Biografia

Kaylee McKeown first appeared on the Olympic stage at the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympics, where the swimmer won women's 50m backstroke gold, alongside silver in the 100m backstroke, and bronze in the 200m backstroke.

In the run up to the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, the Queenslander clocked a 57.45 to break the 100m backstroke world record.

She then backed up that performance at the Games, winning two individual gold medals in the 100m and 200m backstroke, and another gold as part of the all-star Australian women's 4x100m medley team that also featured Chelsea Hodges, Emma McKeon, and Cate Campbell.

McKeown is also a highly versatile athlete. In the run up to Tokyo 2020, she won the 200m individual medley at the Australian National Championships, but withdrew from the event in order to focus on the backstroke sprints.

However, she did enter into the event instead of the 100m backstroke at the 2022 World Championships, and landed the 200m IM silver with an impressive 2:08:57. Elsewhere at the event, the 2001-born star completed her medal collection with 200m backstroke gold.
