She did it!!
Diann Uustal set a new WR today in W65-69 100 back, finishing in 1:17.95, breaking the old record of 1:18.81, set by Margit Ohlsson as recently as September 30. Diann also broke her own WR in the 100 IM, touching in 1:20.86
Here's an update for the table I posted upthread, what the world record progressions will look like shortly:

OHLSSON Margit SWE 36.58 21-03-2010
UUSTAL Diann USA 35.58 19-03-2011
100m Backstroke Women Short Course
OHLSSON Margit SWE 01:20.34 21-03-2010
UUSTAL Diann USA 01:19.08 19-03-2011
OHLSSON Margit SWE 01:18.81 30-09-2011
UUSTAL Diann USA 01:17.95 11-12-2011
200m Backstroke Women Short Course
OHLSSON Margit SWE 02:56.81 20-03-2010

OHLSSON Margit SWE 02:55.02 01-10-2011

It ain't over! Margit's splits in the 200, on her way to her then WR 2:55.02, were 39.37 + 42.56 + 46.64 + 46.45 = 2:55.02. Clearly, Margit could split her race better. Who know how much faster she can go?! It ain't over!
