Tadić fifth in the B final, Dedivanović improved her personal record in the 50-meter breaststroke

Montenegrin Paralympian Ilija Tadić finished fifth in the B final of the World Series swimming meet in Linjan.

He swam the 50-meter freestyle in 27 seconds and 30 hundredths. He won his appearance in the B final earlier today in the qualifications, where he achieved a time of 27,17 seconds and won 15th place.

The Montenegrin flag bearer from the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro swam in the competition of 111 swimmers, and he performed in the S9 category.

Iskra Dedivanović improved her best result on the second competition day as well.

She swam the 50-meter breaststroke in 59,65 seconds, which is almost six seconds better than her personal record.

That time was enough for 25th place. In the 50-meter freestyle, she took the 62nd position with a time of 45,39 seconds. Dedivanović improved her best result in the 100 breaststroke yesterday.

Nikola Đukić was also supposed to make his debut in Linjan, but he did not pass the classification tests.

Lignano gathered more than 300 swimmers from 44 countries around the world.
