India’s campaign at World Swimming Championships ends
India’s forgettable campaign at the Swimming World Championships came to an end with Shoan Ganguly’s 28th place finish in the men’s 400m individual medley in Singapore on Sunday.
The 20-year-old, who entered the meet on the back of a record-breaking swimming nationals, clocked 4:30.40s as he failed to make the eight-man final.
The effort was far inferior to his ‘Best Indian Time’ of 4:24.64s he set on the way to winning a gold at the nationals in June.
Indian swimmers endured an underwhelming run at the world meet with none of them making it past their heats or even improving their personal best timings.
