This is Dedown's second gold medal, after last night he won first place and set a world record in the 100-meter freestyle, and a third medal for the Israeli delegation, after Ronika Girenko won a bronze medal in the 50-meter breaststroke on the first day of the championship.

After a serious injury and a long hospitalization that prevented him from participating in the previous world championship, this evening Iyad Shelby, the gold medalist from Tokyo, returned to the pool and reached fourth place in the 100 meter backstroke final with a time of 2.33.53 minutes. Shelby, like Dedown, trains with Yaakov Binanson at the Ilan Haifa club. Later this evening Yulia Gordichuk will compete in the 100 meter butterfly.
As a reminder, the winners of the first two places in each division win a ticket to the Paralympic Games in Paris 2024. 546 swimmers from 67 countries are participating in the world championship this year.
