Jamaica’s swimming sensation Alia Atkinson won her second gold medal at the Doha FINA/MASTBANK Swimming World Cup 2014 in Doha, Qatar on Thursday.

The sensational Atkinson lived up to her top billing when she clocked a blistering 29.12 seconds to win the 50-metre breaststroke more than half a second ahead of America’s Breeja Larson who took silver in 29.87 seconds and Iceland’s Hrafnhildur Luthersdottir (30.67s) taking the bronze.

She got off to her trademark fast start with a reaction time of 0.62 seconds, and as expected by the time she turned at the first and only wall at the 25-metre mark the battle was to be between her and the clock, as she romped home. 

The 25-year-old now leaves Doha unbeaten from four starts and will next head to Dubai where she will compete from August 31 to September 1, with her personal and Jamaican best clocking of 1:02.91 minutes over the 100-metre breaststroke in sight.

Trinidad & Tobago’s George Bovell III also mined precious metal on Day 2, when he grabbed the silver medal in a two way tie with Poland’s sprint sensation Konrad Czerniak in a time of 21.43 seconds. American football player turned swimmer the Josh Schneider took the gold in 21.07 seconds.
