Siobhan Haughey on 1:54.3/52.4 200/100 Free in Bergen: “It’s a really good sign moving forward”

2026 Bergen Swim Festival

4x Olympic medalist in the 100 & 200 freestyle Siobhan Haughey showed her pedigree in Bergen, and maybe even 1-upped herself in the process. In the 200 free on night 1, Haughey won the event and set the meet record in 1:54.31, a faster time than she went to win Olympic bronze in Paris.

In the 100 free the next night, Haughey gave 2x defending world champion Marrit Steenbergen a run for her money, touching in 2nd at 52.40 to Steenbergen’s 52.33. Both times would have won world championships in Singapore last summer.

Somewhat surprised China doesn’t have her compete as part of their team – she would really boost their relays.

It’s all about the money. She ditched Ireland for the same reason.

Huge prize money is offered at the Olympics and Asian Games, if you rep the Special Administrative Region Of China.
Not to mention that gets princess treatment there and she loves that glazing.
