2026 Swiss SC Championships
November 13-15, 2026 Lausanne, Switzerland SCM (25 Meters) Meet Central Live Results Day 1 RecapNoe Ponti continued his stellar short course form at the Swiss SC Championships today, lowering Alberto Razzetti‘s European record in the 200 fly.
Ponti clocked 1:48.56, shaving 0.08 seconds off Razzetti’s mark of 1:48.64, which he swam to win silver at the 2024 World Short Course Championships. Ponti also sliced three-quarters of a second off his own national record of 1:49.32.
After cruising through the heats in 1:56.61 Ponti brought the heat from the off in the final, touching two seconds clear of the field after the first 50. He turned in 51.35 at the halfway point, nearly three-quarters of a second ahead of European record pace, but gave back almost all of that advantage on the third 50.
Ponti split 28.67 to Razzetti’s 27.92 and was just 0.09 seconds ahead with 50 to go, but matched Razzetti’s closing speed with a 28.54 final 50.
Ponti’s previous best time was set at the second World Cup stop in Westmont last October, and featured a similarly quick opening 100. He went out in 51.04 then, three tenths of a second faster than he did here, but hit a wall on the final 50 with a split of 29.45.

His swim here moved him up from 12th all-time in the 200 fly to 7th, and only two of those ahead of him, Luca Urlando and Ilya Kharun, are likely to swim the event in Beijing.
Ponti had moved away from the 200 fly in long course international competition, but is the reigning European short course champion after clocking 1:50.17 last December. He did not swim the event at either the 2025 World Championships nor the 2026 European Championships.
This record means that Ponti has held all three fly European records this year, however not all concurrently. He was the 50 fly world and European record holder until last month when Egor Kornev claimed that standard.
Ponti still owns the 100 fly mark in 47.78, which was a world record until Josh Liendo broke it last October with a 47.71. Ponti is a little further away from the 200 fly world record, which stands at 1:46.85, set by Tomoru Honda in 2022. Honda is currently banned from competition until after the 2028 Olympic Games.
This swim follows some strong 100 fly performances from Ponti already this short course season. He clocked 49.02 at the Nico Sapio trophy two weeks ago, and posted a rapid 48.25 in the final yesterday after a strong 49.12 in the heats. He currently leads the season rankings.
