Shayna Jack secured her spot for an individual swim in the Paris Olympics, denying Emma McKeon a chance to defend her 100m freestyle title, marking a significant redemption after a 24-month doping ban. Jack was overcome with emotion and expressed gratitude towards her supporters, including mentor Cate Campbell.

Thorpe reassured fans he is okay and praised the Australian swimming team's strong performance in the Olympic trials, highlighting world-record performances by Ariarne Titmus and Mollie O'Callaghan. Despite his injury, Thorpe remains optimistic about the team's prospects for the upcoming Olympics.
