Yu swims in 400 metres medley at World Championships, while China’s team fail to reach relay final a year after ending American monopoly
Pan Zhanle suffered more disappointment at the World Aquatics Championships on Sunday, when China failed to reach the men’s 4x100 metres medley relay final – the event in which he shocked the world at the Olympics.
Pan, Qin, Wang Shun and Xu Fang were only ninth fastest in the heats, from which eight qualified, as they clocked three minutes, 32.69 seconds – behind South Korea and more than five seconds slower than their Paris time.
Australia, who were 11th, missed out too, while the United States quartet qualified fastest for the final in 3:29.65.
