Speedo has announced their deal with three-time Olympic Gold Medalist and 100 backstroke World Record holder Ryan Murphy.<\/strong>\u00a0The backstroker went\u00a0pro this month after\u00a0the\u00a0completion of his NCAA eligibility at the University of California-Berkeley.<\/p>\n

As a Golden Bear, Murphy added historic four-peats in both the 100 <\/a>and 200 backstroke<\/a> at the NCAA Championships to his resume. Next up, Murphy will compete at the upcoming USA Swimming 66 National Championships looking to earn a spot on the USA’s World Championships roster.<\/p>\n

He will be doing so with a new sponsor in Speedo. The company is confident in his ability to make an impact on the sport of swimming:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe would probably tell you it\u2019s more of a team effort, but we do see him as someone over the course of the next couple years being the face of swimming,\u201d Speedo president John Graham<\/strong> told Yahoo Sports<\/a>. \u201cHe can be that person.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Aside from his 6’3″ 205 pound “specimen” frame, Speedo said they also liked Murphy because of his low-risk behavior outside the pool. They said that in the era where incidents have happened involving Olympic swimmers over the past years, Murphy is more down-to-earth and did not let the Rio success go to his head.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, not too much has changed,\u201d Murphy said. \u201cThe biggest thing is that more young kids want my autograph or want a picture, which is awesome. I love that. But otherwise it\u2019s been the same \u2013 wanting to improve, looking for ways to get better, wanting to build on last year.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The authenticity of Ryan Murphy is exactly what the company was looking for. Graham said he is grounded and stays true to his values, that he “follows the North Star.” He said this is what\u00a0marketers look for.<\/p>\n

While becoming the new face of swimming may be a lot of pressure for any swimmer in a post-Phelps era, Murphy has proved that he can succeed under pressure. The future of USA men’s swimming is up for grabs, and Speedo believes Murphy is the man for the job.<\/p>\n
