BEIJING, Aug 11 (Bernama) - After shaving the national 200m freestyle record Sunday, Daniel Bego did not improve on his pet 200m butterfly when he completed his Olympic heats outside two minutes Monday evening.
The 18-year-old, who holds the national mark of 1:59.40s, clocked 2:01.28s in placing seventh at the National "Water Cube" Aquatics Centre.
He still has the 100m butterfly to race on Thursday. Daniel holds the national record for all three events.
Woman swimmer Siow Yi Ting swam her fastest 200m individual medley for the year, timing 2:17.11s for seventh spot in her heat, bettering her season's best of 2:18.52s.
Daniel and Yi Ting are among five swimmers who had qualified for the Games here.
