Hold your goggles, swim fans! 🌊 American phenom Gretchen Walsh became an overnight aquatic legend at the World Short-Course Swimming Championships in Budapest, rewriting history three times in 24 hours. Talk about a mic drop moment! 🎤
The 21-year-old first crushed the women’s 100m butterfly world record during morning heats (53.24s), only to break her own new record hours later in the semifinals (52.87s). But wait – 26 minutes after that? She torpedoed through the 100m individual medley final in 55.11 seconds. 🏊♀️💨
Not to be outdone, teammates Kate Douglass (200m breaststroke, 2:12.50) and Regan Smith (50m backstroke, 25.23s) added two more world records to Team USA’s dominance. Budapest’s pool might need new timing systems after this! ⚡
