Who Will Be the Next Sub-52 Performer in the Women’s 100 Freestyle? The Contenders Are Lined Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only two women have ever cracked the 52-second barrier in the 100-meter freestyle. While Swedish superstar Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong> first accomplished the feat at the 2017 World Championships, where she clocked a world record of 51.71, Emma McKeon<\/strong> joined the club at the 2020 Olympic Games. In Tokyo, McKeon registered a gold-medal performance of 51.96, the effort one of seven medals for the Australian.<\/p>\n

Will we see the next sub-52 marker this summer?<\/p>\n

Several athletes could make a run at a 51-point showing in the coming months, the Commonwealth Games, European Championships and Pan Pacific Championships all prospective sites. Among the contenders is Dutchwoman Marrit<\/strong> Steenbergen<\/strong>, the back-to-back world champion in the 100 freestyle. Steenbergen owns a personal best of 52.26, posted at the 2024 World Champs, and the 26-year-old ripped a 51.64 anchor leg on the Netherlands’ 400 freestyle relay at last year’s Worlds.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Aussie Mollie O’Callaghan<\/strong> might be best known for her prowess in the 200 freestyle, but she is a two-time world champion in the 100 freestyle (2022\/2023) and is the No. 7 performer in history with a best mark of 52.08. O’Callaghan is expected to compete at both the Commonwealth Games and Pan Pacs during the summer, so she’ll have multiple opportunities to push the 52-second barrier.<\/p>\n

During 2023 World Cup action, Hong Kong’s Siobhan Haughey<\/strong> just missed a 51-point performance, as she clocked 52.02 in Berlin. Although that time in three years old, Haughey has looked strong during 2026, going 52.77 in the 100 free and 1:54.85 in the 200 free in February. Those early-season outings serve as positive signs for the multi-time Olympic medalist.<\/p>\n

On the American front, Torri Huske<\/strong> has been the steadiest performer in the 100 freestyle over the past two years, going 52.29 at the 2024 Olympic Games and registering a best of 52.43 in 2025. Huske has consistently improved in the 100 freestyle and a drop this summer could put her in the mix for a sub-52 time at Pan Pacs. Could Kate Douglass<\/strong> make a run as well? What about rising star Rylee Erisman<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

The contenders for the next 51.xx performance are plentiful. Let’s see who can put together the ideal race to visit this unique territory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
