Three-time Olympic champion Adam Peaty continued his fine form by winning the 50m breaststroke at the Aquatics GB Swimming Championships in London.
The 31-year-old pulled away from his rivals in the second 25m to seal victory in 26.64 seconds and add to his success in the 100m breaststroke on Tuesday.
Teenager Filip Nowacki finished second in 27.10 seconds, with Archie Goodburn and Max Morgan joint third at 27.22 seconds.
In finishing in the top two, Peaty and 18-year-old Nowacki secured a place on the Great Britain team at the European Aquatics Championships in Paris in August.
"I've given everything on this preparation and the most exciting thing is the future now," said Peaty.
"The next few months, we'll hopefully get this down because I know the World Championships is much more competitive.
"I want to be on top of that [Olympic] podium in two years' time."
The World Aquatics Championships take place in China in December, but Peaty has his sights set on the long-term goal of the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

Peaty confirmed 12 months ago he wanted to push for a place at the next Games, shortly after it was announced that the 50m breaststroke event would be added to the schedule.
It gives the Briton a further opportunity to win individual golds, having done so in the 100m in 2016 and 2021.
Meanwhile, double Olympic champion Duncan Scott, 28, held off a strong challenge from Edward Mildred to win the 200m butterfly.
Lauren Cox, who won 100m backstroke gold at the 2025 European Championships, finished clear of Blythe Kinsman to win the same discipline in London.
Three-time Paralympic champion Alice Tai had to settle for second, finishing behind Bethany Firth, in the women's MC 100m backstroke.
Other winners included 17-year-old Amelie Blocksidge in the 1500m freestyle, Max Litchfield in the 400m medley and Amalie Smith, 16, in the 400m medley.
British titles will be awarded in 36 medal events across the meet in London this week.
