Miller breaks national record

Fiji swimmer Douglas Miller broke the national 100 metres Breaststroke record at the World Championship in Spain with a time of 1.09:19 seconds, shaving 0.27 of a second off the previous record holder Calum Liew’s time.

This is the 20-year-old’s second national record of the year after breaking Fiji’s 200m Breaststroke record in April with a time of 2.36:84.
 
Douglas is also competing in the 200m Individual Medley tomorrow and is feeling confident.
 
Meanwhile, Matelita Buadromo was ranked first in her heat and smashed her qualifying time by almost 10 seconds in the 200 metres Individual Medley while Caroline Puamau didn’t qualify for the 100 metres Butterfly.
