Record six for Franklin

American teenager Missy Franklin became the first woman to win six golds at a single world championships when she helped the United States to victory in the 4x100 metres medley relay on Sunday.
The 18-year-old swam the opening, backstroke leg in the hilltop pool in Barcelona and the US triumph followed her titles this week in 100 and 200 backstroke, 200 freestyle and the 4x100 and 4x200 freestyle relays.
She was fourth in Friday's 100 freestyle.
Franklin's sixth gold is one more than the previous record of five she jointly held with compatriot Tracy Caulkins and Australia's Libby Trickett.
The only other woman to win six golds at a world championships or Olympics is East German Kristin Otto at the 1988 Summer Games in Seoul.
Not to be outdone by her teammate, 16-year-old Katie Ledecky secured her second world record and fourth gold of the meet in the 800m freestyle.
Ledecky had smashed the 1500m world record by six seconds earlier in the week, but she sneaked past Rebecca Adlington's record in the 800m by just two tenths of a second as, just like in the 1500m, Denmark's Lotte Friis and New Zealander Lauren Boyle picked up silver and bronze respectively.
There was to be no 16th world title for Ryan Lochte on his 29th birthday as he could only finish sixth in the men's 100m butterfly with Chad Le Clos claiming his second gold of the championships.
And there was also a second title of the meet for Brazil's Cesar Cielo as he claimed gold in star-studded 50m freestyle final that contained five Olympic champions.
