Another title defence closed the swimming session on day 12 of the FINA World Championships 2019 in Gwangju: USA’s Lilly King led all the way in the 100m breast and won with the only sub –1:05 effort of the field, ahead of Yuliya Efimova (RUS). Martina Carraro came third, claiming Italy’s first-ever medal in female breaststroke events at the Worlds.
