Rebecca Adlington secured her place at the London Olympics with a win in the 400m freestyle on Sunday night.

The 23-year-old dominated her race at the Aquatics Centre to earn at least one spot in the Team GB squad.

"I am feeling so much relief, happiness, excitement – it's just an amazing feeling," said Adlington. "I wanted this so badly. London has always been my target, and to actually finally know that I am going is the best feeling in the world."

Ellen Gandy also booked a place at the Games with a British record-breaking swim in the 100m butterfly.
