World Aquatics Championships Fukuoka on Channel 9 – Australia’s golden girls Kaylee McKeown, Ariarne Titmus and Mollie O’Callaghan are in the pool for more finals in Fukuoka tonight from 9.00pm exclusive, live and free on the 9Network and 9Now.
World record holder McKeown will be fuelled by a disqualification which cost her the opportunity of competing for a medal in the women’s 200m individual medley, when she attacks the women’s 100m backstroke tonight.
Titmus and O’Callaghan will step onto the blocks for the 200m freestyle semi finals as they plot their place in the final.
American swimming legend Katie Ledecky also features in the 1500m freestyle final with Australia’s Lani Pallister taking the fight to her from lane three.
Arguably the best male swimmer in the world at the moment, Romania’s David Popovici, will put his skills on show in the Men’s 200m freestyle final to kick off the action.
