We watched with bated breath, as Ariarne Titmus touched the wall ahead of Katie Ledecky - considered by some to be the greatest female swimmer of all time, but it was far from luck on the day that cemented Ariarne’s name in the history books.
From early on in her life, Arnie had learnt the relationship between hard work and success, a value instilled by her parents that helped forge her path to becoming one of Australia's greatest swimmers.
Paired with her coach, Dean Boxall, their unique relationship built on brutal honesty, shared standards, and unwavering trust, has been the ‘key’ in unlocking the fierce competitor.
Beyond the glory is humility, a love for family, and a passion which extends past chasing the black line.
Now on a hiatus from swimming, she shares what’s next for her, and if she will be repping the green and gold in LA in 2028.
