Disappointing run continues for Indian swimmers at World Championships
Singapore, Jul 29 (PTI) Indian swimmers continued to underwhelm at the World Aquatics Championships with none of them making it past the heats for the third straight day here on Tuesday. In his signature event, the 200m butterfly, seasoned campaigner Sajan Prakash finished a disappointing 24th, missing out on a place in the semifinals. The 31-year-old, who had become the first Indian swimmer to earn direct Olympic qualification at the Tokyo Games, clocked 1:59.33s. The top 16 moved to the semifinals. The result marked the end of Prakash's campaign at the ongoing Championships, following his 43rd-place finish in the 200m freestyle on Monday. In the men's 800m freestyle, Aryan Nehra placed 23rd with an underpar time of 8:21.30s. Only the top eight progressed to the final. Nehra had clocked a personal best time of 08:00.76s in the previous edition of the Championships in 2023. His campaign also came to an end. SP Likith finished 50th in men's 50m backstroke with a timing of 28.45s to wrap up his campaign. PTI APA APA AHAH Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Scottie Scheffler wins British Open for the third leg of the career Grand Slam
Last Updated: Portrush (Northern Ireland), Jul 21 (AP) Scottie Scheffler had all the time in the world to celebrate his latest major title. This British Open was never in doubt as golf's No. 1 player delivered another dominant performance to win his second major this year and grab the third leg of the career Grand Slam. Scheffler began with a shot into 10 inches for birdie. One hour into the final round on Sunday, his lead already was seven shots and no one got closer than four the rest of the way at Royal Portrush. He closed with a 3-under 68 for a four-shot victory, sending him to the U.S. Open next year with a chance to make it a clean sweep of golf's biggest titles. Scheffler won the Masters by three shots in 2022 and by four shots last year. He won the PGA Championship by five shots in May. Scheffler finished at 17-under 267 for his fourth victory of the year. He's the first player in the last century to win his first four majors by at least three shots. He has won 20 times worldwide since February 2022, and this was the 11th straight time he turned a 54-hole lead into a victory. Harris English was second after a 66. Chris Gotterup had a 67 to finish third at 12 under. (AP) AH AH view comments First Published: July 21, 2025, 09:15 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
