Sports Qi Hui Wins Two More Gold Medals

Qi Hui from China won two more golds Sunday in the third round of World Cup short course swimming championships, while Brazil ended top of the medal table.

The 14-year-old Qi Hui took the 50m and 200m breaststrokes, beating Australia's Katie Clewett into second place both times. She won the 100 meters breaststroke gold on Saturday.

Russian-born Spaniard Nina Zhivanevskaya, who won two golds on Saturday, added a third in the women's 100 meters backstroke, followed by Brazil's Fabiola Molina.

Brazil, with the largest team in this leg of the championships, won five golds on Sunday for a 10-gold haul from two-day competition.

Gustavo Borges led a Brazilian clean sweep of the men's 200 meters freestyle medals on Sunday as the third round of the 12-leg championships drew to a close.
