Excerpt taken from Day Seven Finals Recap:
MEN’S 50 FREE – FINAL
Yauhen Tsurkin of Belarus spoiled tonight’s first attempt at three individual golds this meet. It looked like Brazilian Henrique Martins had the lead in the final meters, but Tsurkin got his hand to the wall first to win, 22.22 to 22.24. The 22.18 that Paul Powers(USA) swam in semifinals would have won gold if he had repeated that time in finals, but the 22.34 he swam tonight still earned him the bronze medal.
Yonel Govindin of France (22.41) just beat out Giuseppe Guttuso of Italy (22.42) for 4th place, while Ivan Kuzmenko (Russia) and Seth Stubblefield (USA) tied for 6th at 22.44. Filip Wypych of Poland rounded out the field with a 22.58.
