The Canadian teen shattered her own world junior record en route to retaining the title she won in Budapest
Canadian teenager Summer McIntosh cruised to the women’s 200 metres butterfly title at the World Aquatics Championships on Thursday, capturing the gold medal in a time of two minutes, 04.06 seconds ahead of Australian Elizabeth Dekkers.
Matthew Richards can later secure his second gold at the meet after stunning 2022 champion David Popovici in the men’s 200m freestyle and the 20-year-old set the pace during the preliminary races for the 100m freestyle. Romania’s Popovici, who boasts the world record of 46.86 seconds, was fifth following the semi-finals and will be eager to fire after an underwhelming fourth-place finish in his previous final at the Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall.
The duo were separated by only 0.16 seconds after the semis with Briton Lauren Cox, American Katharine Berkoff and Canada’s defending champion Kylie Masse breathing down their necks.
