Pichhle hafte 2025 Canadian Swimming Trials mein Summer McIntosh ne ek damdaar aur yaadgar performance di. Sirf 5 events mein hi unhone 3 world records tod diye — 400m freestyle, 200m IM, aur 400m IM — aur baaki 2 events (800 free aur 200 butterfly) mein bhi wo world record ke bahut kareeb thi.
Sabse interesting baat ye thi ki unhone 200 backstroke aur 200 freestyle jaise strong events mein compete bhi nahi kiya — jabki unke IM ke splits dekh kar lagta hai ki unmein bhi wo world record tod sakti thi.
400 IM ka world record to already unke paas tha, lekin is meet mein unhone 400 free ka record reclaim kiya aur 200 IM ka naya world record set kiya.
Yeh pehli baar nahi hai jab Summer ne ek hi meet mein 3 global records tod diye ho. 2024 World Short Course Championships (Budapest, December) mein bhi unhone 400 free, 200 butterfly, aur 400 IM ke world records rewrite kiye the.
Ab unke naam total 6 individual world records hai — ek aisa achievement jo swimming history mein bahut hi rare hai.
Ab tak sirf 2 aur female swimmers ne itne saare records ek sath hold kiye hain:
Katinka Hosszu ne December 2, 2015 ko apna 6th world record set kiya tha (SC 400 IM). Us waqt unke paas already LC 200 IM, SC 100 aur 200 backstroke, aur SC 100 aur 200 IM ke records the.
Phir unhone Rio 2016 Olympics mein LC 400 IM ka bhi record tod diya — aur 7 world records tak pahuch gayi.
Unhone 6 records lagatar 1,424 din aur 7 records 371 din tak hold kiye the.
Sarah Sjostrom ne toh aur bhi zyada kiya — ek saath 8 world records hold kiye. August 3, 2017 ko unhone SC 100 freestyle ka record tod diya, aur us waqt unke paas LC 50 & 100 freestyle, 50 & 100 butterfly, aur SC 50, 100, 200 freestyle + 100 butterfly ke records the.
Ye streak 3 din chali jab tak Cate Campbell ne unka SC 100 free tod nahi diya.
Uske baad unhone 7 records 84 din aur 6 records 1,587 din tak hold kiye.
Ab Summer McIntosh bhi iss elite league ka hissa ban chuki hai. Aur dekh kar lagta hai ki aane wale dino mein wo aur bhi records ke kareeb jaa sakti hai — chahe wo short course ho ya long course.
200 aur 800 free, 200 butterfly (LC), aur 200 IM, 800 free (SC) — sab unke reach mein dikhte hain.
Kya wo Hosszu aur Sjostrom ke multiple world record streaks ko match karegi… ya phir unse bhi aage nikal jaayegi?
Aane wala waqt bataayega. Lekin ek baat pakki hai — Summer McIntosh ka naam swimming ke golden legends mein likha jaa chuka hai.
