Emma McKeon Downs Commonwealth Record in 200 Free

Rio Olympic hopeful Emma McKeon has saved the best till last, smashing the seven-year-old 200m freestyle Commonwealth record on the final night of competition at the Swimming NSW State Open Championships at the Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre tonight.

McKeon touched the wall in 1:55.53, breaking the 2009 Commonwealth record set by British girl Joanne Jackson in 2009 by the barest of margins – 0.01 of a second as well as lowering her own Australian record by 0.04.

“I was expecting to do a fast time because of the times I have been doing in training, but when I touched the wall it didn’t really feel like anything great – which I think is a good thing,” McKeon said, who will contest the 100 and 200m freestyle and 100m butterfly at next month’s Hancock Prospecting Australian Championships in Adelaide in the race to Rio.
