Kaylee McKeown just won her 10th LCM backstroke title. That’s the most of any swimmer in history. She is the backstroke GOAT.

One of the best races I have ever seen.

Cricket summarised:

Kaylee McKeown has won 10 individual global swimming gold medals (Olympic Games/World Championships). The aggregate margin she won by across all 10 of those races totals 4.41 seconds. That is less than the time you took to read this tweet. #clutch #AQUASingapore25

In their last 7 global backstroke finals (Olympic Games/World Championships), Kaylee McKeown (1st) has defeated Regan Smith (2nd) on each occasion. However, leading off in global 4x100m medley relay finals Smith has outsplit McKeown on the last 4 occasions. #AQUASingapore25

To continue with this theme, I figure since Brendon McCullum took over coaching England, England's opposition has scored 103 more runs than England, in 115 hours and 40 minutes more time.

McKeown the only Australian athlete - from any sport or gender - with 4 individual gold Olympic medals. And the only female swimmer on this World Championship table. Pretty good case for being the 🇦🇺🐐.

Translation: "The Lions have just scored a goal"

Terrific thread, feels like game theory.

These are the swimmers who have the most wins in the same individual event at World Aquatics Championships. Katie Ledecky won the women’s 800 freestyle in Singapore and became the only swimmer with seven titles in the same event.

The biggest misconception in sport analytics is that data equals unbiased facts. From broadcast view to raw data to metric creation to cleaning to models. Every step of the way a decision is made which makes data biased.
