Alia Atkinson Becomes 1st Black Woman to Win World Title in Swimming Alia Atkinson became the first black woman to win a world swimming title when she triumphed in the 100m breaststroke at the world short-course championships in Doha on Saturday as more records tumbled. Jamaican Atkinson, 25, claimed the title and equalled Ruta Meilutytes world record of 1min 02.36sec in the process - although under governing body FINA rules this still equates to a new record. She was completely unaware of what she had done, staring up at the scoreboard with an air of resignation before it gradually dawned. Me?, she mouthed, pointing at herself before the enormity of her achievement was absorbed and so started the celebrations. Atkinsons role at the International Swimming Hall of Fame in Florida is to encourage greater involvement of different communities in swimming and to promote water safety. Hopefully my face will come out, there will be more popularity especially in Jamaica and the Caribbean and well see more of a rise and hopefully in the future we will see a push, Atkinson mused.
