Swimmer Lewis Clareburt has claimed a maiden world championship title, winning the 400-metre individual medley in Doha.

His time of 4 minutes and 9.72 seconds was 1.02 seconds off his personal best.

Before the meet, New Zealand had never had a world champion - now they have two after Erika Fairweather's triumph in the 400 metres freestyle.
