David Popovici won the gold medal in the 200-meter freestyle at the World Swimming Championships in Singapore with a time of 1:43.53, repeating his success from 2022. His medal, though symbolic, is not made of gold but recycled aluminum, part of the 'Trash to Treasure' initiative, which involved collecting aluminum from students in various institutions. This green approach reflects the organizers' commitment to promoting sustainability.
