British teenager Filip Nowacki claimed a dramatic gold in the men's 200m breaststroke final at the European Aquatics Championships in Paris. The 18-year-old finished with a late burst in 2:07.70 to edge out Dutch swimmer Caspar Corbeau (2:07.78). Luka Mladenovic of Austria was third (2:08.91), while Briton Gregory Butler finished fifth in 2:09.45.

Nowacki made history for Jersey last month by claiming gold in the 200m breaststroke at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Meanwhile, Lauren Cox and Freya Colbert both won bronze medals for Great Britain. Cox was third in the women's 50m backstroke final as 19-year-old Italian Sara Curtis won the race in a world record time of 26.56s, breaking Australian Kaylee McKeown's previous mark.

Colbert was third (1:55.81) in the women's 200m freestyle final, finishing behind winner Barbora Seemanova (championship record 1:54.38) and Marrit Steenbergen (1:54.65).
