You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • Bill Sweetenham's Way Reaps Rewards for GB Team in Beijing - Olympic
    Bill Sweetenham's way reaps rewards for GB team in Beijing - Olympic... 19/08/2008 11:46 PM Telegraph accessibility links Skip to article Skip to Telegraph main navigation Website of the Telegraph Media Group with breaking news, sport, business, latest UK a Bill Sweetenham's way reaps rewards for GB team in Beijing Halting the terminal decline of British swimming has been like turning the QE2. Progress has been possible only after the entire shambles was brought to a halt and then restarted and pointed in the right direction. By Brendan Gallagher Last Updated: 1:35AM BST 12 Aug 2008 Australian coaching legend Bill Sweetenham was appointed after the Sydney Olympics when Great Britain failed to win a single medal, and cracked the whip with typical Australian vigour. He stood down last November, but his work and approach are beginning to bear fruit. Sweetenham instilled a professionalism which, with the exception of a small number of self-motivated individuals, was largely alien to the British system. From now on swimming was to be a 'career’ choice, not an excuse to avoid Fruit bearer: GB swimming was in rapid decline before Bill Sweetenham tightened the ship Photo: getting a job. Frank Coppi He instigated a cadre of expert coaches and a year-round training camp in Queensland, with emphasis on the future. He also stamped out the 'party’ culture. Predictably it did not make him very popular with some, but he persisted and slowly the results have improved. The Athens Olympics were disappointing but since then the new generation have emerged, the green shoots of recovery being visible at the 2006 Commonwealth Games.

Our swimmers did not perform up to expectations in the 2012 Olympic Games in London and a rigorous review is in progress as this report goes to print. Though there was notable progress in a number of areas – for example the number of British Swimming finalists, we fell short of our medal target, with a number of medal prospects failing to deliver their season’s best performance when it mattered.

  • Victor Davis
    SPORTING LEGENDS: VICTOR DAVIS SPORT: SWIMMING COMPETITIVE ERA: 1980 - 1989 Victor Davis was a Canadian Olympic and World champion swimmer. As a boy, Davis learned how to swim in the lakes in the area around his home, then joined the Guelph Marlin Aquatic Club at the age of 12. A dedicated sportsman, he had a fierce passion to win that saw him become one of Canada's most prominent international swimming stars… As of 2009, Davis is still the most succcesful breaststroke swimmer Canada has ever produced. Though his Canadian National Records have now been surpassed by the likes of Morgan Knabe and Michael Brown - the new generation of Canadian male breastrokers are still yet to match his Gold Medal achievements. In recognition of his accomplishments, Victor Davis was named Swimming Canada's Athlete of the Year three times - and the Canadian government made him a member of the Order of Canada. He was also voted into Canada’s Sports Hall Of Fame in 1990. Victor Davis (February 10, 1964 – November 13, 1989) A True Champion … SPORTING LEGENDS: VICTOR DAVIS CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: During his career, Davis held several world records as the winner of 29 national titles and 16 medals in international competition. 1982 World Championships – Guayaquil, Ecuador Gold Medal – 200m Breaststroke (sets World Record at 2:14.77 secs) Silver Medal – 100m Breaststroke 1982 Commonwealth Games – Brisbane, Australia Gold Medal – 200m Breaststroke Gold Medal – 4 x 100m Medley Relay Silver Medal – 100m Breaststroke 1984 Olympics – Los Angeles, United States Gold Medal – 200m Breaststroke (sets World Record at 2:13.34 secs) Silver Medal – 100m Breaststroke Silver Medal – 4x100m Medley Relay Victor Davis was arguably the world’s best Breastroke swimmer of the 1980’s.
