Licensed in Montpellier for a few days, the Marseille swimmer, captain of the French team at 29, won the first medal for the Tricolores in this competition in the absence of Léon Marchand.  

Béryl Gastaldello won the silver medal in the 50m butterfly, Wednesday at the World Short Course Swimming Championships in Budapest, offering its first podium in Hungary to the tricolor clan. The Frenchwoman touched the wall in 24.43 seconds, a new French record.

American Walsh untouchable

“It's incredible! I feel like I only made mistakes but I believed in it until the end”, rejoiced the 29-year-old swimmer, who signed a few days ago with Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole UC Natation. In the final, she was only beaten by the American Gretchen Walsh, untouchable since her arrival in Hungary, and victorious in 24.01 seconds.

The other Frenchwoman entered in the final, Mélanie Henique, finished sixth in 24.89 seconds. More of a crawl specialist, Gastaldello also qualified for the 100m freestyle final on Wednesday, after achieving the second time in the semi-finals.
