Susie O\u2019Neill<\/strong><\/p>\n

After O\u2019Neill had won 200m butterfly bronze at the \u201892 Barcelona Olympics four years before her triumphant Olympic gold in Atlanta in \u201996, American Mary T Meagher\u2019<\/strong>s world mark became O\u2019Neill\u2019s the prime target in the lead up to Sydney 2000.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember there being an amazing atmosphere at the Sydney pool that night\u2026.and then touching and seeing that I had broken it\u2026it was just like relief, and you know I felt like I was always going to break that record,\u201d O\u2019Neill recalled.<\/p>\n

\u201cI woke up thinking this would be my last chance to break it. I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d do it at the Olympics, you know with all the pressure and everything.<\/p>\n

\u201cArriving at the pool and the crowd was just amazing, you just took that for granted back then\u2026and just how many people (12,000) were there and what a big deal it was.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I touched the wall, retrospectively I never felt any pain, but you never know whether you feel the pain in the race or not; it usually just depends on the result I\u2019ve found previously\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the crowd it was kind of like being a rock star I imagine. Not that I was a rock star but with the crowd we more or less took it for granted given subsequent years.\u201d<\/p>\n

But there were mixed emotions for O\u2019Neill when the Sydney Games rolled around \u2013 winning gold in the 200m freestyle but relinquishing her ownership of the 200m butterfly to American Misty Hyman<\/strong> the following night \u2013 a defeat O\u2019Neill didn\u2019t deal with until the 2010 anniversary of the Sydney Games.<\/p>\n

Admitting that she was supposed to win the 200m butterfly and not the 200m freestyle \u2013 the event synonymous with her nickname \u201cMadam Butterfly\u201d \u2013 adopted from her hero the legendary Mary T Meagher.<\/strong><\/p>\n

O\u2019Neill was a backstroker in her formative age group career in the mid 80s under respected coach Bernie Wakefield<\/strong> at Acacia, the man who set O\u2019Neill up for her spectacular career \u2013 before launching her international career in butterfly and freestyle at the \u201989 Pan Pacs with Scott Volkers<\/strong> steering her to Games and world record glory.<\/p>\n

WORLD BEATER: Lorraine Crapp. Photo Courtesy Lorraine Crapp Private Collection<\/p><\/div>\n

Lorraine Crapp<\/strong> was the first woman in the world to break five minutes for 400m freestyle and at her home 1956 Olympic Games in Melbourne, she won two golds, a silver, and a bronze medal, adding another silver at Rome in 1960.<\/p>\n

With 23 world records, she was regarded as the first great swimmer of the modern era of Australian swimming who burst into prominence in 1954 with her 11-minute 880 yards, and heralded the coming of a new wave of Aussie world record swimmers to dominate the Melbourne Olympics<\/a>.\u00a0 In 1954 at 15 she won two gold medals at the Vancouver British Commonwealth and Empire Games, adding silver and bronze Empire medals in 1958.<\/p>\n

At one time, Lorraine Crapp held all recognized long-course world records in freestyle, from 100m to the half-mile.<\/p>\n

Her greatest period of swimming achievement has to be the period just prior to the 1956 Olympics when she broke eighteen world records during training.<\/p>\n

In one afternoon, Oct. 20, 1956, Lorraine broke six world records.\u00a0 This was the second time in her career that she set four world records in one race by establishing the zoom, 220 yds., and 400m freestyle records on her way to a world busting 440 yd. record.\u00a0 By the end of 1956, she held world records for 100 yards, 200 meters, 400 meters, 440 yards, 800 meters, and 880 yards.<\/p>\n

Her swimming career lasted 10 years, from 1950 to 1960, from her humble beginnings as a schoolgirl on the NSW south coast to her move to Mortlake and Cabarita Swimming Club in Sydney\u2019s inner west and the influence of one of Australia\u2019s greatest coaches in Frank Guthrie \u2013 and her own golden career.<\/p>\n

Lorraine did it all in a career spanning two Commonwealth Games and two Olympics and in Sydney 2000 she joined fellow swimming greats and fellow inductee the late Murray Rose<\/strong> and Mike Wenden<\/strong> along with the late Bill Roycroft<\/strong> (equestrian), Liane Tooth<\/strong> (hockey), the late Gillian Rolton<\/strong> (equestrian), Marjorie Jackson (athletics) and Nick Green (rowing) to carry the Olympic flag into the Olympic main stadium top the roar of over 100,000 people \u2013 44 years after her home Games debut in Melbourne.<\/p>\n

Just one of many fitting rewards for a woman, choosing for so many years to live the quiet life out of the public eye, as she battled a rare genetic disorder Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) that can cause poor coordination of hands, speech, and eye movements, just celebrating her 85th<\/sup> birthday on the NSW North Coast.<\/p>\n

But despite that, she remains one of the true legends from an era when Australia reigned the lanes \u2013 when swimmers and their coaches were ahead of the times and the opposition.<\/p>\n

And by 1956 the girl who grew up on the shores of Jervis Bay, had broken no less than 17 world records and by the end of the Olympic year she was not only a two-time Olympic champion but was the world record holder for 110 yards, 200m, 400m and 880 yards – the first Australian swimmer, male or female, to hold world records in all freestyle distances at the same time.<\/p>\n

Lorraine actually set her own first ever world record in the 880 yards freestyle on July 2, 1954, on a training camp in Townsville (QLD) as she prepared for the Vancouver Commonwealth Games \u2013 at just 15 years of age \u2013 smashing a mark that had been held by 1948 Olympic champion over 400 metres freestyle, American Ann Curtis since 1944 \u2013 beating the time by some eight seconds.<\/p>\n

And then on to the 1956 Olympic Games in Melbourne where Crapp became the Olympic champion in the 400m freestyle in 4:54.6 beating Dawn Fraser<\/strong> 5:02.5 and Sylvia Ruuska<\/strong> (USA) 5:07.1 before combing with Fraser, Faith Leech and Sandra Morgan to win gold in the 4x100m freestyle.<\/p>\n

The Aussie girls, Fraser (1:02.0) Crapp (1:02.3) and Leech (1:05.1) had also clean swept the 100m freestyle final \u2013 the first time since the USA girls in 1920 and 1924 and the first Aussie gold since the inaugural women\u2019s event won by Fanny Durack<\/strong> with Mina Wylie<\/strong> second in 1912.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cYou probably couldn\u2019t have set it up any better could you, the experience of going into the Olympic Games after the Commonwealth Games\u2026a home Games is, any athlete will tell you the same thing and this is why when you get Olympics or the home country always does so well because the athletes are motivated to perform, do well,\u201d Crapp recalled in an interview with this author.<\/p>\n

FOR THE RECORD:\u00a0 <\/strong>OLYMPIC GAMES: <\/strong>Melbourne 1956<\/strong> gold (400m freestyle; 4x100m freestyle relay), silver (100m freestyle);Rome 1960<\/strong> silver (4x100m freestyle relay); WORLD RECORDS:<\/strong> 23 (110yd, 200m, 400m, 440yd, 800m, 880yd freestyle).<\/p>\n

ROSE BOWL: Then great Murray Rose at home in the pool. Photo Courtesy News Ltd.<\/p><\/div>\n

The late great Murray Rose<\/strong>\u00a0became the youngest triple gold Olympic medallist in history at the 1956 Games in Melbourne where he won the 400 and 1500m freestyle events and was a member of the winning 4x200m freestyle relay team, at just 17.<\/p>\n

Rose made history again in Rome at the 1960 Olympics by becoming the first man ever to win a distance event, the 400m freestyle, in two successive Games \u2013 a feat emulated by fellow Australia great Ian Thorpe in 2000 and 2004.<\/p>\n

He was a world record holder for nine years in swimming, who at the time was regarded as the world\u2019s greatest swimmer, holding world records over 880 yards, 800m, 440 yards, 400m, 200m, 1500m and 1650 yards.<\/p>\n

On the evening of December 7 in 1956, millions of people around the world listened to the 1500m final on their radios. People in Australia watched outside shop windows that had black and white television sets. The sell-out crowd inside the new, Melbourne Olympic Pool cheered itself hoarse as the American swimmer George Breen led Japan\u2019s Tsuyoshi Yamanaka for most of the way\u2026but there\u2026in lane five was the \u201cSeaweed Streak\u201d making waves\u2026400m from home Rose surged and opened up a four-metre lead and went on to win the gold medal.<\/p>\n

Rose was everything Australian sport stood for. He was humble, hardworking, with the looks to match\u2026tall, blonde, and handsome. A champion swimmer, a Hollywood movie star and a cover boy in Sydney and California where he went to school at the University of Southern California (USC).<\/p>\n

Rose had dominated the headlines, for his amazing ability in the pool and his vegetarian diet \u2013 a perfect recipe for stardom.<\/p>\n

Australians had witnessed the 17-year-old Rose swim his way into immortality with three gold medals in the 400m, the 1500m and the 4x200m freestyle relay at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics.<\/p>\n

A star was born and a boy, who had come to Australia with his parents from England in 1940 was about to transcend anything that had happened in the pool before.<\/p>\n

There was a fourth gold medal in the defence of his 400m in Rome four years later again defeating great friend, rival and fellow USC student, Japan\u2019s Yamanaka.<\/p>\n

A victory that his 1956 and 1960 teammate, the late John Devitt<\/strong> had regarded as the greatest Olympic victory he had witness until Ian Thorpe\u2019s final relay leg in the 4x100m freestyle in Sydney.<\/p>\n

\u201cSitting in the grandstand in Rome and witnessing Murray\u2019s performance that night was without doubt the greatest individual Olympic victory I have ever seen,\u201d recalled Devitt, who held Rose in the highest regard.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe and Yamanaka lining up again four years after Melbourne with Rose sitting back comfortably in the first 200 metres, trailing Yamanaka and with one of the finest fields ever assembled pushing hard for a medal.<\/p>\n

\u2018Rose was the master. He knew his opposition. He knew Yamanaka and he waited until he knew it was the right time to strike over the final 100 metres before swimming away with the victory \u2013 by exactly the same three second margin that he won the gold four years earlier.\u201d<\/p>\n

So much was written about his seaweed and sunflower seed diet, about his amazing mum who travelled the world to ensure Murray was getting the balanced diet that had dominated headlines around the world.<\/p>\n

But Murray Rose will be remembered for more than his ability to swim and his extraordinary record-breaking feats\u2026one of eight Olympians chosen by AOC president John Coates to carry the Olympic flag into the Sydney Olympic Stadium during the 2000 Opening Ceremony.<\/p>\n

Coates said Rose was an understated perfectionist, a perfect communicator who never seemed to raise his voice. A person whose decency, dignity and generosity of spirit inspired contemporaries and subsequent champions such as Kieren Perkins<\/strong> and Ian Thorpe.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Throughout his career and his life; through his generosity of spirit, his sense of fair play, his modesty, his dignity, his respect for his opposition, his innate sense of decency, his attitude to life. Murray Rose embodied all the values and the virtues that the Olympic movement treasures.\u201d<\/p>\n

On April 15, 2012, Australia not only lost one of its greatest swimmers, a man who stood tall for Australia both in and out of the pool but a man who will long be remembered as a role model for all Australians and a fitting inductee into the Swimming Australia Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

FOR THE RECORD:\u00a0 <\/strong>OLYMPIC GAMES<\/strong>:Melbourne<\/strong> 1956: <\/strong>\u00a0Gold (400m, 1500m freestyle; 4x200m freestyle relay); Rome 1960<\/strong>: Gold (400m freestyle), silver (1500m freestyle), bronze (4x200m freestyle relay); WORLD RECORDS:<\/strong> 200m, 400m, 440yd, 800m, 880yd, 1500m, 1650yd.<\/p>\n
