McSharry nets $10,000 bonus after completing triple crown

Mona McSharry earned a $10,000 bonus after completing a breaststroke triple crown. The Sligo swimmer recorded her fastest time at the World Aquatics World Cup in Astana, Kazakhstan, adding to earlier wins in Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan to complete a clean sweep. The Olympic bronze medallist is a member of Marlin’s Swim Club in Ballyshannon. After the achievement, she is back in the pool for training and competition today in the 200m breaststroke. The report links the prize money directly to the triple-crown completion and highlights that her Astana swim was her quickest of the series.
