Summer McIntosh set her second senior world record in five days, winning the 400-metre individual medley in 4:25.87 at the 2023 Canadian swimming trials on Saturday night.
A huge crowd at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre roared their support as McIntosh swam the final metres of the race. “That's the first time I really, vividly heard the crowd during my race,” said McIntosh, who waved at the crowd after climbing out of the pool.
McIntosh, a 16-year-old Toronto native, set the world record in the 400-m freestyle on Tuesday's opening night of the trials, winning the race in 3:56.08. That broke the old mark 3:56.40 set in May by Olympic champion Ariarne Titmus of Australia. The Etobicoke Swim Club product, who trains with the Sarasota Sharks in Florida, just missed setting a world record in the 200 individual medley Thursday night. She won the race in 2:06.89, shattering the junior world standard and just off the world record time of 2:06.12.
