > :42:09.based in Britain, she trains with a British coach, so why are we not
:42:09. > :42:15.seen more British youngsters coming through? Well, that is very
:42:15. > :42:20.frustrating. There have been good results at Olympic youth
:42:20. > :42:25.Championships, but we don't seem to be able to change those into senior
:42:25. > :42:29.successes. That is the big question, rather than why are we not
:42:29. > :42:31.producing the youngsters, because we are producing youngsters. More to
:42:31. > :42:36.come from Meilutyte and from the British youngsters who are coming
:42:36. > :42:40.through, hopefully. Let's move on to a man who has
:42:40. > :42:45.achieved it already on the world stage. It is the 200 meter fly. Of
:42:45. > :42:53.course, the outstanding favourite took gold in London, but he is more
:42:53. > :43:00.famous for the person he beat last year, or his larger-than-life dad.
:43:00. > :43:08.Chad Le Clos, so famously beating Michael Phelps in London in 2012.
:43:08. > :43:14.is not trying very hard on this one. Very easy. He's looking around.
:43:14. > :43:17.Heavens above. He put his head down for three strokes and won it.
:43:17. > :43:26.very happy with the time. I am number one qualifier, that's good
:43:26. > :43:36.for me. The finalist of the 200 metres butterfly, Chad Le Clos,
:43:36. > :43:53.
:43:53. > :44:03.looking around a lot. I think we will see him concentrate far more on
:44:03. > :44:04.
:44:04. > :44:09.his own race. Very, very relaxed. is good to be relaxed. Underneath, I
:44:09. > :44:16.bet he is working hard. Korzeniowski is in good shape. He won the world
:44:16. > :44:21.University games. It's not the guest of competitions, but he did a great
:44:21. > :44:31.job. I am surprised paying is not here with them. He did struggle in
:44:31. > :44:34.
:44:34. > :44:39.the semis. Le Clos is more determined than he was. At six
:44:39. > :44:42.tenths of a second outside the time that he won in the Olympic Games. He
:44:42. > :44:49.does look reasonably strong but the field has not disappeared yet,
:44:49. > :44:55.that's for certain. He looked left and right again! He is looking
:44:55. > :45:01.right, he's seeing where they are, if he is not careful, Korzeniowski,
:45:01. > :45:06.the world champion from 2005, he's going to take this race to him.
:45:06. > :45:12.Well, Korzeniowski is turning first. Chad Le Clos, stop looking around,
:45:12. > :45:16.just do the job! Stop looking again! Nothing you can do. Concentrate on
:45:16. > :45:24.your own race. This is amazing. I've never seen anyone look around so
:45:24. > :45:28.hard. Look at him looking around. This is ridiculous. Go forward! Go
:45:28. > :45:38.forward! It looks like he's going to win but only just. Goodness me. He
:45:38. > :45:50.
:45:50. > :45:53.does win. Oh my goodness, do not swim like that! Chad Le Clos, world
:45:53. > :46:02.champion. A different way of doing champion. A different way of doing
:46:02. > :46:08.it. Congratulations! Tell us about the looking will stop people are
:46:08. > :46:12.going crazy watching you are going across the pill. I just get very
:46:12. > :46:17.nervous and I look around and make sure I am in the right position. I
:46:17. > :46:25.have done it from a right -- a young age but it fuelled my motivation to
:46:25. > :46:33.get better. You're not going to change it? Like to know where I am
:46:33. > :46:39.in the field and make sure I am ahead. That was my game plan
:46:39. > :46:46.tonight, to make sure I was there. guess your dad is here? Yes he is
:46:46. > :46:51.here. Andy in particular, you are really frustrated by the way that
:46:51. > :46:57.Chad Le Clos seems to lift his head and look around at his opposition
:46:57. > :47:02.until the very end? I think it is utterly ridiculous, to be honest. If
:47:02. > :47:10.you do look sideways like that, you get unbalanced and you have to try
:47:10. > :47:16.and stay as flat as possible. It is not an efficient stroke at all. If I
:47:16. > :47:23.am going like this and then I look at that, if he is ahead of me, what
:47:23. > :47:31.am I going to do? Faster or slower? Concentrate on what you are doing,
:47:31. > :47:35.going straight forward. Can you tell he is irritated? Me to. As
:47:35. > :47:41.ex-swimmers, we get irritated by it. I was hoping he would lose one of
:47:41. > :47:45.these races. How much quicker could he go because this was much slower
:47:45. > :47:52.than last year. He did not have Michael Phelps pushing him, that
:47:52. > :47:56.motivation, but if he is doing that, how much quicker can he go? He needs
:47:56. > :48:00.to go another second to break the world-record he oozes talent, but I
:48:00. > :48:05.think he could break it if he concentrated properly. In the
:48:05. > :48:12.Olympics last year, he was a second of Michael Phelps -- Michael Phelps
:48:12. > :48:17.'s record. If you want to be one of the best in the world, to get in
:48:17. > :48:22.that pantheon of great, he has to mature a bit. Hopefully, he will
:48:22. > :48:27.take heed that advice! Let's move on to the women's 200 metres free
:48:27. > :48:31.final. We have the American sweetheart, Missy Franklin, and the
:48:31. > :48:32.world record holder from Italy, Francesca Pellegrini, the only
:48:33. > :48:42.Francesca Pellegrini, the only decided to swim this event a few
:48:43. > :48:54.
:48:54. > :49:04.Well, Missy Franklin had a fairly slow start. She has come up in the
:49:04. > :49:07.
:49:07. > :49:10.lead but her reaction to the gun is relatively slow. This is the one
:49:11. > :49:18.final I have been really looking forward to tonight, when I saw the
:49:18. > :49:28.list and saw who was in it. Francesca Pellegrini always comes
:49:28. > :49:36.
:49:36. > :49:46.back strongly. She is off the pace at the moment. She will not be able
:49:46. > :49:47.
:49:47. > :49:51.to catch them on this distance. Very interesting tactics. At 75 metres,
:49:51. > :49:55.Missy Franklin has started going. She really put on a huge sprint and
:49:55. > :49:58.it looks like the Olympic champion is trying to go with her in that
:49:58. > :50:04.white hat. It is Missy Franklin leading just behind the
:50:04. > :50:09.world-record. Francesca Pellegrini is about three metres behind but she
:50:10. > :50:18.will come back very fast. Francesca Pellegrini is currently in fifth but
:50:18. > :50:28.I would expect her to get a medal. Missy Franklin is having a great
:50:28. > :50:28.
:50:28. > :50:32.swimmer. Francesca Pellegrini is coming back like a rocket. The
:50:32. > :50:35.18-year-old from Colorado, Missy Franklin, is currently leading but
:50:35. > :50:42.look how fast Francesca Pellegrini is coming back. She is coming back
:50:42. > :50:49.superfast, it will be mighty tide. Missy Franklin is the world
:50:49. > :50:55.champion. The world-record holder gets the silver medal. What an
:50:55. > :51:05.amazing race! Perfect tactics from this young lady, Missy Franklin,
:51:05. > :51:08.
:51:08. > :51:13.this young lady, Missy Franklin, from the USA. It is 35 years since
:51:13. > :51:22.an American lady one that medal? did not know that actually! Well
:51:22. > :51:29.done! Did you plan those tactics? knew I was going to have two B eyed
:51:29. > :51:36.fast because Federica Pellegrini is very fast. In the last 25 metres, I
:51:36. > :51:42.could see her creeping up. Missy Franklin, still on track. She is
:51:42. > :51:45.only 18, where can she go from here? Who knows? Freestyler has deftly
:51:45. > :51:55.come on this year. The good thing about her is that she does so many
:51:55. > :52:00.events. She can do anything she puts her mind to. She has got a big
:52:00. > :52:07.programme so as she gets older, she may cut it down. She is on form and
:52:07. > :52:11.I am glad to see her freestyle has come on so much. This intrigues me
:52:11. > :52:18.about swimming from the outside, but as you get older, you would cut your
:52:18. > :52:22.programme down and for example with Katie Ledecky, the younger swimmer
:52:22. > :52:28.seems to do better at distance and it seems at first to athletics?
:52:28. > :52:31.they all start swimming, the younger you are, the more distance you do.
:52:31. > :52:38.Then you choose your events. At a younger age, because you do not have
:52:38. > :52:42.as much muscle mass, you can do more races. That is why people start to
:52:42. > :52:51.come down the distances when they get bigger and stronger. Strength
:52:51. > :53:01.means speed rather than in Germans. If Rebecca had carried on, she would
:53:01. > :53:03.
:53:03. > :53:09.have been a 15 metre swimmer eventually! China 's Sun Yang is up
:53:09. > :53:13.eventually! China 's Sun Yang is up next with the 800m. I am really,
:53:13. > :53:20.really looking forward to this one. Sun Yang of China is only the second
:53:20. > :53:25.fastest qualifier. Goodness me, this is going to be a cracker. Six
:53:25. > :53:29.lengths to go and Sun Yang of China looks comfortable. He is starting to
:53:29. > :53:39.pick up the pace a little bit. Michael Brown of the USA is behind
:53:39. > :53:52.
:53:52. > :53:58.him. Conor Yeager in the black cat. Sun Yang is doing really well. I
:53:58. > :54:07.think he is in great shape. Great technique. He is starting to kick
:54:07. > :54:17.the legs are little bit more. I hate to say it but I think he wants -- I
:54:17. > :54:18.
:54:18. > :54:26.think he has got them where he wants them, I hope. 200 metres left in
:54:26. > :54:32.this race. Sun Yang, I think, playing with them. Look at his
:54:32. > :54:42.fingers, slightly open. Such a long stroke. Goodness, he builds the
:54:42. > :54:45.
:54:45. > :54:55.water all the way through to his feet. The two Americans are swimming
:54:55. > :54:58.
:54:58. > :55:03.very well. Cochran has a decent sprint. It would be a phenomenal
:55:03. > :55:09.thing to get on the podium here. Sun Yang now starting to put a kick on
:55:09. > :55:18.and are starting to go. I don't think the rest are going to go with
:55:18. > :55:28.him. 100m to go, two lengths left. Soon a gang of China leading and he
:55:28. > :55:28.
:55:28. > :55:34.has taken two metres out of the field. That is Sun Yang and he looks
:55:34. > :55:37.really good. Look at that, he was only about four tenths of a second
:55:38. > :55:47.two lengths go and look at that! The silver and bronze is really, great
:55:48. > :55:55.
:55:55. > :56:01.tit. -- really tight. Here he goes again, America and Canada where are
:56:01. > :56:11.the next two medals going to go? looks like the gold medal and
:56:11. > :56:12.
:56:13. > :56:18.championship title will go to Sun Yang of China. He is the world
:56:18. > :56:28.champion. An amazing swim, he just played with them for 600 metres and
:56:28. > :56:42.
:56:42. > :56:50.blew them away in the end. He is so, blew them away in the end. He is so,
:56:50. > :56:55.so impressive. The emotion from sin Yang, that was his second gold, and
:56:55. > :56:59.it all came out. He had been building up all week? We do not know
:56:59. > :57:07.what goes on behind-the-scenes. We heard he changed his coach and his
:57:07. > :57:11.training tactics. Maybe he came in for a lot of criticism, I don't
:57:11. > :57:21.know. Those emotions or it may be meant just that much to him. He
:57:21. > :57:28.absolutely dominates the race. It is a beautiful thing to watch. Only the
:57:28. > :57:35.great Grant Hackett has achieved this in the past. Rightly so, I love
:57:35. > :57:41.that his emotion comes out after the race. It is nice to see that. We
:57:41. > :57:44.dedicate 50 weeks a year to this and we put our bodies to the limit every
:57:44. > :57:49.day so you cannot help but get emotional and it is nice because it
:57:49. > :57:54.means so much to him. He does the work and that is why it means so
:57:54. > :57:59.much to him. The final leg of this trilogy is the 1500m and you can see
:57:59. > :58:06.how he gets on in our coverage tomorrow. Next, the men's 200 metres
:58:06. > :58:16.tomorrow. Next, the men's 200 metres individual medley. Ryan looked he
:58:16. > :58:25.
:58:25. > :58:35.starts as a favourite. -- Ryan locked. If the start is anything to
:58:35. > :59:14.
:59:14. > :59:20.great world-record split. I'm surprised that he is so far behind.
:59:20. > :59:30.Could this be the time when he finally wins and medal? Fourth in
:59:30. > :59:31.
:59:31. > :59:41.three consecutive world Championships. Ryan 's rest/is
:59:41. > :59:50.
:59:50. > :59:54.superb. He made such an impact in the semifinals last night. Ryan is
:59:54. > :59:59.the first to turn. The charge is now going to come from the whole field
:59:59. > :00:03.from these guys but surely they will not catch this guy, Ryan? He has
:00:03. > :00:08.worked hard so far. Look at the rest of the field coming back. The gold
:00:08. > :00:13.is definitely going to go to Ryan. He won two years ago and he looks
:00:13. > :00:23.very tired indeed that it is going to be a world title number two for
:00:23. > :00:24.
:00:24. > :00:32.him. The silver has gone to Hagino. him. The silver has gone to Hagino.
:00:32. > :00:37.What a last 50 that was. Finally Pereira has got a bronze. Hagino
:00:37. > :00:46.finished so strongly. But Ryan Lochte, world champion, repeating
:00:46. > :00:54.what Michael Phelps dead from 2003, 2005 and 2007. Three world titles in
:00:54. > :01:01.a row in this men's 200 medley. Three consecutive titles, pretty
:01:01. > :01:06.impressive. Makes you an old man, really! And say that, I'm still
:01:06. > :01:11.young! I wasn't really knowing what to expect out of these World
:01:11. > :01:15.Championships. My trainer hasn't really been there this year. But I
:01:15. > :01:23.do know how to race. It was a tough do know how to race. It was a tough
:01:23. > :01:27.race and I am You won it very convincingly. Tough year. You are a
:01:27. > :01:36.reality TV star! Taking girls to dinners, I've heard. Same
:01:36. > :01:42.restaurant, I've heard. No good! know, I had the honour of doing a
:01:42. > :01:50.lot of unique and different things. But, you know, when it comes down to
:01:50. > :01:56.it, I am an Olympic athlete, and I am going to 2016 or longer. Right
:01:56. > :02:01.now my focus is 2016. Well, he did it, in spite of his new life as a
:02:01. > :02:07.reality star. And very little training. How difficult is it to not
:02:07. > :02:14.have the kind of intensity that he would normally have? Massive. He
:02:14. > :02:19.would have done a lead-in to the Olympic Games. The training in one
:02:19. > :02:23.year, it doesn't go overnight, but he hasn't focused that much as he
:02:23. > :02:29.has done. But he can have an easy year, a part-time year, and dominate
:02:29. > :02:35.this race. He can't afford to keep his foot off the gas for the next
:02:35. > :02:38.three years. He wants to be the Phelps dominating figure, but to be
:02:39. > :02:45.that in Rio, year is going to have to knuckle down. He must do that but
:02:45. > :02:50.I think he did the right time. Swimmers do run on a four year
:02:50. > :02:55.cycle, so he chose the right time to do the same, to do something
:02:55. > :03:00.different. But he knows he is famous because of what he does in the pool.
:03:00. > :03:05.And he still managed to win. So he will build it up over the next three
:03:05. > :03:11.years and he will cut down on the reality TV. We can't blame him for
:03:11. > :03:15.enjoying the fine! It is good for the sport. We need characters in the
:03:15. > :03:19.sport. It is one of those great events now, the men's 100 metres
:03:19. > :03:25.free. This was the closest race in London, one of the closest head to
:03:25. > :03:28.heads ever. Nathan Adrian beat Australia's James Magnusson by one
:03:28. > :03:37.100th of a second. Could the Australian get revenge on
:03:37. > :03:47.Australian get revenge on Watch lane six, James Magnusson.
:03:47. > :03:47.
:03:47. > :03:57.This is going to be tight. They are away very cleanly. The final of the
:03:57. > :03:58.
:03:58. > :04:08.100 metres freestyle. Good start by Nathan Adrian. Also going very well
:04:08. > :04:18.is Morozov. Morozov is a champion. He did this before. Great 50
:04:18. > :04:20.
:04:20. > :04:27.freestyle. Zero point 23 -- 0.23 under the world record. Can he hold
:04:27. > :04:34.on? Also going well is McAvoy. Can he hold on, Morozov, is he going to
:04:34. > :04:40.steal it? James Magnusson, is he going to get it? Magnusson gets the
:04:40. > :04:47.gold. He defends the title he won two years ago. He has done it again.
:04:47. > :04:57.The silver has gone too I think it was Nathan Adrian of the USA.
:04:57. > :05:03.
:05:04. > :05:07.think it was Feigen. And then McAvoy was third. Morozov was fifth!
:05:07. > :05:11.Magnussen has successfully defended Magnussen has successfully defended
:05:11. > :05:17.his championship. You said there was a bit more in the
:05:17. > :05:22.tank. Was that something to prove? think there was a lot of emotion in
:05:22. > :05:27.the swim for me. I have had a lot of tough times in the last year.
:05:27. > :05:32.us about them because maybe the Brits don't know, although we like
:05:32. > :05:35.to relish in a bit of Australian bashing, don't we? My confidence got
:05:35. > :05:42.knocked, there was a lot of controversy around swimming in
:05:42. > :05:45.Australia. And I just wanted to get back to the top. I have done that.
:05:45. > :05:49.Hopefully the Aussie cricketers can follow suit!
:05:49. > :05:56.We had two women in the final of the 50 meter backstroke. Maura Quigley
:05:56. > :06:02.50 meter backstroke. Maura Quigley and Georgia Davies.
:06:02. > :06:10.Laura Quigley is in one and Georgia Davies is innate. Manchester's Laura
:06:10. > :06:15.Quigley right on top, and Georgia Davies is at the bottom. A very good
:06:15. > :06:25.start in lane two from the Brazilian. This is very tight down
:06:25. > :06:27.
:06:27. > :06:37.this first 25 metres. The Chinese are doing very well. Who is it going
:06:37. > :06:44.
:06:44. > :06:52.to be? Fu? No, Zhao wins. The silver goes to Fu and it is the Chinese 12.
:06:52. > :06:55.So, Zhao wins the final of the 50 metres backstroke. It is a 1-2 for
:06:56. > :07:01.China. Great Britain in sixth and eighth, good swim from the British
:07:01. > :07:05.eighth, good swim from the British women.
:07:05. > :07:08.So, they didn't get medals this time, but how good is that the
:07:08. > :07:14.British swimming to have that strength and depth in an event and
:07:15. > :07:19.have those girls pushing each other in the way that you had a rivalry
:07:19. > :07:23.between Joe Jackson? This is Lauren's first competition so she
:07:23. > :07:26.will appreciate having Georgia in the pool, and helping out with
:07:26. > :07:31.anything she is uncertain with. But they are so close on everything.
:07:31. > :07:35.They came joint on the semifinals, and it would be brilliant if they
:07:35. > :07:40.can train a bit together over the next few years, help each other and
:07:40. > :07:43.push each other on. It is nice they get on as well, because it is
:07:43. > :07:49.friendly rivalry. They spend so much time together, it would be nice to
:07:49. > :07:54.have that camaraderie. They definitely do. It is the 100 metres
:07:54. > :08:04.free now, Missy Franklin in the race. But we will be watching Kate
:08:04. > :08:12.
:08:12. > :08:17.Kate Campbell the fastest in the world is in five. Good start up in
:08:17. > :08:26.three. Look at that. A good start from Cate Campbell, right in the
:08:26. > :08:36.centre with a yellow hat. Look at that, she has got a body length over
:08:36. > :08:38.
:08:38. > :08:43.everybody else. 0.6 under the world-record pace. And she comes
:08:43. > :08:53.back, Cate Campbell. The charge of the light Brigade, Missy Franklin
:08:53. > :08:54.
:08:54. > :09:03.coming back. Underneath the world-record. The world-record is.
:09:03. > :09:07.Falling off it now. Come on, get in! 52.34. A very good swim and a new
:09:07. > :09:15.world champion in the women's 100 metres freestyle is Australia's Cate
:09:16. > :09:21.Campbell. The silver has gone to Sarah Sjostrom. What a swim. That
:09:21. > :09:24.was stunning. She did what she did in the relay and used her natural
:09:24. > :09:30.speed to get out. She was a body length ahead of the field. She
:09:30. > :09:36.couldn't hold on for the world-record. So, these are the
:09:36. > :09:42.results. Cate Campbell is the Bob Champion. A great silver for Sarah
:09:42. > :09:47.Champion. A great silver for Sarah Sjostrom. Missy Franklin is for.
:09:47. > :09:52.You have a lovely collection of bronze medals, nice to add that
:09:52. > :09:59.gold? It means so much to me. I really owe this to my friends and
:09:59. > :10:03.family, and coach, who have really stuck by me, and it is then I will
:10:03. > :10:08.be thinking of one I am singing my national anthem. Not everybody
:10:08. > :10:12.realises you been around for a long time. So much experience. You
:10:12. > :10:17.Australia and is now have 100 guys and 100 girls, so you must be very
:10:17. > :10:20.pleased. And they are bringing in mixed relays in the next World
:10:20. > :10:25.Championships, the world had better watch out because the Aussies are on
:10:25. > :10:29.their way! Cate Campbell with a fabulous swim,
:10:29. > :10:33.she blew them away. What's interesting about her is she didn't
:10:33. > :10:38.compete at the Olympic games last year. It is nice to see a new face
:10:38. > :10:43.coming through. She had a fantastic race, she wasn't going to let anyone
:10:43. > :10:49.touch out there. That world-record is under threat if she can keep the
:10:49. > :10:55.last 25 as strong as the first 75. Very much so. When she looks at the
:10:55. > :10:59.way she swam her race, when she gets stronger, works on the speed and
:10:59. > :11:04.insurance, a lot of people were surprised that Missy Franklin didn't
:11:04. > :11:10.come back, but she doesn't have so much speed. The race is too short
:11:10. > :11:15.for her. Cate will take that record, it is a matter of time. It is the
:11:15. > :11:20.men's 200 metres backstroke next. We have representation in the shape of
:11:20. > :11:24.Craig McNally. The real contenders for this, Tyler Clary, fastest
:11:24. > :11:34.qualifier, and the Japanese have two swimmers on whom they are putting a
:11:34. > :11:48.
:11:48. > :11:56.he has had a good start. He has had the best start of the whole
:11:56. > :12:01.Championships. Lochte had a good one, too. He has been shaking off
:12:01. > :12:08.the cobwebs a little bit through the heats and semis before this one. We
:12:08. > :12:15.haven't seen the best of him yet on the backstroke. He is a real fighter
:12:15. > :12:23.on the backend. If he is anywhere near the medals position. These
:12:23. > :12:27.Americans are so good at the turns. Look at Lochte. Interesting tactic,
:12:27. > :12:33.this. He normally goes out relatively comfortably, and then
:12:33. > :12:39.works the last turn. We have to see how he does on this one. Watch his
:12:39. > :12:49.underwater phase, utterly brilliant. He's got to come up before the red
:12:49. > :12:52.
:12:52. > :12:59.marker. Look at that! McNally is doing very well. McNally's /rate is
:12:59. > :13:09.a lot slower than Lochte. The 21-year-old from Poland is
:13:09. > :13:12.
:13:12. > :13:17.challenging Lochte. This is fascinating Kubecki is so good
:13:18. > :13:23.underwater. Poland is looking very good. I bet Lochte didn't expect
:13:23. > :13:30.this! Yes, he's going to have to come back very strong but I think
:13:30. > :13:34.Lochte has got the strength, but the youngster, Kubecki has got a lot of
:13:34. > :13:44.strength. The gold goes to Lochte, successfully defending that title he
:13:44. > :13:45.
:13:45. > :13:50.won two eMac years ago -- two years ago, but the bronze goes -- the
:13:50. > :14:00.silver goes to Kubecki. An awesome swim. Craig McNally breaks the
:14:00. > :14:05.
:14:05. > :14:07.Scottish record! Ryan Lochte of the USA wins the 200 metres backstroke.
:14:07. > :14:12.USA wins the 200 metres backstroke. We will see a lot more of Craig
:14:12. > :14:22.We will see a Not far off the British record, a
:14:22. > :14:23.
:14:23. > :14:27.really exciting talent that you are. Yes, I'm happy with that swim. I
:14:27. > :14:30.couldn't be more happy with that. What have you been doing in the last
:14:30. > :14:37.year? How have you adapted your training to make such a big
:14:37. > :14:42.improvement? I have had such a slightly -- I have had a slightly
:14:42. > :14:44.different approach, focusing on building up my strength, trying to
:14:44. > :14:48.transfer that from the gym into a stronger and more powerful
:14:48. > :14:51.technique. I don't know what it is about breaststroke about these
:14:51. > :14:57.championships but the women can't stop breaking world records.
:14:57. > :15:04.Pedersen broke the 200 metres record in the semifinals by half a second.
:15:04. > :15:14.The year to the day that it was set at the London 2012 Olympics. This
:15:14. > :15:43.
:15:43. > :15:48.in the white hat. It looks like they are really going from the start.
:15:48. > :15:58.19-year-old Spanish is going right through her. That will give the
:15:58. > :15:59.
:15:59. > :16:09.crowd something to cheer for. Lauren is in third place is a threat for
:16:09. > :16:15.
:16:15. > :16:25.the medals. When she broke the world record last night, she is down on
:16:25. > :16:33.
:16:33. > :16:43.the first 50. The pink cap is a very dangerous position. Rikke Pedersen
:16:43. > :16:53.
:16:53. > :16:58.is leading at the first half. Pedersen is having to do all the
:16:58. > :17:07.work. It is not over, though, because Rikke Pedersen is very
:17:07. > :17:17.strong in the last 50m. I read to know how to call this. A quarter of
:17:17. > :17:18.
:17:18. > :17:28.the second splitting them at the moment. Could she steal the gold
:17:28. > :17:36.
:17:36. > :17:45.medal? She is giving everything. She is on the world-record pace at the
:17:45. > :17:55.moment. Just outside the world record. She takes the gold! Goodness
:17:55. > :17:58.
:17:58. > :18:08.me! Rikke Pedersen takes the silver. I think we called it. It was the
:18:08. > :18:10.
:18:11. > :18:15.first 100m, she swam it so well. was purely about the gold medal. She
:18:15. > :18:25.knows exactly what to do and she looks so calm and relaxed. She has a
:18:25. > :18:30.
:18:30. > :18:36.lot of experience, even though she lot of experience, even though she
:18:36. > :18:43.is three years younger. world-record but it lived up to
:18:43. > :18:48.their billing, what a race! pasted absolutely perfectly. It was
:18:48. > :18:52.bittersweet because she still has the world-record so even though she
:18:52. > :18:57.didn't get the gold, she still has the record. Coming from yesterday,
:18:57. > :19:03.she must have felt invincible but the boys said in a commentary that
:19:03. > :19:07.they felt she was the most relaxed. Could it be a burden, having raced
:19:07. > :19:13.so well yesterday? I don't think so, just paste it better. She went out
:19:13. > :19:23.so relaxed and had much more to give on the last 50m. You could see the
:19:23. > :19:27.
:19:27. > :19:33.gear? It became more of a sprint, the way her legs were. She turned it
:19:33. > :19:43.on and went for a bit of a sprint. They obviously know each other 's
:19:43. > :19:49.
:19:49. > :19:53.split. It was a bit of mind games as well. We have saved the best until
:19:53. > :19:57.last. We had such a strong tradition in Great Britain in the breaststroke
:19:57. > :20:02.and it is the men's 200 metres breaststroke final with two Brits
:20:02. > :20:12.are going. Andrew Willis and Michael Jamieson who got silver in London
:20:12. > :20:28.
:20:28. > :20:33.Jamieson who got silver in London last year. Best of British, boys!
:20:33. > :20:43.The best start of the whole field, the white cap in lane three is Great
:20:43. > :20:48.
:20:48. > :20:55.Britain 's Andrew Willis. He did this in the semifinal last night. He
:20:55. > :21:05.has stepped his stroke up. Great Britain, first and second to turn.
:21:05. > :21:06.
:21:06. > :21:10.It would be a great way to finish the final if that could be the end.
:21:10. > :21:20.The Russian in the Black hat also looking very good. This is really
:21:20. > :21:22.
:21:22. > :21:32.cat and mouse. Choose between that and not! The two Britons are looking
:21:32. > :21:36.
:21:36. > :21:38.good. The Japanese at the bottom of the screen is in third place.
:21:38. > :21:48.right on the world-record pace, they are really going very much very
:21:48. > :22:01.
:22:01. > :22:06.quickly. Fantastic swim. A quarter of a second ahead with one length to
:22:06. > :22:14.go and they will all come charging now. Michael Jamieson is still going
:22:14. > :22:17.well. He still has a pretty good stroke on the left-hand side. The
:22:17. > :22:27.main guys are coming through and they are really charging. The
:22:27. > :22:28.
:22:28. > :22:38.world-record is currently held by the Japanese swimmer. Oh, just
:22:38. > :22:43.
:22:43. > :22:51.outside the record. What a brilliant swimmer! Rid Britain, fourth and
:22:51. > :22:56.fifth. So close. Masterful swimming from him. This guy was in the
:22:56. > :23:06.Olympics in 2004 at the age of 15 and got a silver medal. He swam that
:23:06. > :23:06.
:23:06. > :23:14.so well. A new world championship so well. A new world championship
:23:14. > :23:18.record for him. I know that you both tried 100% but a lot of people at
:23:18. > :23:24.home will be saying, why can't we reproduce what happened a few weeks
:23:24. > :23:33.ago? I am not one for excuses but I have done one weeks training at the
:23:33. > :23:38.last 11. I think those times when you're not 100%, your head can throw
:23:38. > :23:42.you around. There are also times when it is just beyond you. My
:23:43. > :23:46.strength is my back end and I just don't have the fitness here. I just
:23:46. > :23:52.feel it has been taken out of my hand a little bit. I have managed as
:23:52. > :24:01.well as I could and I got faster every round but I just don't have
:24:01. > :24:08.the fitness just now. I have missed too much. It is hard to take.
:24:08. > :24:14.compared to the track, what is the plan now is Mike touchwood, this is
:24:14. > :24:19.only my second real injury, I have been very lucky over the years.
:24:19. > :24:22.is just part and parcel of sport, unfortunately. I am not planning on
:24:22. > :24:25.having much of a break of the summer, I need to get back to the
:24:25. > :24:30.gym and get back the strength that I had lost in the last couple of
:24:30. > :24:37.months. There is only one way to do it and get back into it and start
:24:37. > :24:47.again. YouTube be back to training again, 100th separating you? That
:24:47. > :24:49.
:24:49. > :24:56.was cutting for me. I would have been very disappointed if I had come
:24:56. > :24:59.last. I was hoping for a medal so it was disappointing. A little bit of
:25:00. > :25:06.light at the end of the tunnel is, after the first round of the
:25:07. > :25:10.trials, we were not sure if he would be here at all? Added scary. That
:25:10. > :25:18.was my year at in smoke at that point. It has been an interesting
:25:18. > :25:23.journey and I am disappointed but I should have been quicker.
:25:23. > :25:28.Two very disappointed British swimmers, there. We are disappointed
:25:28. > :25:34.for them, too. Michael has deliberately not revealed the extent
:25:34. > :25:40.of his injury issues. One week training out of 11 leading up to
:25:40. > :25:47.this explaining the lack of speed? Is always hard getting injuries as a
:25:47. > :25:51.swimmer. He has done well to be here and just go through the heats and
:25:51. > :25:56.the semifinals and the final. I am so glad he didn't pull out and that
:25:56. > :26:02.he stuck with it. He would have gained so much experience and here.
:26:02. > :26:06.Andrew went through such an ordeal to get here so he was unsure that he
:26:06. > :26:13.would even be here. Other them will be disappointed but they will be
:26:13. > :26:19.wanting to get back in for a new start. You get the sense from Andrew
:26:19. > :26:24.that he felt this was his moment, his opportunity and he probably did
:26:24. > :26:30.take more time mentally to get back. The sheer disappointment of
:26:30. > :26:39.missing out is always cruel? Coming eighth in the final in the
:26:39. > :26:44.Olympics, he saw his partner Michael Jamieson getting a silver medal. He
:26:44. > :26:46.knew that Michael was not on former so he thought the bronze or silver
:26:46. > :26:56.would be up for grabs. More disappointing from the fact is that
:26:56. > :26:59.
:26:59. > :27:09.from the trials, his time would have been second. My question is, why are
:27:09. > :27:10.
:27:10. > :27:20.they resting off for the trials? of the disappointments is no British
:27:20. > :27:23.
:27:23. > :27:27.medal. Huge hopes that she will get a huge -- middle of some sort?
:27:27. > :27:32.is flowing across the water really well. High hopes, then she will be
:27:32. > :27:35.on the podium tomorrow night. she feel the pressure that there has
:27:35. > :27:40.been no success this week in terms of medal for Britain and everybody
:27:40. > :27:44.is now looking at her to deliver? Now, I don't think so. She is
:27:44. > :27:49.experienced enough to know that she has to stick to her own race plan.
:27:49. > :27:56.She chose not to do the 100m freestyle in the week and she did
:27:57. > :28:00.make the right decision. Even if she whizzes out on the 15th fly, she has
:28:01. > :28:10.the freestyle to back it up with, hopefully. Somebody who will no
:28:11. > :28:12.
:28:12. > :28:18.doubt deliver is Katie Ledecky. She is going for your 800m world record.
:28:18. > :28:23.She has had a fantastic week. I am pretty sure my world-record will go
:28:23. > :28:26.as well. I hope she does because she is just a lovely girl and she
:28:26. > :28:33.obviously works hard. She is in great form and she has got a lot
