Teen sensation Michelle Weber made it a clean sweep as she powered to victory in both the 10km and 5km Open Water events at the 2013 Swimming SA National Open Water Championships held this weekend.
The championships, which took place over Saturday and Sunday, were held in near perfect conditions at the Elgin Grabouw Country Club, on the banks of the Eikenhof Dam, which is set in the beautiful Elgin apple-growing valley outside Grabouw, in the Western Cape province.
