Matthew Wilson achieved a World Record at the FINA World Championships 2019 in Gwangju – though it was ‘just’ equalling one in the 200m breast semis. The Australian clocked the same time of Ippei Watanabe (JPN) from 2017, 2:06.67, but title-holder Anton Chupkov (RUS) was also close (0.16sec away) so a real showdown is due in the final on Friday.
