Former world champion Qin Haiyang broke the Asian Record in the men’s 100 breaststroke for the second time in the 2024 World Cup series, clocking 55.61 to earn a narrow win over Belarusian Ilya Shymanovich.
Qin’s swim broke the Asian and Chinese Record of 55.73 that he set at the opening leg of the series in Shanghai, and it also tied Cameron van der Burgh‘s super-suited World Cup Record of 55.61 set in 2009.
In Shanghai, Qin broke the Asian Record of 55.77 previously held by Japan’s Yuya Hinomoto, and lowered his own Chinese Record of 56.31.
Split Comparison
On Thursday in Singapore, Qin came from behind to defeat Shymanovich, turning more than half a second back at the 75 before closing in 14.63 over the final 25 compared to Shymanovich’s 15.26.
Shyamnovich, the world record holder, edged out Qin at the second leg of the series in Incheon, 56.10 to 56.22.
The 25-year-old Qin moves into a tie for #4 all-time in the event, matching van der Burgh and leapfrogging Nicolo Martinenghi after previously ranking 6th.
