Australia’s women’s relay swimming team broke the world record in the 4x200m freestyle at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
Madison Wilson, Kiah Melverton, Mollie O’Callaghan, and the two-time Olympic champion from Tokyo 2020 Ariarne Titmus swam fantastically and clocked a time of 7:39.29 min.
Thus, they improved by more than a second the world’s record of China, which was set during the Olympic Games in Tokyo a year ago.
The Canadian team finished in second place, and the bronze medals remained for England.
Australian women’s swimming team is performing wonderfully at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
