This time fourth stings for Ni Riain

This breaststroke fourth was no relation of her butterfly fourth from the same evening last week.

In a most measured manner belying her teenage years, Roísín Ní Riain has conveyed the full suite of emotions on the pool deck of La Défense Arena.

There was mature acceptance of her fourth-place finish in last Thursday week's SB13 100m butterfly final. An acceptance and acknowledgement that she was not at the level of the three swimmers in front of her.
