Lydia Jacoby on 100 Breast Win: “I knew that I could win it”

2023 NCAA WOMEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING CHAMPIONSHIPS

Lydia Jacoby won the 100 breast title at NCAA Championships last night with a time of 57.03. Jacoby, only a freshmen at Texas, took Olympic gold in the 100 meter breast in Tokyo two years ago. The race was a tight one with only a quarter of a second between 1st and 3rd place. “I knew that I could win it,” shares Jacoby, “I knew that everybody else in that heat could’ve won it, so it was great to come out with that victory.”

Great interview but throughout I kept thinking that her Instagram would be so much better if it featured content like this, instead of all the modeling. Likewise with Athing Mu, who also has a great personality but somehow is stuck on modeling obsession.

is it so hard for you to just unfollow her account since you don’t like it? how does what she posts on her own account affect you in any way?

Congratulations on a great win Lydia! Thanks for also sharing your struggle after the Olympics. I feel like that aspect is not talked enough about in swimming.
