Georgia Davies bagged Wales’ third medal of the European Swimming Championships in London.

The Swansea flier claimed bronze in the 50metres backstroke to add to Jazz Carlin’s 800m freestyle silver and Chloe Tutton’s 100m breaststroke bronze.

Davies clocked 27.87secs as British team-mate Fran Halsall clocked a personal best and Championship record of 27.57s on Saturday.

Denmark’s Mie Nielson was second in 27.77.

The Rio-bound Commonwealth champ, 25, said: “I am pleased with that time and I have been consistent will all my swims throughout the week.

“Hopefully that will help my 100m and that is the aim in Rio.”
