What to remember
The Sette Colli Trophy, a meet in Rome, was the setting for this 50 m butterfly swum in 22.27 s by Ukraine's Andriy Govorov on July 1, 2018.
Born in Dnipropetrovsk, Andriy Govorov collected international medals as a junior and then as a senior. In this event he was European champion in London in 2016 and took bronze at the 2017 World Championships in Budapest, before posting this time the following summer.
The 50 m butterfly has been raced at the long course World Championships since 2001. The Rome record belongs to that category, swum in 50 m pools.
