17-year-old swimmer grabs share of 52-year-old mark
Teenage swimmer Taylor Ruck tied a Canadian record Monday by winning her seventh medal of the Commonwealth Games in Australia.
With her bronze in the women’s 100-metre freestyle, Ruck, 17, grabbed a piece of the national single-Games mark, which has stood for 52 years and is shared by two other swimmers. Elaine Tanner set the record in 1966 in Jamaica and Bill Sawchuk matched it in 1978 in Edmonton.
