Australian swimming prodigy, Ariarne Titmus, has once again made waves in the world of swimming by setting a new world record and winning the gold medal in the women’s 400m freestyle at the World Championships in Fukuoka, Japan. However, it’s not just her incredible swim that has garnered attention, but also the exuberant reaction from her coach, Dean Boxall.
Titmus swam an impressive time of 3:55:38, leaving her rivals, Katie Ledecky and Summer McIntosh, in her wake. This remarkable performance has earned her praise from Australian swimming legend, Ian Thorpe, who described her swim as “obliterating” the competition.
Thorpe also couldn’t help but comment on Boxall’s extravagant celebration, jokingly suggesting that the railing Boxall shook might not have expected such a wild reaction.
In a post-race interview, Titmus expressed her satisfaction with this victory, stating that it was her most fulfilling win yet. She also contributed to Australia’s success on that day, as the women’s 4x100m freestyle relay team broke their own world record.
This triumph adds to Australia’s impressive legacy of gold medallists in swimming at the Olympics, proving their continued dominance in the sport.
