Jędrzejczak wins Gold in World Swimming Championship
Olympic swimmer Otylia Jędrzejczak achieved great success by becoming the world 200m butterfly champion at the Barcelona World Swimming Championships. Jędrzejczak managed to beat her rivals with a very impressive time of 2:07.56, which was just 2.76 seconds below the world record. Her main competitor American Mary Descenza tried in vain to win, but in the end she had to recognize Jędrzejczak's superiority. What was interesting was that, "She completed the eliminations and semi-finals with minimum of effort. I even told her that she could have swum a bit slower," her coach Paweł Słonimski said. Jędrzejczak now has two medals after earlier winning Sliver in the 100m butterfly in Barcelona. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A1) A.C.
