Another day rolled on at the 2024 Hungarian Short Course Championships with another national age record established by 16-year-old Vivien Jackl.
After crushing a 1500m free mark on day one, teen Jackl delivered in the women’s 400m IM, posting a winning result of 4:33.58.
Her effort held off veteran Olympian Boglarka Kapas who settled for silver in 4:35.89 followed by Bianka Barta who finished well behind in 4:42.60 for bronze.
Jackl’s performance overwrote the former record for 16-year-olds of 4:35.41 Hungarian Olympic icon Katinka Hosszu put on the books in 2004.
Jackl now inserts herself into slot #9 among the top 10 performers in the world thus far this short course season.
