Dan Jervis set a new personal best and was only 0.10 seconds outside the consideration time for this summer’s World Championships as he cruised to the men’s 400m freestyle title at the British Swimming Championships in Sheffield. The Swansea University swimmer – who reached the 1500m final at his first Olympics in Tokyo last year – stormed clear of the field after 100m and never looked like relinquishing his lead as he finished 2.08 seconds ahead of runner-up Luke Turley (Bath National Centre). Another Welsh swimmer, Kieran Bird, – who also swam for Great Britain in Tokyo – from the Bath National Centre, was the bronze medallist.
