Montenegrin para-swimmer Iskra Dedivanović swam the 100-meter butterfly final on the last competition day of the sanctioned World Series meet in Linjan and improved her personal best.
In the discipline she swam for the first time in an official competition, she achieved a time of one minute, 33 seconds and 56 hundredths of a second in the qualifications.
In the final, she further improved her time and swam a minute, 30 seconds and 66 hundredths, which was enough for seventh place in the junior competition, and fourth in her S9 class.
In the 50-meter freestyle, she swam in 37,35 seconds, improving her personal best by ten hundredths of a second.

Coach Danijela Bulatović said that Dedivanović had one of the best competitions of her career in Linjan.
"I am extremely proud of her and her progress. Every race was an opportunity to break personal records, and reaching two finals is proof of how dedicated and hard she worked. This competition was another big step forward, and I am sure that future performances will bring even greater success," said Bulatović.
