set by American Dana Vollmer at the 2012 Lon- don Olympics in the semi- finals on Sunday. In the fi- nal, the Swede led at the turn and won by a body length, touching in 55.64 seconds. She dipped a hun- dredth of a second lower than her mark a day ear- lier while finishing 1.41 sec- onds ahead of Jeanette Ot- tesen of Denmark. "My plan was to break the world record in the semifinals because there is always more pressure in the final," Sjostrom said. "So I'm very happy that I could show myself that I could swim even with all this pressure." Ottesen earned silver in 57.05 and Lu Ying of China took bronze in 57.48. Hosszu defended her 2013 title in the 200 IM, winning in 2 minutes, 6.12 seconds. That bettered the old mark of 2:06.15 set by American Ariana Ku- kors at the 2009 worlds in Rome during a time when the sport was rocked by swimmers setting a slew of world records in rubber suits that were eventually banned. Hosszu covered her mouth with her left hand and cried as she stared at the clock. Her husband and coach, Shane Tusup, wiped tears from his eyes using the neck of his black T-shirt bearing Hosszu's nickname "Iron Lady." After the medal cer- emony, Tusup joined Hosszu on the deck and he kissed her in front of photographers. She of- fered him her gold medal and he playfully took a bite out of it. "She's been training for eight, 10 hours a day min- imum. She pretty much eats, sleeps and swims. She runs her swimming as a business," Tusup said. "To see the hard work and ev- erything finally pay off in one race at one time is just unbelievable for me." Swimming FROMPAGE1 SERGEIGRITS—THEASSOCIATEDPRESS Hungary's gold medal winner Katinka Hosszu is flanked by Japan's silver medal winner Kanako Watanabe and Britain's bronze medal winner Siobhan O'Connor during the ceremony for the women's 200m individual medley final at the Swimming World Championships in Kazan, Russia, Monday. Brown said. "To be consis- tent for that many years with so many quarterbacks is something I'm very proud of. I don't know if a lot of other guys weathered through some of the things that had to be done. It was sometimes more mental than it was physical to get on the same page of these guys and almost babysit some of the young quar- terbacks." While Jerry Rice had Joe Montana and Steve Young, Michael Irvin had Troy Aikman, Andre Reed had Jim Kelly, Brown's quarterbacks were not exactly a who's who at the position. There were journey- men Jay Schroeder, Vince Evans, Jeff Hostetler, Jeff George and Donald Hol- las. There were fringe players Marques Tuia- sosopo, Chris Simms, Da- vid Klingler, Rob John- son, Tee Martin and Bobby Hoying. That all changed when Rich Gannon arrived in Oakland in 1999 to give Brown a top-flight quar- terback late in his ca- reer. Gannon was the only quarterback who was an original selection to the Pro Bowl while playing with Brown. Hostetler was a replacement selection in 1994. There were only three other skill position players who made the Pro Bowl while teammates with Brown: Rice, Bo Jackson and Ethan Horton each getting one selection. "Timmy did a lot of good things without a big-name quarterback," Hall of Fame defensive back Rod Woodson said. "That adds to what he accomplished. That means at the top of his routes, he was open. Most great quarterbacks can throw people open. The not-so-good ones can't. That means Timmy was getting open a lot of times. When he was at his best and some of the elite cornerbacks were cover- ing him, he was still get- ting open." Brown FROM PAGE 1 JEFF CHIU — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE Despite spending most of his career with pedestrian quarterbacks and few other big-play talents around him on the Raiders, Tim Brown earned his Hall of Fame honors by becoming one of the league's most consistent and prolific receivers. The building blocks re- ally began being put in place last offseason. Oak- land drafted Mack, Carr, starting left guard Gabe Jackson, cornerbacks TJ Carrie and Keith McGill, and defensive tackle Jus- tin Ellis to provide a young core for the franchise. McKenzie hopes the ad- ditions of rookies such as receiver Amari Cooper, de- fensive lineman Mario Ed- wards Jr., and tight end Clive Walford will give the Raiders depth that has been lacking in recent years. "It's going to be a com- petitive camp, I mean ev- ery position," McKenzie said. "It's going to bring out the best in each and every one of them. Every time you look over your shoulder and think, 'I'd better step up my game.' It's going to call for bet- ter and more competitive practices. I'm excited to see every practice, really, until we get to these pre- season games." Raiders FROM PAGE 1 The Associated Press GREEN BAY, WIS. Green Bay Packers tight end An- drew Quarless revealed Monday he missed the first two days of training camp because his daughter died at birth last week. Quarless had initially been excused from the first practice of camp on Thurs- day for what coach Mike McCarthy termed "a pos- itive personal situation." The coach's tone changed ominously the following day when Quarless was again absent, saying the sixth-year tight end was dealing with "a very diffi- cult family situation." After fully participat- ing in his first practice of camp, Quarless shared the devastating news and ac- knowledged that returning to football had been some- thing of a safe haven. Quarless had taken part on a limited basis in Sat- urday's practice before players had Sunday off. He struggled at times to keep his emotions in check as he spoke Monday after several family members, including his 5-year-old son, watched practice. NFL NOTES Packers TE Quarless loses daughter at birth right knee soreness. Gregor Blanco took his place. Pa- gan flied out as a pinch-hit- ter in the seventh. Braves: SS Andrelton Simmons, sidelined for the second straight game by an injured right thumb, had an MRI earlier in the day, but manager Fredi Gonzalez said before the game that he results weren't immediately avail- able. Daniel Castro re- placed Simmons, a two- time Gold Glove winner, and went 1 for 5. UpNext Giants: RHP Jake Peavy (2-4) is 3-4 with a 3.79 ERA in nine career starts against Atlanta. Since re- turning July 3 from back and hip pain, Peavy is 2-2 with a 3.12 ERA in five starts. Braves: RHP Shelby Miller (5-8) seeks his first victory since May 17. He has lost six straight de- cisions and is 0-7 despite a 3.19 ERA in his last 13 starts.
