\u201cOther parts of my life are asking for my time and attention. This week I am leaving elite level swimming. This is not letting go of a dream; it\u2019s having the ambition to start a new one! While it is sad to see this chapter of my life coming to a close, I do it with a full heart,\u201d said Vollmer.<\/p>\n

At just twelve years of age, Dana Vollmer began her quest for Olympic success as the youngest swimmer to compete in the 2000 Olympic trials. Today, the butterfly specialist is a 5x Olympic gold medalist, and has broken and set world records at the games in both Athens and London. Dana is the first woman in history to ever swim the 100m butterfly in under 56 seconds<\/a>, which still stands as the fastest time ever recorded by an American. She made her most recent Olympic appearance in Rio de Janeiro after having her first child, and is affectionately known today as the “Momma on a Mission.”<\/a> In addition to earning seven Olympic medals, she has also earned sixteen world championship medals over the course of her career.<\/p>\n

\u201cDana has left an incredible legacy on the sport of swimming, and we will always be proud to call her part of the TYR family,\u201d said Matt DiLorenzo<\/strong>, CEO of TYR Sport. \u201cWe look forward to supporting Dana in the next phase of her career, and congratulate her on all her remarkable
\nachievements.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans will have a final chance to see Vollmer race the 100 butterfly at Stanford\u2019s Avery Aquatic Center on Friday, August 2nd at the 2019 U.S. National Championships<\/a>, where she will also be signing autographs.
