World Swimming Championships
Spain's Nina Zhivanevskaya won the gold medal in the women's 50 metres backstroke to give the hosts their first-ever world championship gold.
"I deserve this medal," said Zhivanevskaya. "But all the people who have come here to support me deserve it more. At the start I was very calm and also a bit worried about coming in first. But in the end it went well."
