Three gold, one silver and one bronze is the Swedish star's result so far and later today she can thus add further to that medal harvest during the last day of the European Championships.

Sjöström was fastest of all both in the trials (25.14) and in the semifinals (24.92) yesterday.

- Every time I am under 25 seconds feels like a personal record for me.

I'm always happy with it.

But there is still a lot to work on, she tells SVT Sport.

- I never think I have done an interview where I said that "this was the perfect race" and will never do it either so you have to wait a long time.
