World record holder Leisel Jones reached her third Olympics by winning the women's 100m breaststroke at the Australian trials on Monday. The 22-year-old secured her place in Beijing when she won the final in one minute 05.75 seconds ahead of her former training partner Tarnee White (1:06.46). Jones, who also holds the 200m world record, has dominated women's breaststroke for the past eight years but has yet to win an individual Olympic title. Brisbane schoolgirl Emily Seebohm qualified for her first Olympics when she won the 100m backstroke in 59.59 ahead of Sophie Edington (59.84). Ash Delaney won the men's 100m backstroke in 53.68 from Hayden Stoeckel (53.86) while Grant Hackett won the 200m freestyle in 1:47.03. Bernard again Three days, three records. Alain Bernard set a world record in the 50-meter freestyle Sunday after twice lowering the 100m freestyle mark in the previous two days at the European Swimming Championships in Eindhoven. The muscular Frenchman swam 21.50 seconds to beat the time of 21.56 set last month by Eamon Sullivan of Australia, who lowered Alexander Popov's previous record of 21.64 set in Moscow on June 16, 2000. Bernard set a world record of 47.50 seconds to win the 100m freestyle final on Saturday. That took one-tenth of a second off the record of 47.60 he swam Friday in the semifinals to shatter Pieter van den Hoogenband's old mark set at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Russian teenager Anastasia Zueva won her second gold of the championships in the 50m backstroke in a European record, adding to her victory in the 100m backstroke - also in a European record time - on Friday. Nina Zhivanevskaya of Spain was second and Sanja Jovanovic of Croatia was third. __
