Angelina Köhler Secures Gold in 100m Butterfly at World Aquatics Championships
Angelina Kohler made headlines during the semifinals at the World Aquatics Championships in Doha by setting a German record in the 100-meter butterfly. Although she didn’t replicate that speed in the final, Kohler still clinched the gold medal in the women’s 100-meter butterfly with a time of 56.28 seconds. This victory marks the first gold medal for a German woman at the World Championships since Britta Steffen’s double win in the 50-meter and 100-meter freestyle events in 2009.
Kohler set the pace in the preliminaries with a time of 56.11 seconds, also a German record, indicating her strong form. Despite being slightly slower in the final, she maintained a significant lead throughout the race. Kohler led the field after the turn, with American Claire Curzan closely behind, and demonstrated impressive speed in the final stretch, finishing with a time of 30.08 seconds.
This achievement holds particular significance for Germany, especially considering the broader context of the championships where several nations are missing. Germany had only won a single bronze medal in the previous championships in Fukuoka, but this year, with additional bronze medals from other events, they have surpassed their previous performance.
Curzan claimed the silver medal with a time of 56.61 seconds, earning her sixth career Worlds medal. Louise Hansson of Sweden secured third place in 56.94 seconds, narrowly ahead of Brianna Throssel from Australia, who finished fourth with a time of 56.97 seconds after a strong late surge.
