Keanna Macinnes won the women's 200m butterfly on the opening night of the Aquatics GB Swimming Championships.

With the event also a trial for the World Championships in Singapore this summer, the 23-year-old University of Stirling athlete clocked a career-best time of 2:07.14 ahead of Emily Richards and Laura Stephens to qualify.

Fellow Scot Kara Hanlon came first in the 50m breaststroke.

It was a fourth British title in as many years for the 27-year-old from Lewis, who won over the same distance in 2023 after claiming the 100m crown in 2022 and triumphing over 200m in 2024.

There was disappointment for Archie Goodburn, who came fourth in the 100m breaststroke final, having been second fastest in qualifying.

The 23-year-old from Edinburgh is undergoing treatment for brain cancer, having been diagnosed with inoperable tumours last year.
