GWANGJU, South Korea - Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu moved a step closer to becoming the first woman to win five world titles in a single event after qualifying fastest for the 400 meters individual medley in Sunday’s heats.
The 30-year-old world record holder and Olympic champion won her fourth straight 200 medley title earlier in the week and will return to the pool for the final later on Sunday, the last day of the meet. Dressel is expected to come into the team for the butterfly leg but it will not be plain sailing for the Americans with Russia going fastest in the heats.
“So many different countries are able to string together some competitive teams so it was going to be really, really tough to make it back,” he said.In the women’s event, the United States posted the fastest time in the heats ahead of Australia and Italy. Chief executive Leigh Russell said they had been bound by confidentiality while an investigation was conducted by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority.
