Ellen Keane (Person) silver World Championship World Championships

Ellen Keane has scooped silver at the World Championships in her 100m breaststroke.

The Dubliner had a big final 50 metres as she managed to finish in second place at the World Para Swimming Championships final.

Putting in an impressive 22.02, Keane was beaten by Spain's Anastasiya Dmitriv.

And the silver medal will be all the sweeter for Keane who recently contracted Covid-19, leaving her World Championship bid in doubt.
