MANCHESTER, England(AP) — Julia Smit of the United States has
broken the short-course world record in the women’s 200-meter
individual medley.

Smit clocked 2 minutes, 4.6 seconds at the Duel in the Pool meet
on Saturday, beating the mark 2:04.64 set by Evelyn Verraszto of
Hungary earlier this month.

Smit also set a new world mark in the 400 individual medley on
Friday at the meet pitting the American team against a squad of
European all-stars at the Manchester Aquatics Centre in northern
England.
