Evgenij Pop Acev (MKD) and Pilar Geijo (ARG) were the winners of the third and last race of the FINA Open Water Swimming Grand Prix 2016, held between Capri and Napoli, in Italy, on September 4. The Macedonian swimmer completed the 36km-race in 6h17m04s, while the Argentinean star touched home in 6h46m34s.
In the men’s field, the only opposition to Pop Acev came from Damian Blaum, also from Argentina, who earned silver in 6h17m19s. The bronze medal went to France’s Bertrand Venturi, arriving more than eight minutes after the winner, in 6h25m49s.
Among women, Geijo also won “aloneâ€, with her most direct challengers being Olga Kozydub (RUS, silver in 6h47m37s) and Ilaria Raimondi (ITA, bronze, 6h50m04s).
