Tunisia’s Ahmed Hafnaoui won the men’s 1,500m freestyle title at swimming’s world championships on Sunday.

Hafnaoui came home in 14 mins, 31.54 secs to finish ahead of American Bobby Finke on 14:31.59 and Australia’s Sam Short on 14:37.28.

Hafnaoui’s time was less than a second off the world record of 14:31.02 set by China’s Sun Yang in 2012.
