Australian Kaylee McKeown Broke the 50-meter Backstroke WR

Australian Kaylee McKeown broke the 50-meter backstroke WR. As a result, she became the first individual to hold the world records in the 50-meter, 100-meter, and 200-meter backstroke simultaneously.

McKeown finished with 26.86 seconds in the Duna Arena at the World Cup event in Budapest, Hungary. As a result, she beat the previous record of 26.98 seconds set by China’s Liu Xiang in 2018. The world record is the 22-year-old’s third of the year and completes a hat trick of backstroke records for McKeown.

According to pay per head sportsbook reports, McKeown is the first Australian to hold the 50m backstroke world record since Sophie Edington set it in 2008.

It helps McKeown overcome the sadness of missing out on the world record in the 50-meter backstroke by only 0.04 seconds last week in Athens.

The Aussie’s season is soaring with every performance, propelling her towards greatness. According to sports news reports, McKeown won backstroke gold at all three lengths in the 2023 World Swimming Championships in Fukuoka, Japan.

McKeown is the current 100- and 200-meter Olympic champion. Thus, she will enter the upcoming Olympics in Paris as a heavy favorite to win gold in all three events. In 1997, the International Federation of Swimming (FINA) began recording performances in the 50-meter distance.
