Kathleen Baker was out quick and held on, touching the wall in 59.17 to drop more than a second from her seed from this morning and move past Regan Smith to take the #1 time in the world. That also gives her a sweep of the backstroke events at the TYR Pro Swim Series Des Moines.
In second was Olivia Smoliga (59.35), who had the fastest closing split of the field and also moved past Smith’s former #1 time to sit second in the world in the event. These two were well ahead of the rest of the field, with Ali DeLoof finishing third in 1:00.10.
