Spofforth can barely believe her record-breaking 100m backstroke win

Gemma Spofforth set a new world record in the 100m backstroke as she won Britain's first swimming gold in the pool at the World Championships.

The 21-year-old produced a stunning last 50m to overhaul Russia's Anastasia Zueva and win in 58.12 seconds.

Zueva, who lowered the world record in the semi-final, led by half a second at halfway but Spofforth finished strongly to win by six hundredths of a second.

Australia's Emily Seebohm finished third to take the bronze medal.

Spofforth's gold follows the silver and bronze won by Joanne Jackson and Rebecca Adlington respectively in the 400m freestyle.

Keri-Anne Payne won the 10km open water swim last week while Tom Daley triumphed in the 10m platform diving.
