A SUMMER TO REMEMBER FOR IMOGEN CLARK

It’s been a summer to remember for Chesterfield swimmer Imogen Clark after picking up a medal in two separate major events. Not only did Clark win a superb silver medal in the 50m breaststroke event at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, she also secured a bronze medal in the 50m breaststroke final at the European Aquatics Championships a few days later in Rome.

The medals won in Birmingham and Rome are a clear statement of intent from the 23 year-old following the huge disappointment of missing out on being selected for Team GB’s swimming squad for last year’s Tokyo Olympics.

The silver medal Imogen won at the 2022 Commonwealth Games was her first senior major championships medal since the previous Commonwealth Games when she won the same medal at the same event at Glasgow 2018. Needless to say, the moment she realised she was finally a medallist again was a very special moment indeed:
