DOHA: Defending champion Chen Zuo powered to victory in men's 100m freestyle in an Asian record time here on Wednesday in the Asian Games. Chen Zuo, having to settle for two silver medals in the 4x100m and4x200m freestyle relay (Japan claimed golds in both events), led the field all the way and powered to the finish in an Asian record time of 49.06 seconds. Chen set the previous Asian best in 49.56s in Nanjing last year. ``To tell the truth, I had expected to break the record before the race, so I am very happy with the result,'' said the 24-year-old Chen. South Korea's golden boy Park Tae Hwan was pushed to the second in 50.02s after taking the 200m and 400m freestyle titles. Daisuke Hosokawa, anchor of the 4x100m winning team of Japan, was third in 50.25. Xinhua
