Hungary’s David Verraszto had the swim of his life getting the silver medal at 4:08.38 as he wins his second straight silver medal at the World Championships. Japan’s Daiya Seto (4:09.14) won the bronze medal ahead of Great Britain’s Max Litchfield (4:09.62). Seto was the two-time defending champion in the 400 IM and got the streak broken, but he will be on the podium for the third straight Worlds.
USA’s Jay Litherland (4:12.05), Japan’s Kosuke Hagino (4:12.65), Brazil’s Brandonn Almeida (4:13.00) and Slovakia’s Richard Nagy (4:16.33) also swam in the championship final.
