## Resource

Mollie O’Callaghan narrowly missed the world record in the 200m freestyle but still smashed her own personal best at Australian Trials, locking in her spot for the Commonwealth Games. Though she trails Ariarne Titmus in the all-time rankings, O’Callaghan remains focused on her goal: her first Commonwealth gold in Glasgow. She’s already Olympic and world champion in this event and holds the rare feat of three swims under 1:52.3. Despite narrowly losing the world record to Titmus at the 2024 Trials, O’Callaghan says she doesn’t need her rival to push her—she’s self-motivated. At trials, she surged ahead of the record pace at 50m, admitting she’s still mastering race strategy and nerves, but remains confident even if she stumbles. Teammate Lani Pallister, who finished second with a PB of 1:53.65, praised O’Callaghan’s grit and is excited for the rest of the Games.
