Murphy back in pool for 1,500 metres freestyle

Ireland's Grainne Murphy is back in the pool this morning in the 1,500 metres freestyle at the European swimming championships.

The 17-year-old from New Ross in County Wexford caused a sensation yesterday, narrowly missing out on a medal in the final of the women's 800 metre freestyle event.

She set a new Irish record in the process.

Her coach Ronald Clees has said she did fantastically well, considering her competition.
