Australian swimmer Mollie O'Callaghan set a new world record in the women's 200-meter freestyle at the world championships on Wednesday.
The 19-year-old O’Callaghan broke the world record on Wednesday in the 200-meter freestyle at the world championships, clocking 1 minute, 52.85 seconds to erase Federica Pellegrini’s mark of 1:52.98 — the oldest women's record set in 2009 in the fast-suit era.
"I'm just really shocked," O'Callaghan said. "I was just expecting to have fun tonight and whatever I did I was going to be really happy. To come away with a world record is just amazing."
