Sam Williamson was back in action competing in the 2024 British Swimming Championships in London.
Williamson’s third event of the Championships was the Men’s 200m Individual Medley.
Duncan Scott led the field out to the first turn, hitting the wall in 24.92, but was hard-pressed by Evan Jones in the Backstroke leg. The Breaststroke, often the saving grace or Achilles heel for IMers, saw Scott swim 33.34, more than a second faster than everyone else in the field, save one.
Scott, the Scot, touched first in 1:55.91, just .01 off his winning time from 2021. Thomas Dean was just half a second behind at 1:56.44. For Scott, the time represents a strong swim as he won the silver medal last year in Fukuoka in 1:55.95 and is a massive improvement upon the 1:57.75 he swam to place 6th in Doha.
Williamson clocked a time of 2:08:05 finishing 37th overall.
