SEVENTH PLACE: Men’s 400m Freestyle Final

Daniel Wiffen finished in seventh place in the 400m Freestyle final on the opening day at the World Aquatics Championships in Doha Qatar while the Ireland Women's 4x100m Freestyle Replay missed out on an automatic Olympic quota spot by three hundredths of a second.

Wiffen was ranked ninth going into the event, was fourth in the morning heats in 3:45.52 and under the Olympic Qualification Time (OQT) and clocked 3:46.65 in this evening's final finding the early pace of those around him too much.
