Summer McIntosh, a 19-year-old Olympic and world champion, broke the last remaining women’s ‘supersuit’ world record in the 200 meters butterfly event at Canada’s trials for the Pan Pacific Championships.
McIntosh touched the wall in two minutes, 1.65 seconds in the final in Montreal, eclipsing Liu Zige’s long-standing record of 2:01.81 set in October 2009.
McIntosh now holds world records in four events and will have chances to raise the bar again, starting with the 400 IM on Monday.
