I got schooled, says Joseph Schooling

Joseph Schooling admitted that he has paid the price for his post-Olympic hangover after his dream of a World Championships gold medal was sunk at the Danube Arena.

The Olympic champion in the 100m butterfly could not deliver on his promise to add the world title in yesterday’s final in Hungary though he still produced a stirring swim to claim a bronze medal.

He finished in 50.83 seconds, behind American Caeleb Dressel (49.86 sec) and Hungary’s Kristof Milak (50.62) and in a tie with Britain’s James Guy.
