Mona McSharry on ending the World’s with a medal

Mona McSharry has won Bronze in 100m Breaststroke at the FINA World Short Course Swimming Championships with an Irish Senior Record-breaking swim to give Ireland their second medal at these Championships – and a third World Championships medal for Irish swimming.

Agonisingly close to winning a Bronze Medal in 50m Breaststroke on Friday, McSharry made up for that on Monday, lowering the Irish Senior Record she set in the Semi-Finals with a Finals time of 1:03.97.

This adds to the Bronze Medal she won at the 2019 LEN European Short Course Swimming Championships in 50m Breaststroke.
