Canada's Summer McIntosh breaks own world record in 400-metre individual medley

VICTORIA - Teen sensation Summer McIntosh has broken yet another record at the Canadian Swimming Trials. The 18-year-old from Toronto swam the 400-metre individual medley in four minutes 23.65 seconds, breaking the world record 4:24.38 she set at the Olympic trials in Toronto last May. It's the third time McIntosh has set a new world record at this year's Canadian trials, after she posted a new mark in the 200m individual medley on Monday and in the 400m freestyle on Saturday. She also broke her own Canadian records in the 800m freestyle Sunday, finishing in 8:05.07 — nearly five seconds faster than her previous time — and in the 200m butterfly on Tuesday. McIntosh also holds the world record in the 200m butterfly. She won three golds and one silver at the Paris Olympics last summer, becoming the first Canadian to ever take three golds at a single Games.

Summer McIntosh breaks third world record in five days, a Phelpsian feat

Summer McIntosh is the first swimmer to break a world record in three different individual events at one long course meet since Michael Phelps at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. McIntosh, a triple 2024 Olympic gold medalist, lowered her own 400m individual medley world record on Wednesday at the Canadian trials for the World Championships in Singapore in July and August. Advertisement She clocked 4 minutes, 23.65 seconds, beating her previous record of 4:24.38 set at the 2024 Canadian Olympic Trials. Earlier at this meet, McIntosh reclaimed the 400m free world record (Saturday) and broke a 10-year-old world record in the 200m individual medley (Monday). She also swam the third-fastest time in history in the 800m free (Sunday) and the second-fastest time in history in the 200m butterfly (Tuesday). For Thursday, the last day of the meet, she is entered in the 200m free, not one of her primary events, in Victoria, British Columbia. McIntosh, an 18-year-old from Toronto, has put together one of the best single-meet performances in history. Advertisement The list starts with Phelps' eight-gold-medal effort at the 2008 Beijing Games. There, he broke world records in the 200m and 400m IMs, the 200m fly and the 200m free. Phelps is the only swimmer to win five individual events at a single Olympics (2008) or World Championships (2007). McIntosh can match that at this summer's worlds. She has 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. After worlds, McIntosh plans to move to Austin, Texas, and start being coached by Bob Bowman, who coached Phelps for his entire career.
