World Aquatics Swimming World Cup: Siobhan Haughey wins again as 4 Hongkongers make finals
Olympian, who is third in rankings, will head to final leg of series in Singapore chasing clean sweep of both 100m- and 200m-freestyle races
Siobhan Haughey has won gold again in the women’s 100 metres at the World Aquatics Swimming World Cup as four Hong Kong swimmers competed in five finals on the last day of the series second leg in Incheon.
Haughey will now head into the final leg in Singapore next week chasing clean-sweep crowns in both the 100m and 200m freestyle.
In the 100m freestyle, Haughey hit the wall in 51.73 seconds, followed by Poland’s Katarzyna Wasick in 52.19, with Australian Milla Jansen third in 52.26.
“[The 100m freestyle] is always a fun event, and it’s very competitive, especially not knowing your time and not knowing how you did, but hopefully it’ll be a good one next week as well,” Haughey said.
Speaking on what her third event will be after the 100m and 200m freestyle next week in Singapore, Haughey said she does not know yet.
“I think I’ll swim something different next week, so you’ll have to find out [then].”
