Ryan Lochte Welcomes 3rd Child; Competes in Televised Cornhole Competition

American swimmer Ryan Lochte and his wife Kayla (Reid) Lochte welcomed their 3rd child together this week. A daughter, Georgia June Lochte, was born on June 21, 2023 and weighed 8 pounds according to an Instagram post by her parents.

The Lochtes have two other children, Caiden Zane Lochte (born June 8, 2017) and Liv Rae Lochte (born June 17, 2019). All three of their children were born in June; Caiden and Liv are both Gemini under the zodiac, while Georgia is a Gemini or a Cancer, depending on the chart being used.

Ryan Lochte, meanwhile, competed in a celebrity competition at the American Cornhole League event this weekend in Ramsey, Minnesota. There, he paired with Cornhole pro Jay Dotson.

  • Alexander Mattison & Noah Almanza
  • Kyle Cooke & Josh Thielen
  • Ryan Lochte & Jay Dotson
  • Scott Porter & Ryan Windsor

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison and his pro partner Noah Almanza won the tournament.

Lochte and Dotson lost to Josh Thielen and Kyle Cooke 13-5 in the first round before Thielen and Cooke lost to Mattison and Almanza 19-6 in the final.

Mattison and Almanza beat Windsor and Porter in the other preliminary matchup.

Lochte, known for his fashion sense, wore special limited edition hat and shoes for the event via a partnership with Riddick.

The tournament aired live on Friday on ESPN2, which shows that, outside of the Olympics, swimmers continue to have a bigger appeal to television producers *doing things other than swimming*.

Lochte last raced at the 2021 US Olympic Trials, though he has not officially announced his retirement from competitive swimming.

Phelps also has three

Is this how they are competing now—most progeny?

Could be good for swimming in the long run

“though he has not officially announced his retirement from competitive swimming”
Perhaps NOW is the time to bow out officially. . . . it would be the graceful way to exit the stage of competitive swimming and is frankly overdue, IMHO.
I mean, three kids and a wife are a great reason to move on from the work of a professional athlete, esp. in a sport that is so demanding. Now’s the time to move toward something that is “aquatic” but not racing.

3 kids and a wife, a great reason to try to hold onto the insurance as long a possible. Not really sure why it bothers you so much.

Are the zodiac signs of his children really article-worthy?

I was sort of waiting for a punchline. I guess he’s serious.

Everyone out here talking about Lochte and I’m only thinking about how Mattison being good at cornhole is going to affect his fantasy football draft stock

So Stanford has been waiting until after his child birth and cornhole obligations have been completed before they announce him as associate head coach?
