FUKUOKA, Japan : Sarah Sjoestroem cruised to her fifth consecutive World Aquatics Championships title in the women's 50 metres butterfly event on Saturday, as the evergreen Swede finished strongly to defeat China's Zhang Yufei.
Australia's Cameron McEvoy then won the men's 50m freestyle gold in a superb time of 21.06 seconds, beating silver medallist Jack Alexy of the U.S. by 0.51 seconds. Briton Benjamin Proud settled for bronze. American Dara Rose dominated the semi-finals to clock the best time ahead of Frenchman Maxime Grousset and Canadian Josh Liendo but only 0.22 seconds separates the trio.
But she can expect a tough test from American Regan Smith, who was second in the semis, and Australia's Olympic and world champion Kaylee McKeown who also holds the world record of 2:03.14 in the event having set that time in March.
