In this episode, friend of the pod Cam McEvoy returns as the 50m freestyle Olympic Champion and reigning fastest man in the world.
The last time Cam McEvoy raced an individual Olympic final, he was the hot favorite to win the 100 freestyle following his then world textile best 47.04 from the 2016 Australian Olympics Trials. But in 2016, McEvoy’s speed from Trials did not make the trip to the Games, and he finished 7th in the 100 free and watched his teenage teammate Kyle Chalmers take home the gold medal.
Fast forward to Paris and a similar set of circumstances provided Cam McEvoy a shot at redemption - this time as a reborn pure sprinter with a new program focused entirely on top end speed for the 50 freestyle. Following his dominant World title in 2023, Cam arrived at the 2024 Olympics as the betting favorite for gold.
Consistent through the heats and semis, Cam was able to deliver the goods in the final with a narrow victory over Great Britain’s Ben Proud and finally stand alone atop the Olympic podium.
