Great Britain’s Jacob Peters finished with two medals and a lifetime best on day two of the European Short Course Swimming Championships in Romania.

Peters, 23, recorded a personal best time of 49.98 seconds as he won bronze in the men’s 100m butterfly.

He was then part of the men’s 4x50m medley team – with Oliver Morgan, Archie Goodburn and Matt Richards – who took silver.

Britain won two gold, a silver and a bronze on the first day.

Peters, who recorded a time of 49.98 seconds in his individual event, said: “It’s my first time sub-50 – I still think there is more in me, but it’s my first ever individual international medal ever so hopefully that’s a sign of things to come.

“It gives me a lot of confidence going into a big year, the Olympic year.”

The event runs until 10 December.
