During the day 7 finals session of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Australian Cam McEvoy made history, winning Australia’s first gold medal in the men’s 50 freestyle. McEvoy won the race in 21.25, which was a bit off his Australian Record of 21.06, however, it got the job done. McEvoy has been on a journey of revolutionizing pure sprint training for the past few years, so let’s take a look at how his racing looks. While we don’t have an underwater video of McEvoy from the Olympic final a few days ago, we do have this video of him from the Australian Trials back in June, where he won in a time of 21.35, very similar to his winning time in Paris.
