Ellen Walshe and Mona McSharry impressed once again in Toronto as the duo claimed gold and silver medals, respectively, in new Irish records at the World Aquatics World Cup. On Friday, another record-setter joined the club with Lottie Cullen making her first mark on the Irish record books.

With a gold, three silvers and a bronze already secured at this year's World Cup, Ellen Walshe won her second gold in the 400m individual medley, destroying her Irish record set in last week's win in Westmont, her fifth Irish record on the tour.
