WATCH: Summer McIntosh Reacts to Her 200 IM World Jr Record

2023 PRO SWIM SERIES – FORT LAUDERDALE

Summer McIntosh had a heck of a meet in Ft Lauderdale, breaking world junior records in the 200 Fly, 200 Free, and finally 200 IM. The 16-year-old Canadian isn’t focusing on records and didn’t expect too much heading into this meet, happy with the fact that she’s going best times. She also comments on world records in her primary events, noting that if she could break any world record, it would be the 200 fly.

Michael Phelps and gold medals comes to mind as more iconic….

But sure, take your swimswam and factual errors as your top pick if you like 😉

I love the possible freudian slip there:

“Only I can dream (of breaking the 200 fly WR” instead of “I can only dream (of breaking the 200 fly WR)”

Rest is just whatever, it doesn’t really matter at the end of the day.

Not sure anyone is going to match that attitude, lol.

The breeziness of a young body and mind, not yet beaten down by the ravages of time 😂
