Day one of the 2025 World Aquatics Swimming World Cup unfolded tonight from Carmel, Indiana, with multiple national records biting the dust.
Among them was the women’s 50m freestyle New Zealand national record, as Chelsey Edwards notched a new lifetime best during tonight’s final.
24-year-old Edwards stopped the clock at a time of 24.11 to clinch 6th place this evening.
Splitting 11.61/12.50, Edwards erased the former Kiwi benchmark of 24.39 Hayley Palmer put on the books during the 2009 Australian Championships, a supersuited record.
Edwards already nabbed a new PB and Kiwi standard of 24.27 during this morning’s prelims.
Entering today’s competition, her career-swiftest performance rested at the 24.57 registered at the 2024 New Zealand SC Championships so she managed to hack nearly half a second off en route to tonight’s stellar outing.
Edwards is still waiting to break through the elite senior ranks, having clinched a relay gold at the 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games. This 50m free record represents her second individual standard. She already owns the LCMm record at 24.99, put on the books at this summer’s Rossini Cup.
Edwards hold NZ Records in 50 free SC (twice) , 50 free LC [24.99] , and 100 free SC [53.06]. So three standards. She has also competed in several LC world champs and qualified the NZ swimming team 4x200m freestyle relay for the Tokyo Olympics
