Jordan Wilimovsky of the United States won the men's 10 kilometre open water gold at the world championships in Kazan on Monday.
The 21-year-old finished in a winning time of 1hr 49min 48.2sec as Dutch swimmer Ferry Weertman took silver, 12.1sec behind, while 35-year-old defending world champion Spyridon Gianniotis of Greece claimed bronze, at 12.5sec.
Gianniotis had been bidding for a third straight crown having won the 10km title at both the Barcelona 2013 and Shanghai 2011 world championships.
It was the US team's second open water gold of these world championships after Haley Anderson won the women's five kilometre title on Saturday.
