A big day for Canada lept them into a tie with Italy for the second-most money earned during the 2021 Short Course World Championships so far.
The Canadians picked up three victories, one from Maggie MacNeil in the 50 back, another from Sydney Pickrem in the 800 free relay and the other from their women’s 800 free relay. They also earned a $50,000 World Record bonus for MacNeil, and just-missed another by the women’s 800 free relay, who were .11 seconds short of the Netherlands’ mark from the 2014 World Championships.
In total Canadian swimmers earned $109,500 on Monday, which is the highest single-day earnings by a country so far at the meet.
