Curtis Sets New Record After Day One
Italian Sarah Curtis won the gold medal in the women's 50-meter backstroke at the European Aquatics Championships held in Paris. She broke the world record previously set by Australian Kylie MacKeown in 2013, finishing with a time of 26.56 seconds. This victory came after Curtis, 19 years old, had already broken the record in the semifinals with a time of 26.63 seconds, and she validated her dominance by surpassing it again the next day. French swimmer Marie Ambré Moulou claimed second place and the bronze medal, finishing half a second behind Curtis, while British swimmer Lauren Cox took third place.
