McIntosh Smashes 200m Medley World Record At Canada Trials
- On June 9, 2025, Toronto-born 18-year-old Summer McIntosh broke the world record in the women’s 200m individual medley during the Canadian swimming trials held in Victoria.
- This achievement followed her breaking another world record three days earlier and built on her gold medal wins at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
- At the trials, McIntosh finished the 200 IM in 2:05.70, surpassing Katinka Hosszu’s 2015 world record of 2:06.12, and also improved Canadian records in the 400-m and 800-m freestyle events.
- Her 800-m freestyle time of 8:05.07 was nearly a second slower than the world record set by Katie Ledecky in May, while her 400-m freestyle record bettered Ariarne Titmus’s previous mark by over one second.
- McIntosh’s performances qualify her for the 2025 world championships in Singapore and suggest she remains a dominant competitor with goals toward future Olympic success.
