British duo reach 200m individual medley semis in Baku

Great Britain's Martyn Walton and Jarvis Parkinson have reached the semi-finals of the 200m individual medley in Baku this morning.

Walton won his heat and finished seventh in the overall standings after clocking a time of 2:04.01.

Parkinson finished second in the same race, and his time of 2:04.62 was enough to seem him through as the 12th-fastest swimmer.

Leading the way is Austria's Sebastian Steffan (2:01.75), who was almost one second faster than Portugal's Gabriel Lopes.

Briton's Walton, who won gold with the 4x100m relay team yesterday, was also in action earlier this morning, reaching the 100m freestyle semis.
