"It is amazing," Crewe-born Greenbank told 大象传媒 Sport.
"It is a dream come true. I am so happy, over the moon and a bit lost for words I am not going to lie.
"My first memory of swimming was watching the Beijing Olympics so it has always been an ambition of mine. To come away with a medal, and an individual medal, is absolutely amazing."
Elsewhere, Molly Renshaw and Abbie Wood finished sixth and seventh respectively in the women's 200m breaststroke final as South Africa's Tatjana Schoenmaker took gold with a world record time of 2:18.95.
USA team-mates Lilly King and Annie Lazor claimed the silver and bronze medals.
In the women's 100m freestyle, Anna Hopkin was seventh as Australia's Emma McKeon won the gold medal.
