Personal bests for Jersey swimmers at Glasgow 2026

Clara Ginnis was one of two Jersey swimmers to set personal bests in Saturday's heats at the 2026 Commonwealth Games.

The 18-year-old clocked 2:08.15 as she finished 23rd in the heats of the women's 200m freestyle in Glasgow.

Her achievement was matched soon after by team-mate Matthew Deffains as he clocked a best-ever time of 24.34 seconds in the men's 50m freestyle.

Deffains came third in his heat and was 41st out of the 68 swimmers that competed.

Hannah Sterry was 25th in the women's 100m breaststroke while her brother Sam was 17th in the men's 400m freestyle.

Megan Hansford's time of 1:05.48 saw her finish 23rd in the women's 100m backstroke while Isaac Dodds was 27th in the men's 100m butterfly.

Deffains, Ginnis, Hansford and Sam Sterry teamed up as Jersey beat rivals Guernsey to finish seventh in their heat and 12th overall in the mixed 4x100m freestyle relay.
