Who is Jack Alexy? Here's What to Know About His Swimming Milestones, Parents, and Estimated Net Worth
Jack Alexy has emerged all the way from high school swims to now internationally as one of Team USA's premier sprint freestyle talents. Alexy, who celebrated his 20th birthday on January 19, was a national-championship caliber swimmer at Delbarton School in Morristown, New Jersey, where he won state titles in the 50m and 100m freestyle.
He carried that very early success forward through 2019, when he aided Team USA to a gold medal at the World Junior Championships in the 4x100m freestyle relay. The 18-year-old, who clocked a 48.69 in the 100m freestyle at the 2021 Olympic Trials to set the U.S. national age-group record previously held by Caeleb Dressel,
Jack Alexy's rise through national and international swimming
Jack Alexy was at it again in the pool at the 2023 World Aquatics Championships, earning silvers in the 50m and 100m freestyle, with a gold (men's 4x100m medley relay), silver (mixed 4x100m free relay), and bronze (men's 4x100m free relay).
A week later, he followed that up with a silver medal in the 100m freestyle at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Trials that qualified him for the Olympic team.
Jack secured gold in the 4x100m freestyle relay on his USA team at the Paris Olympics, alongside winning a silver medal in the prelims for the medley relay. In the final of the 100m freestyle, he finished seventh. He then successfully defended his title in the 100m freestyle when he won the world championship final at the Toyota National Championships in a final time of 47.17 after a meet-record 46.99 in the prelims in 2025.
Supportive family background and athletic roots
A strong family foundation paved Jack´s way to the top. His father, Matthew Alexy, is a corporate executive with experience in risk management and finance. His mother, Lynn Alexy, was a former Division I basketball player at Notre Dame in the 1980s. More from Jack also comes from a family of athletes—his grandfather Bill Ebben played in the NBA with the Detroit Pistons for a bit.
Jack was one of four siblings- Kate, Max, and Rob.
All of them were competitive swimmers as well, growing up. Jack credited the Alexy household with instilling a culture of discipline and teamwork that he continues to carry with him throughout his life of excellence. His brother Rob swam with him at the University of California, Berkeley, both having spent time in one of the nation's top collegiate swim programs.

Martina Navratilova explodes after Donald Trump rewards NFL s*x offender Lawrence Taylor with Presidential Fitness role
Martina Navratilova explodes after Donald Trump rewards NFL s*x offender Lawrence Taylor with Presidential Fitness role (Image via Getty) Martina Navratilova expresses her anger after US President Donald Trump gave a key role to NFL legend Lawrence Taylor, who is a registered s*x offender and former drug user. On Thursday, July 31, 2025, Trump signed an executive order to bring back the Presidential Fitness Test at a public event held in Orlando, Florida. The program was once common in US schools but was stopped in 2012 during Barack Obama's presidency. To support the comeback, Trump picked several big athletes to join the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition, including WWE star Paul 'Triple H' Levesque and Lawrence Taylor. Martina Navratilova slams Donald Trump for picking Lawrence Taylor in government fitness team Lawrence Taylor is among the best football players in NFL history, but some people are angry about his position because of his previous felonies. Strong social voice and tennis legend Martina Navratilova took to social media to criticise Trump for this action. On the same day the announcement was made, Martina Navratilova reacted strongly online. She wrote on X (formerly Twitter): 'Nothing like hiring a s*x offender and a former drug abuser for this particular job…' A registered s*x offender, Taylor, who played for the New York Giants, was arrested in 2011 for engaging in sexual behavior with a minor.

Critics claim it is incorrect to allow someone with that type of history to help direct a nationwide adolescent and teen health program. This decision became even more controversial because Donald Trump himself has been linked to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Epstein was arrested for child trafficking and later died in jail in 2019. Donald Trump was once friends with Epstein, and though he denies any wrongdoing, his name has been brought up in related investigations.

On Monday, July 29, Trump accused James Comey and Merrick Garland of planting false evidence in the Epstein files to frame him. In response, Navratilova wrote on X, 'He is scared…' She has been speaking up more about Donald Trump's actions, especially when it comes to people he supports or hires. Many followers agreed with her posts, adding fuel to the debate over Lawrence Taylor's appointment and Trump's past connections. This move by Trump has started fresh arguments across the country about trust, role models, and public health.

Athletics-Hughes completes sprint double with 200m victory at UK Championships
By Lori Ewing HT Image MANCHESTER, England, Aug 3 (Reuters) - Zharnel Hughes stormed to victory in the men's 200 metres at the UK Athletics Championships on Sunday in Birmingham to complete the sprint double and secure a spot in that event at next month's World Championships in Tokyo. Hughes, who won the 100m on Saturday, clocked 19.90 seconds to break the competition record, becoming the first runner to duck under the 20-second barrier at a British championship. "Winning the 100m yesterday was pretty cool, but I wanted the 200m title more," Hughes said. "My coach will get me a lot sharper for the Championships - I'm excited to see what I can do in Tokyo." Dina Asher-Smith held off newly-crowned 100m champion Amy Hunt to win a women's 200m that was determined by a photo finish, with both clocking 22.14, also a championship record. "It was an excellent race, we needed a photo-finish because neither of us knew who had won," Asher-Smith said. "But I am happy to come here and run a low-22, it is a fantastic time." Daryll Neita, who was disqualified for a false start in Saturday's 100m -- but is still eligible to race that distance in Tokyo, according to UK Athletics -- was third in 22.30, to secure the 200m world qualifying time. Max Burgin won the men's 800m in a fast 1:43.92, while Olympic 1500m bronze medallist Georgia Hunter Bell clocked 1:59.53 to win her first British women's 800m title. Hunter Bell is undecided whether she will run the 800m or 1500m or both in Tokyo. "How cool would it be to follow in the footsteps of the great British athletes like Seb Coe, Kelly Holmes, Steve Cram, who did double up, and were successful – it's hard to decide," she said. World 1500m champion Josh Kerr moved up to the 5,000m and raced to victory in 13:44.73. "It was always going to be tough out there over the last mile but I really enjoyed the first eight laps," Kerr said. "That was fun."
