"I absolutely love breaststroke, it's my strongest in the IM, and when I'm turning from the backstroke to the breaststroke, that's when I'm like, 'come on, I can enjoy the race now!'" said Summers-Newton.

"Having Scarlett {Humphrey} next to me was fantastic. 

"She was a little bit faster than me in the heats, so my aim was literally to try to beat her and to get as close as possible. "

Summers-Newton also won the MC women's 100 metres breaststroke, as she scored 987 points.

William Ellard broke his personal best record in the men's MC 100 metres freestyle, securing a total time of 51.97 seconds and a score of 974 points.

Stephen Clegg took third place in the same race with a time of 54.46 seconds and 934 points.

Stephen Clegg gave Britain another gold medal during the MC men's 100 metres backstroke, securing a points total of 990.

"I would have liked to go just under 60 points and break that minute barrier but that wasn't to happen tonight," said Clegg.

"I was pretty happy with the way I swam it, I think I controlled it well and there's more opportunities to come to have a crack at it."

Bethany Firth earned another gold for Britain, as she produced a terrific performance in the MC women's 200 metre freestyle, securing a time of 2:09.45 and a total of 872.

"My goal coming in to this was to get qualifying times, and to make sure that I’m swimming faster in the evenings than I am in the mornings," said Firth.

"That’s what I’ve managed to do and that’s all I can really ask for at this stage in the season."

The final gold medal for Britain during the competition went to Faye Rogers, who impressed during the MC women's butterfly on the last day of the competition.

“I'm really happy, it's been a really long week but I'm so happy I did so well at the end," said Rogers.

"The 100m fly is my best event so I've kind of been building up to it all week and looking forward to it so I guess just from that it's a bit of excitement in looking forward to it that's kept my energy up."
