Tobias Wybierek of Germany went head-to-head against Michał Perl of Poland and just out-touched his rival 32:84 to 33:06.
While Wybierek won the 2022 International Ice Swimming Association 4th World Championship title in the sprint breaststroke, Perl was able to retain his existing world record of 32:69. But with both men in their 20’s, fans can expect their rivalry to continue in the years to come.
