      Greatest female swimmer of all time, debatably most dominant swimmer of all time. She doesn’t just win distance events, she finishes with opponents out of frame.

    A Ledecky fan for 10 years. Many titmuses will come and go as a neutral fan ,from India, all my friends talked about 19 years Ledecky who was so much ahead of her field in Rio. Need to see Titmus in 2024 and 28

      I'll make a deal. Litmus of Australia and Ledecky. Why don't they get a tie and share the Gold and these two are going to be just like Nancy Hogshead and Carrie Steinseifer in Los Angeles 1984. They'll have the same.

    Titmus’ strongest race is the 400m. Ledecky’s strongest is the 1500m. The 800m is where they meet on more or less even terms. (Notable is that Titmus does not even swim the 1500m.)

      @Kingston Petersen Ledecky holds the world record in both the 1500 and the 800, but historically, she has been stronger in the 1500. But there was no 1500m race for women in the Olympics prior to 2021.

    • @XDF745

      800 is more similar to the 1500 than the 400. This is why they didn't used to include both in the program.

    Nice commentary by Aussie announcers. They were rooting for
    titmus but gave Katie full props.. only place they slipped a little was when they said Ariarne did have a big program…as Katie’s was even bigger with the 1500.

    ❤ ps- today in a 25yrd pool, i swam my little heart out and made a 16 second length, and was toast by the end and had to coast on my back to finish the lap. are you telling me that is the pace they are maintaining for 800 meters (several lengths and laps?) at that speed? is that what you are telling me? its not humanly possible. its absurd :) is this real? these ladies are beyond superhuman, especially katie ledecky :)
