One particularly attractive rivalry will arrive in the women\u2019s backstroke events, where Australian <strong>Kaylee McKeown<\/strong> and the United States\u2019 <strong>Regan<\/strong> <strong>Smith<\/strong> are likely to battle for gold.<\/p>\n<p>Last summer, McKeown and Smith went gold-silver in each of the backstroke events at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/world-championships-leon-marchand-kaylee-mckeown-named-swimmers-of-the-meet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">World Championships in Fukuoka<\/a>. The previous year, Smith was the world champion in the 100 backstroke. Meanwhile, McKeown swept the backstroke events at the Olympic Games in Tokyo, with Smith earning bronze in the 100 back.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, Smith and McKeown exchanged sensational in-season performances in both the 100 backstroke and the 200 backstroke. While racing at the TYR Pro Series stop in Westmont, Illinois, Smith clocked 57.64 in the 100 backstroke and went 2:03.99 in the 200 back. A few days later, at the NSW State Championships, McKeown was timed in 57.57 in the 100 back and 2:04.21 in the 200 backstroke.<\/p>\n<p>To add a little more spice to the rivalry, the all-time backstroke lists are dominated by McKeown and Smith. Together, they own the top-12 times in the 100 backstroke, with McKeown owning eight marks. In the 200 backstroke, McKeown and Smith own 15 of the 17-fastest times ever recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Given their performances through the years, and their superb midseason marks, it wouldn\u2019t be a surprise if we see sub-57 and sub-2:03 efforts during the summer campaign.<\/p>\n<p><strong>100 Backstroke (All-Time Rankings)<\/strong><br \/>\nKaylee McKeown \u2013 57.33<br \/>\nMcKeown \u2013
