Great Britain's Darcy Deakin, Hannah Featherstone and Madeleine Crompton have failed to qualify for the 50m freestyle semi-finals at the European Games.
Deaking, who has one silver and two bronze medals to her name, clocked a time of 26.78s to narrowly miss out, with the last swimmers to clinch a semi-final spot finishing just 0.05 seconds faster.
Featherstone's time of 26.93s left her in 25th overall, while Crompton (27.41s) was further adrift in joint-38th place.
Denmark's Julie Jensen (25.55s) will be the one to beat when the swimmers compete for a place in the final later this afternoon.
