Swimmers McKeown, O'Callaghan and Chalmers dominate at Australian Open

The 24-year-old hit the wall well ahead of Hannah Fredericks (2:08.80) on Australia's Gold Coast to post the second quickest time of the year behind American arch-rival Regan Smith. "Honestly, I would have liked to be a little bit faster," said McKeown. "I feel like I've put in good block of training, so I'm a little bit disappointed with the outcome." The three-day Australian Open is a stepping stone along the path to June's trials where Commonwealth and Pan Pacific Championships rosters will be determined.
