Men’s 50 Free
Adelaide’s own Olympic champion Kyle Chalmers (Marion) powered his way through the Men’s 50m Freestyle in a personal best time of 22.07 to claim his fourth gold medal of the meet on the final night of the 2019 Hancock Prospecting Australian Swimming Championships.
As the first event of the evening at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre, the frenetic 50m freestyle – which was over in the blink of an eye – had the crowd on its feet. Chalmers’ feat on the last night saw him finish the competition with four individual titles, including the 100m and 200m freestyle, as well as the 100m butterfly. Rackley’s William Stockwell (22.29) placed second to Chalmers in the 50m free, while Grayson Bell from TSS Aquatics touched in 22.42 to nab the bronze.

Note: All para races were swum as multi-class races, meaning athletes from all classifications competed in the same event, with the Para-swimmer the highest point score crowned the winner. The Multi-Class Point Score has been developed to provide a simplified way for swimmers and coaches to measure and compare performances. The MCPS is based on the World Record (WR) times for each classification but also takes into account weightings for non-Paralympic events that are not raced by other countries around the world.
