Adam Ramsay-Peaty was beaten for the first time at a European Aquatics Championships as he finished fifth in the 100m ****** troke final in Paris.
The 31-year-old, who has 16 European Championships golds, had previously never lost a heat, semi-final or final at the event.
Olympic champion Nicolo Martinenghi won the race in 58.58 seconds, with Ivan Kozhakin finishing second and Italy's Simone Cerasuolo third.
Ramsay-Peaty finished 0.01secs and one place ahead of Great Britain team-mate Filip Nowacki.
The three-time Olympic champion, who is the 100m ****** troke world record holder, said "nothing makes sense" after a disappointing Commonwealth Games last month, where he won two bronze medals.
