Just as in Dubai, Australia tops the medal table with a 9-7-3 tally (they had 10-6-2 in 2013) and the USA earned the most medals, 26 (6-13-7 – in 2013: 9-7-12, 28) and captured the Championship Trophy. Fifteen World Junior Records and 38 Championship Records fell during the six days. The last session brought a truly outstanding swim: Victoria Gunes (TUR) clocked better time in the 200m breaststroke than the eventual world champion in Kazan at the ‘big’ World Championships! She was crowned the best female swimmer of the meet while among the men the versatile Michael Andrew of the USA earned this honour.
