Gretchen Walsh sets 100m fly world record at US Olympic swimming trials

She clocked 55.18sec to eclipse the previous record set by Sweden's Sarah Sjoestroem at Rio GamesLOS ANGELES – Gretchen Walsh shattered the 100m butterfly world record in the semi-finals at the US Olympic trials on Saturday where freestyle great Katie Ledecky punched her ticket to a fourth Olympics.

She electrified the crowd of more than 20,000 at Lucas Oil Arena, home of the NFL's Indianapolis Colts, in the first event of the opening finals session at the nine-day meeting – where only the top two finishers in each event can qualify for the Paris Olympics. "It's such a surreal experience," said Walsh, who emphatically shed her reputation as a short-course specialist. "I don't know when I'm going to be thinking I just did that. I'm trying to convince myself that that just happened – I'm just in awe.

Titmus dethroned Ledecky in the 400m at the Tokyo Olympics and broke Ledecky's longstanding world record in the event in 2022.
