BEIJING, Nov. 4-- Three-time Olympic champion Katinka Hosszu and top-ranked men's swimmer Vladimir Morozov finished full-handed with four gold medals each at the FINA Swimming World Cup after the Beijing leg came to an end at the National Aquatic Center on Sunday. Team China claimed a total of ten golds. Katinka Hosszu added another gold to her collection in women's 200m individual medley with a winning time of 2:05.25. After the Beijing leg, the Hungarian world champion remained on top of the medal tally at the World Cup with 37 medals. Five-time world champion Sarah Sjostrom of Sweden finished women's 100m butterfly in 55.58. But the World Cup record holder was edged by Ronomi Kromowidjojo of the Netherlands by 0.05 seconds in women's 100m freestyle, seeing the Dutch bagging her second gold in 51.51. "I'm really happy with the win and racing against Sarah is very hard. Yesterday she won (in 50m butterfly), and today I win," Kromowidjojo said. After deciding to concentrate on her study in Tsinghua University last year, London Olympic champion Ye Shiwen manifested her return to international swimming competitions with a bronze in women's 200m individual medley. "It all comes back to me," Ye said. "I kept training for an hour and half every day even when I was in university. I feel like my heart has never left the pool." "It will be a hard time to get back to my top form, but I still have dreams to realize; I'm not willing to give up yet," the 22-year-old added. |
