Hansson missed out on a European Championship medal – despite "pers"

Louise Hansson came fifth in the 50-meter butterfly final during the European Short Course Swimming Championships in Lublin, Poland.

The 29-year-old Swede was fourth after halfway, then dropped one place, swimming in 25.13 seconds. The time was a personal best for Hansson as she was the fastest of all in Tuesday's attempt (25.17).

18-year-old Dane Martine Damborg took gold in the women's 50 butterfly. Her winning time of 24.61 also set a European junior record for the distance.
