Khade finishes fifth

New Delhi: Olympic-bound swimming sensation Virdhawal Khade finished fifth in the 50m freestyle event of the second World junior swimming championships at Monterrey, Mexico after failing to better his National record breaking semifinal timing.

Khade clocked 22.95s in the finals, well behind the semifinal timing of 22.69s that saw him qualify second for the event on Friday.

Khade’s effort earned him 13 points. New Zealand’s Orinico Faamausili broke the championship record of 22.66s, clocking 22.37s to clinch the gold medal.

The silver went to Italian Luca Dotto, who also broke the championship record with a timing of 22.63s. — PTI
