It was business as usual for Sarah Sjöström, as she put down a 56.57 to win the 100 fly tonight in Bergen. She was almost two seconds ahead of Kimberly Buys (58.50), who touched 2nd. Sjöström was back to snipe a win in the 50 free, clocking a 24.14 there. That’s just off of her 24.08 season best, done last weekend at the Stockholm Open.
Sarah Köhler was untouchable in the 400 free, posting a 4:05.74 as the only finisher under 4:15. That brings her win total up to four, as she’s taken the 200, 400, 800 and 1500 free this weekend. Victor Johansson found his way to the wall first in the men’s 400 free, going 3:48.05.
Köhler now ranks 8th in the world.
