It was a repeat of the Paris Olympics efficiency with the 2 once more ending first and second in a powerful discipline.
“I really feel improbable,” stated Proud after securing his tenth consecutive main championships medal within the occasion.
“There’s been many swims the place I’ve come on the rostrum at a world champs and I’ve not been glad with myself.
“Whereas I actually really feel like I needed to earn my manner via the rounds and I believe I put in a race (within the closing) that there is not likely a lot I may have improved on.”
Proud’s silver was Nice Britain’s second medal of the championships following on from Friday’s gold within the males’s 4x200m freestyle relay.
US sprinter Jack Alexy accomplished the rostrum with a third-placed end.
