Swimming: Summer puts a ! on 2024

Summer McIntosh wrapped up her incredibly successful year by winning another gold and a silver as Canadian swimmers picked up four more medals on the final weekend of the short-course world championships in Budapest.

The 18-year-old sensation won the women's 400m individual medley on Saturday for her third gold and third short-course world record of the week, then finished with a silver on Sunday in her international 200m backstroke debut.

Earlier in the week, McIntosh won the 400m freestyle and 200m butterfly in record time and helped the Canadian women's 4x100m freestyle relay team to bronze. Including the $25,000 US bonus she earned for each of her world records and $10,000 for each gold, McIntosh took home more than $114,000 last week along with a couple of big year-end awards. She was voted the Canadian athlete of the year on Tuesday and named the World Aquatics female swimmer of the year on Sunday. McIntosh's 2024 accomplishments included a Canadian-record three gold medals at the Paris Olympics and a standard-course world record in the 400 IM at the Canadian Olympic trials.

"I had an amazing 2024 overall, in and out of the pool, so I can't be more happy," McIntosh said.
