India's Rohit Benedicton Finishes 47th in 100m Butterfly at World Championships

Singapore, Aug 1: India's Rohit Benedicton concluded his campaign at the swimming World Championships on Friday, finishing 47th in the men's 100m butterfly event. The 21-year-old national champion clocked a time of 53.92 seconds, a mark that fell short of his personal best. Competing in a challenging field, Benedicton found himself last in his heat, unable to secure a spot among the top 40 overall. Only the top 16 swimmers advanced to the semifinals, marking a highly competitive standard. Benedicton came into the championships buoyed by a successful domestic season. In June, during the Senior National Championships, he achieved a time of 52.57 seconds in the same event, recognized as the 'Best Indian Time'.
