BRITAIN have scored another GOLD medal in the Tokyo Olympic games in a near world-record setting swim.

Duncan Scott brought home the gold in the Men’s 4x200m freestyle relay following a fantastic race that beat out the competition by over 2 whole seconds.

GB won the race with a staggering time of 6:58.58 coming just milliseconds from the World Record time of 6:58:55.

ROC was second at 7:01.81 and Australia was third at 7:01.84.

Mark Foster, former freestyle world champion, told the BBC: “It was a demonstration at the end.

“I so wanted them to get the world record – but they will get it, because it is a young team.

“What a mature performance.”
