Campbell sisters one-two in 100 at Australian trials

CATE Campbell beat her younger sister Bronte to win the 100 meters freestyle at the Australian national trials yesterday and stay on course to defend her crown at this year’s world championships in Kazan, Russia in August.

The 22-year-old Cate, who only returned to the pool three months ago after undergoing surgery, defied the lingering pain in her shoulder to win her third straight national title in 52.69 seconds at Sydney’s Olympic pool. Her slick time was the joint fastest in the world this year, equalling the mark set by Dutch sprinter Femke Heemskerk. Cate’s 20-year-old sister Bronte also booked her place at the worlds by finishing second in 53.04.
