Tommaso D’Orsogna captures Men’s 200m freestyle gold – FINA/Arena Swimming World Cup
Tommaso D’Orsogna of Australia captured gold medal of the Men’s 200m freestyle on second day of the 2012 FINA/ARENA Swimming World Cup in Doha, Qatar on Sunday, October 7.
The Australian swimmer showed no mercy to his opponents in the eight-lap freestyle discipline and paved his way to the finishing wall for gold medal.
With his unrelenting efforts, D’Orsogna stayed marginally faster from his closest competitor and made his way to the finishing end for the title by touching the wall with a timing of 1 minute and 43.84 seconds.
The gold medallist was followed by Darian Townsend of South Africa, who suffered a deficit of only 0.11 seconds from his former finisher and tapped the wall for second position with a timing of 1 minute and 43.95 seconds.
Townsend was traced by Robert Hurley of Australia, who stayed just 0.10 seconds slower from improving his position and clocked an effort of 1 minute and 44.05 seconds.
Hurley was trailed by Kosuke Hagino of Japan, who remained just an arm-stroke away from his foregoing finisher and settled on the finishing end as fourth best finisher by producing a time of 1 minute and 44.36 seconds.
Fifth fastest spot of the event was obtained by Kyle Richardson of Australia, who was 0.36 seconds apart and proved his eligibility for fifth position of the event by clocking a time of 1 minute and 44.72 seconds.
Richardson remained 3.48 seconds faster from Michael Jack of New Zealand, who remained prominent for sixth position of the event by clocking a time of 1 minute and 48.20 seconds.
Seventh spot of the event was obtained by Filip Zaborowski of Poland, who was 3.07 seconds behind and emerged on the wall with an effort of 1 minute and 51.27 seconds.
Zaborowski was traced by Sergii Frolov of Ukraine, who was 0.61 seconds behind and clocked a time of 1 minute and 51.88 seconds for last spot.
Furthermore, D’Orsogna was contented with his title claiming effort in the 200m event and stressed that he would train harder to excel in the same discipline at upcoming international tournaments.
