Interested in what Haughey can do in the sprints. She is coming from altitude training and after so much time out of the competitions she is due something big.

Meilutytė continues to be in fabulous form, with a 1:03.07 100m Breaststroke win. Less than 1 second off from her shared world record with Atkinson

Rūta Meilutytė was the biggest "what could have been" story from Lithuanian sports, it's really nice she decided to give it another go.

 

Can't say I really believed she would be close to WR times, but it just shows how much of a 50m expert she was, the 100m is going to remain somewhat a question mark probably.

[dullard 436]

Hopefully Ruta can clean up the long finish and get the WR before the end of the short course season.
