Louise Hansson was, somewhat surprisingly fastest of all in the semifinals.
But in the final, she showed that it was no coincidence.
She took home the World Cup gold in 55.20.
It was the first Swedish World Cup medal ever in backstroke.
- It is absolutely incredible, says SVT Sports expert Lars Frölander.
Louise Hansson has previously mostly been seen as a backstroker, but it turned out to be gold in the "wrong" distance.
- This is probably nice for Louise's self-confidence.
She has had a few years when she has not delivered in the finals, but now she has done some really good final times, says Frölander.
- We may see her most as a backstroker now, says Lars Frölander about Louise Hansson, whose victory time was the fifth fastest ever.
Hansson herself hardly knew what to say afterwards.
- I'm speechless.
It has been an incredible evening, I can not understand that I won two finals, says Louise Hansson in the official victory interview.
