Aimee Canny was the standout performer on Tuesday, breaking her own national 200m freestyle record on the opening day of the SA Swimming Championships in Gqeberha.
Canny claimed a dominant victory over four lengths, speeding to victory in a time of 1 minute 56.64 to better her own national and continental record, set at the SA Championships in the same pool back in 2024.
The 22-year-old was back in the pool around half an hour later for the final of the 100m breaststroke, where she saw off challenges from Simone Moll, Kaylene Corbett, and defending champion Rebecca Meder to win in 1:06.57.
