ROME — Seventeen-year-old David Popovici of Romania became the youngest swimmer to break the world record in the men’s 100-meter freestyle Saturday, beating the mark set more than 13 years ago in the same pool.
Cielo established his record on July 30, 2009, at the last major international meet to allow rubberized suits. It stood longer than any record in the event’s history, going back to 1905.“There was no rush, and I had to be extremely patient about the world record,” Popovici said. “It has hurt, but it’s always worth it and I feel fine right now. It felt great, and it’s very special to break this record.
“This was a brilliant race, a joy to swim next to David,” Milák said. “David is a fantastic swimmer, I think the same crazy genius of the freestyle that I am in the butterfly. It’s great that his name will hit the headlines for long, long years.”
