We’ve Never Seen This Before!
5x Olympic gold medalist Kaylee McKeown just did something we’ve never seen! At the second stop of the Westmont World Cup, Kaylee hopped in for the 50 back—then noticed her Aussie teammate Mollie O’Callaghan’s backstroke wedge wasn’t working.
Without hesitation, Kaylee got out of the water, told the officials her teammate needed a new wedge, then got back in, ditched her racing cap… and still won the 50 back!
Now that’s a great teammate and competitor.

Wait for the Worst Backstroke Starting Signal... 
At the 2025 Big 12 Swimming Championships, the women’s 200 medley started off with a shriek as there was huge feedback when the backstroke swimmers took their mark. 
Here’s a summary of the race after the shriek:
ASU opened their first Big 12 Championships with a win as the team of Miriam Sheehan, Iza Adame, Julia Ullmann, and Caroline Bentz combined for a time of 1:35.63 to win in a close finish. The touch for second was actually the closest of all, as Cincinnati and Arizona touched simultaneously for the silver medal, both finishing in 1:36.16. Though Cincinnati was ahead at the 100-yard mark thanks to a 25.75 split on the breaststroke leg from Joleigh Crye, Arizona brought it back over the final 100 with Lexi Duchsherer closing the gap over the freestyle leg via a 21.55 split.
All three teams dipped under the NCAA A-cut of 1:36.24, qualifying their relays for the NCAA Championships next month.

Thin margins…

The 2025 Men’s NCAA Championships started with chaos in the 200 medley relay. Texas came out on top, taking the title, but it wasn’t without drama—Florida, the defending champs, were disqualified for a false start. 

Relay starts are all about precision, pushing reaction times to the absolute limit. Sometimes, that risk pays off… sometimes, it doesn’t. 

Should teams play it safe or keep walking the edge?

Two of the best ever. 

100 yard free final - Josh Liendo and Jordan Crooks start their final NCAA head to head battle at the 2025 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships. They are two of only three people ever to dip under 40 seconds in the 100 yard free. Jordan set the NCAA record in the prelim swim with a 39.83 and during this race, the final, Josh edged him out for the victory with a 39.99.

The Men’s Ironman World Championships swim was action packed, with Jamie Riddle taking a few backstrokes while looking further back in the field. He may have been looking for Sam Laidlow who himself stopped momentarily while reportedly dealing with back cramps and finished well back of his typical position to start the bike leg.

Is This a DQ 🤔
World Record holder and 2023 World Champion Kaylee McKeown was disqualified in the first heat of the prelims of the women’s 50 back for a false start after recording a 27.27.
The call was made for a slight head movement before the signal, but after a protest, officials ruled in her favor, stating she was distracted by a movement just before the start.
McKeown was reinstated and came back to win the 50 back in finals with a 27.33 to close out the Day 1 of the Australian Swimming Trials.

What would your reaction be to missing a WR?
Summer McIntosh crushed the 200 fly at Worlds — 2:01.99 for GOLD, the first textile suit swim under 2:02, and the 2nd-fastest performance of all time. When she realized she just missed Liu Zige’s World Record of 2:01.81, she expressed her unfiltered feelings…

0.07 seconds difference looks like this.

In real time, it’s almost invisible. Slow it down, and it’s obvious — and kind of beautiful. 

The start of the men’s 200 back final at the 2026 USA Swimming Pro Swim Series – Austin, where reaction times off the block told the first part of the story.

🇫🇷 Yohann Ndoye Brouard was first to react, first into the race, and first to the wall — winning in 1:56.68.

25 Free Needed. 
On day 2 of the 2025 Australian Short Course Championships, Olympic Champion Cam McEvoy blasted a 9.36 in the 25m freestyle. For comparison, Usain Bolt’s legendary 100m dash world record is 9.58—about the same length of time in the spotlight.

What happened on this start? 

Heat 4 of the 200 Fly got off to a bizarre start at the 2025 NCAA Swimming Championships as the swimmer in lane 7 appeared not to hear the start and remained on the block as the rest of the swimmers started the race. 

Officials failed to stop the swimmers at the 25 turn so most swimmers completed a full 50, one swimming a full 75 yards before being alerted to stop racing. 

The heat was eventually re-swum 30 minutes later without issues.

History. Made. 
Mollie O’Callaghan just did what no woman has ever done before — breaking the 1:50 barrier in the 200m freestyle (short course) with a jaw-dropping 1:49.77 world record.

Out fast from the start, the reigning Olympic 200m freestyle champion set the tone early with a blistering 25.70 opening 50. But it was her final lap — powered by one of the best kicks we’ve ever seen — that sealed her place in history. Mollie closed in 27.88, surging home to crush Siobhan Haughey’s world record by over half a second.

Australia’s golden girl keeps rewriting what’s possible. The first woman ever under 1:50. The standard just changed.

Jordan Crooks made history in the prelims of the 2025 Men’s NCAA Championships, taking down one of the toughest records on the books.

Swimmers! What Would You Do?
In heat 1 of the 400 IM at the 2025 Women’s NCAA Championships, the swimmers stood on the blocks, then the starting signal went off before the swimmers took their mark! Confusion spread as they hesitated, unsure of what just happened.
Then—14 seconds later—they were sent off again, this time for real.
How would you react in that moment?

She Loves this Insane Set
Becca Mann shared one of the wildest sets we've heard—start at an 100 LCM, building to a 800 LCM on 20 seconds rest. Then you have to go down, starting at a 800 and going down to a 100 with the IM on 1:10 for the free and 5 seconds rest for the IM. Even distances are freestyle, odd ones are IM. 

Do you love this set or think it’s crazy?
