Madeleine McCann's brother represents Scotland in Commonwealth Games swim final
McCann finished fourth in his heat with a time of 3:52.64 and advanced eighth overall, with more freestyle races still ahead.
- On Saturday, Sean McCann qualified for the 400m freestyle final at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, finishing fourth in his heat at Tollcross International Swimming Centre with a time of 3:52.64 to secure eighth place overall.
- Representing Scotland, McCann, 21, qualifies through his father, Gerry McCann, who was born in Glasgow; he grew up in England but previously competed for Scotland at the 2023 Commonwealth Youth Games in Tobago.
- McCann said, "I'm delighted. It wasn't really an expectation coming into the Championships," reflecting on competing against a strong field while wanting to perform well for Team Scotland.
- Cheered on by his mother, Kate McCann, and twin sister Amelie, the Loughborough University student now prepares for his 800m and 1500m freestyle events later in the Games.
- Aiming for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, McCann hopes his Commonwealth Games experience will help him qualify for the Great Britain team with two more years of hard work.
