Leon Claims Another World Record
The New Indian Express Madurai
|July 31, 2025
LEON Marchand said it would take a few months for it to sink in after smashing the 200m individual medley world record in Singapore on Wednesday, two years after beating Michael Phelps' 400m mark.
Swimming in the semi-finals at the Worlds, the 23-year-old Frenchman clocked 1min 52.69sec to wipe more than a second off the previous 200m IM record of 1:54.00 set by Ryan Lochte in 2011. Marchand now owns both medley world records after taking down Phelps's 400m mark at the 2023 Worlds. That time had stood since the 2008 Beijing Olympics and was the American great's last remaining record.
