2025 EUROPEAN SHORT COURSE CHAMPIONSHIPS

December 2-7, 2025 Lublin, Poland SCM (25 meters) Meet Central Psych Sheets Live Results Live Recaps: Prelims: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 Finals: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4

Although she sits outside the top three performers of the women’s 200m freestyle at the 2025 European Short Course Championships, Minna Abraham still made a statement en route to 5th place overall.

    19-year-old Abraham, who represents the University of Southern California (USC) in the NCAA, stopped the clock at a time of 52.08.

    That not only represented a new lifetime best for the teen, but it also established a new Hungarian national record in the event.

    Entering this competition, Abraham’s lifetime best rested at the 53.61 notched during this year’s World Aquatics Swimming World Cup. As such, with tonight’s performance in Poland, Abraham hacked well over a second off that previous effort to check in as the quickest Hungarian of all time.

    The former Hungarian benchmark rested at the 52.12 Olympic icon Katinka Hosszu put on the books during the 2016 World Cup.

    The final of the women’s 100m free is set to unfold tomorrow evening from Lublin, Poland so we’ll see if Abraham has more to drop when the medals are on the line.

    Italy’s Sara Curtis had a monster swim in the women’s 100 freestyle, touching in 51.29 to win the event, beating Great Britain’s Eva Okaro by just under two tenths.

    The Virginia freshman also took down Italian legend Federica Pellegrini’s national record in the event. She hacked nearly a second off the 52.10 Pelegrini swam in April of 2019 to become the first Italian woman under 52 seconds, and nearly the first Italian woman under 51 seconds.

    Okaro, who is a freshman at the University of Texas touched in 51.48, about three tenths off Francesca Halsall’s national record time of 51.19 from 2009.

    Marrit Steenbergen finished 3rd in her 2nd event of the day, touching in 51.56 to lock up a middle lane for tomorrow’s final, coming in just a hundredth ahead of France’s Beryl Gastaldello.

    The 5th qualifier, Hungary’s Minna Abraham, took down a different swimming titan with her swim of 52.08 breaking Katinka Hosszu’s 2016 Hungarian Record of 52.12 by just four hundredths.
