Summer McIntosh breaks world record in 200m individual medley
Summer McIntosh broke the world record in the 200m individual medley, giving her the fastest time in history in three different long course swimming events. McIntosh, a triple 2024 Olympic gold medalist, clocked 2 minutes, 5.70 seconds on Monday at the Canadian trials for the World Championships in Singapore in July and August. Advertisement She broke the world record of 2:06.12 set by Hungarian Katinka Hosszu at the 2015 World Championships, the third-longest standing world record in women's long course (50-meter pool) swimming. McIntosh, 18, was previously the third-fastest 200m IMer in history thanks to her 2:06.56 to win Paris Olympic gold. With Monday's time, she passed American Ariana Kukors, who swam 2:06.15 at the 2009 Worlds, and Hosszu. McIntosh also owns world records in the 400m IM (set in 2024) and the 400m freestyle (reclaimed from Australian Ariarne Titmus last Saturday). On Sunday, she swam the third-fastest 800m free in history, trailing only Katie Ledecky's top two times. She also owns the second-fastest time in history in the 200m butterfly. Advertisement For this season's worlds, McIntosh said she plans to swim five individual events: her three Olympic gold-medal events — both IMs, 200m fly — plus the 400m free and one of the 200m free, 200m backstroke or 800m free. Michael Phelps is the only swimmer to win five individual golds at a single worlds, doing so in 2007 to set the table for repeating the feat at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, where he also won three relay golds for eight total.

Golden State Warriors jersey history - No. 14 - Claude Overton (1952-53)
Golden State Warriors jersey history - No. 14 - Claude Overton (1952-53) The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history. Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. For this article, we begin with the seventh of 13 players who wore the No. 14 jersey for the Warriors. That player would be Golden State guard alum Claude Overton. After ending his college career at East Central University, Overton was picked up with the 53rd overall selection of the 1950 NBA draft by the (defunct) Washington Capitols. The Temple, Oklahoma native would later join the (then) Philadelphia (now, Golden State) Warriors instead in 1952 after two seasons playing in other domestic leagues. His stay with the team would span a single season, his last in the NBA. During his time suiting up for the Warriors, Overton wore only jersey No. 14 and put up 3.9 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game. All stats and data courtesy of Basketball Reference.

T.J. Oshie, US Olympic star in Sochi and Capitals Stanley Cup champion, announces he's retiring
'My only contribution was that this could be a good day and place to have (the ceremony),' Oshie said, adding, 'I can't thank the Caps enough. Another first-class move by them to have my retirement here, invite all the people out. It really made this day special.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up The announcement had been expected for quite some time, with Oshie's contract expiring. The 38-year-old did not play this past season because of a nagging back injury that sidelined him off and on, going on long-term injured reserve instead. Advertisement Oshie said in the spring of 2024 he would only return to the Capitals if he found a permanent solution or fix to the issue. His final game was at home on April 28 last year against the Rangers, a 4-2 loss in the first round that eliminated Washington in a sweep. Advertisement 'I was fully prepared that could be my last game: I got the pictures taken of me taking off the skates to prove it,' Oshie said. 'I hadn't thought too much about [the end], honestly, besides that moment. Even before that moment, knowing how tough it was on really the whole team with me, what I was going through, actually saying the words out loud at the podium with my family in front of me and the Caps organization, my teammates, all my close friends, it was emotional.' T.J. Oshie helped the Capitals win the Stanley Cup in 2018. John Locher/Associated Press Taken 24th in the 2005 draft by the Blues, Oshie played 1,116 regular-season and playoff games in the league with the Blues and Capitals since making his debut in 2008. He had 336 goals and 428 assists for 764 points, including 21 points during Washington's Cup run. Oshie made an international name for himself at the Olympics, earning the nickname 'T.J. Sochi' for going 4 for 6 in shootout attempts against Sergei Bobrovsky during the US-Russia preliminary round game in that tournament. US Olympic coach Dan Bylsma figured one game would go to a shootout, hence the choice of bringing Oshie. Bylsma kept going back to him over and over. 'T.J. had been on fire that season in the shootout, and with the scouting report on Bobrovsky we felt T.J. would have a great chance against him,' Bylsma told The Associated Press by text message Monday. 'Even when he didn't score, he had beaten Bob with his move, so we kept rolling with him.' USA forward T.J. Oshie (right) prepares to take a shot against Russia goaltender Sergei Bobrovski during a shootout at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Julio Cortez/Associated Press In the NHL, his biggest impact came after he was traded from the Blues to the Capitals in 2015. Oshie took on an immediate leadership role as a key addition to the core of Alex Ovechkin, Backstrom, and Carlson, helping the team make the playoffs in eight of his nine seasons in the nation's capital. Advertisement 'I'll be the first to give credit to my teammates, because without them, I was nowhere near good enough to do it without a group like that,' Oshie said. Oshie's 76 power-play goals with the Capitals are the fifth most in franchise history. He scored 49 times in the shootout, tied for third all time since it was implemented in 2005. 'I like to think that when I was playing, that I was playing for my teammates, for my coaches, for my family, for my fans. I rarely thought about my own accolades,' Oshie said. 'To be remembered [as a 'warrior' type of player] is a huge honor because that was my goal and the way I played the game.'
