Hungary's Laszlo Cseh won the men's 200m butterfly gold at the world swimming championships on Wednesday to capture his first major title for a decade.

Cseh clocked one minute 53.48 seconds to beat Chad Le Clos by just 0.20secs on the wall as South Africa's world and Olympic champion had to settle for silver.

Poland's Jan Switkowski took bronze at 0.62secs as Cseh won a world title for the first time since taking the world 400m individual medley title in Montreal in 2005.
