    American swimmer Katie Ledecky has set another world record, this time in the 1500-metre short-course freestyle at a World Cup meet in Toronto

    American swimmer Katie Ledecky has set another world record, this time in the 1500-metre short-course freestyle at a World Cup meet in Toronto


    She's clocked 15 minutes 8.24 seconds, 10 seconds faster than any woman has swum before.

    The seven-time Olympic gold medalist won by 40 seconds - enough time to removed her hat and goggles before any opponents had finished.
