Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> is poised to become the youngest female swimmer since Hayley Lewis<\/strong> to take out the coveted Olympic Program Swimmer of the Year at the 30th<\/sup> Anniversary of the Australian Swimmer of the Awards in Sydney on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Athletes, coaches, clubs and volunteers will converge on the Museum of Contemporary Art overlooking iconic Sydney Harbour.<\/p>\n

They will celebrate what has been a successful return to the international stage for the Dolphins, who won five gold, nine silver and five bronze medals for a total of 19 medals and two world records in snaring a rare 4x200m freestyle relay double at this year’s World Championships.<\/p>\n

Other major Awards will include the Paralympic Program Swimmer and the four categories for the Coaches of the year, \u2018Club of the Year\u2019 and \u2018Local Legend of the Year\u2019 as well as the Patron and prestigious Swimmers Swimmer of the Year Awards.<\/p>\n

Lewis was just 16 when she won World Championship gold in the 200m freestyle, silver in the 400m freestyle, silver in the 400m freestyle and bronze in the 200m butterfly to take out the 1991 Australian Swimmer of the Year.<\/p>\n

And some three decades later Australia\u2019s success in 2019 has been largely due to the rise of 19-year-old Titmus and her coach Dean Boxall,<\/strong> who are both set to scoop the pool.<\/p>\n

Tasmanian-born Queensland teenager Titmus, was 18 throughout her record-breaking year and has been nominated for two major awards \u2013 the Hancock Prospecting Olympic Program Swimmer of the Year and the 2018 Australian Short Course Swimmer of the Year.<\/p>\n

Boxall has been nominated for Hancock Prospecting Olympic Program Coach of the Year and the Youth Coach of the Year \u2013 an award he has won the past two years.<\/p>\n

It follows Titmus\u2019 record breaking achievements at both the FINA Long Course and FINA Short Course World Championships, which earlier tonight saw the girl born and raised in Launceston named the 2019 Tasmanian Athlete of the Year.<\/p>\n

Before her September 8th birthday, a then 18-year-old Titmus did the unthinkable, swimming over the top of the world\u2019s greatest ever women\u2019s freestyler, US golden girl, multiple Olympic and World Champion Katie Ledecky<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Titmus broke Ledecky\u2019s extraordinary seven-year unbeaten run over 400, 800 and 1500m freestyle to claim Australia\u2019s first gold of the Championships on a memorable opening night for the teen.<\/p>\n

The Dean Boxall-coached Titmus clocked a superb pb of 3:58.76 (27.52; 57.12; 1:57.72; 2:28.03; 2:58.45; 3.29.25) \u2013 a new Commonwealth, Oceania and Australian record \u2013 the second fastest swimmer over 400m in history.<\/p>\n

The Commonwealth champion from St Peters Western became the World Champion when she came home all over Ledecky after trailing her going into the final turn to become the new world champion \u2013 our first in the women\u2019s 400m freestyle since Tracey Wickham <\/strong>in Berlin in 1978.<\/p>\n

Titmus, who clocked the fastest final split of the night in 29.51 \u2013said after the race: \u201cI never thought I would be in a situation where I would be mowing Katie (Ledecky) down \u2013 she is such a champion \u2013 so I tried to make the most of it. I am happy that I got the job done, (but) I can still see room for improvement.”<\/p>\n

\u201cMy coach Dean Boxall said to me there were three outcomes; you could swim great, you could swim good, you could swim bad but you will still wake up tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

It was the highlight of a stellar 2018-2019 \u2013 becoming Australia\u2019s only individual gold medal at this year\u2019s FINA World Championships in Gwangju where she won two gold (400m freestyle and 4x200m freestyle relay), silver in the 200m freestyle and bronze in the 800m freestyle.<\/p>\n

Her season started in spectacular fashion at the FINA Short Course World\u2019s in Hangzhou last December when she set her first world record in the 400m freestyle 3:53.92) and added her second gold in the 200m freestyle (1:51 38 \u2013 a new Championship record) and bronze medals in the 4×50 and 4x200m freestyle relay.<\/p>\n
