Odesa's own Nikita Sheremet set a new junior world record during the final relay event of the 4x50 freestyle at the European Swimming Championship. His impressive time of 20.84 marked the start of his medal chase.

This achievement at the short course championships in Lublin highlights his remarkable accomplishments in swimming throughout 2025.

In August, at the junior world championships held in Otopeni, Romania, Nikita clinched a gold medal in the 50m freestyle with a time of 21.75 (50m pool), tying the junior world record set by American Michael Andrew and establishing a new competition and national record.

Nikita Sheremet trains at the Odesa Specialized Children's and Youth Sports School of Olympic Reserve “Dynamo” under the guidance of coaches Alla Timofeeva and Oleksandra Kurbanova.
