2025 World Championships
July 27 – August 3, 2025 (pool swimming) Singapore, Singapore World Aquatics Championships Arena LCM (50m) Meet Central How To Watch SwimSwam Preview Index Entry Book Live Results Live Recaps Prelims: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 5| Day 6 Finals: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 5 | Day 6Another day, another one of Great Britain’s medley relay team dropping time. After being Greg Butler yesterday in the 200 breast, today it was Ed Mildred who made it into the semi-finals of the 100 fly, dropping from 51.75 to 51.36.
That vaults the Manchester Performance Centre swimmer up to #3 all-time among British men, behind only James Guy and Jacob Peters, and further strengthens a medley relay that, while not quite at a level to challenge for the medals, is now a solid final pick.
Dara Molnar sliced half a second off her best in the 200 back to qualify 2nd out of the heats this morning, dropping from 2:09.02 to 2:08.53. She followed that up by making it through to the final in 8th, clocking 2:09.09.
Lise Seidel was another swimmer to set a best time in the heats of the 200 backstroke this morning, but she dropped even further in the semi-finals to claim the 6th seed for tomorrow’s final. Coming in with a time of 2:10.76, she swam 2:10.00 to qualify 11th into tonight’s semi-finals, before shaving off more than a second to go 2:08.75 to touch 4th in her heat, just 0.08 seconds behind World Junior Record holder Regan Smith.
Ethan Ekk features here for the third time this week, after leading off Canada’s prelims 4×200 free relay in 1:46.71. That is 1.80 seconds under his previous best from the Canadian Open in April, and he has dropped just over two seconds in the 200 free since finishing 2nd at last summer’s Junior Pan Pacs in 1:48.76. Along with his drops in the 400 and 800 free, he is one of a number of Canadian success stories in Singapore.
Another, and perhaps a more unexpected one, is Blake Tierney in the 200 backstroke. He made waves yesterday with a big national record in the heats, which he clipped further with a 1:55.03 in the semi-finals. He was ever so slightly slower today in 1:55.09, but has dropped 1.71 seconds from his best and reclaimed his Canadian Record from Ekk this week. He has cemented himself as a contender in this event, and more importantly a consistent one, a year on from adding nearly two seconds to miss the semi-finals in Paris.
Another 4×200 free leadoff from prelims features here, with Kim Youngbeom‘s 1:45.71 for Korea a 0.41 second PB and only 0.11 seconds off the time it took to make the individual final. Korea now have three 1:45-point swimmers and a 1:44-point in Hwang Sunwoo – although they just missed their National Record and the podium in the final tonight, they are now a serious medal contender.
Jere Hribar dropped time from his 50 free best in both heats and semis of the 50 free today, missing out on his first world final by just 0.02 seconds. Coming in with a time of 21.94, he was 21.86 this morning before shaving another seven-hundredths off to go 21.79. Although he wasn’t able to add the national record in the 50 like he did in the 100 leading off the 4×100 free relay, he should be a finals contender at Europeans next year if he continues the progress he’s shown in 2024-25.
Lily Price made it two Australians in the women’s 50 fly tomorrow, joining Alexandria Perkins by clipping her best in 25.61, just 0.28 seconds off Holly Barratt‘s Australian Record. She wasn’t the only swimmer to set a new best and be within sight of a record – Erin Gallagher qualified 3rd in a new South African record of 25.39, a single hundredth of a second away from Farida Osman‘s African Record.
The South African success was not limited to Gallagher, as Kaylene Corbett ensured that they came away with a medal in the 200 breast even without Tatjana Smith. She has qualified for the final at the last six major championships she has competed in, and added a worlds bronze to her silvers from the 2022 Commonwealth Games and 2023 World University Games, clocking a time of 2:23.54 to tie with NAA’s Alina Zmushka.
