Australian Olympic gold medallist Madi Wilson has announced her retirement from swimming. The 30-year-old confirmed her decision this week, just five months after giving birth to her first child. Wilson has been a mainstay in Australia’s relay events for the past decade. She was a member of the gold medal-winning 4x100m freestyle teams in Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
“Thank you to everyone who had an impact on my career, you made me the woman I am today.” Wilson added that the friendships she made along the way are what she will remember the most. “It’s so overwhelming to look back on my swimming career but it’s the friendships I made that I am most proud of. I thought I would come back and compete after Aussie was born and while it’s hard to co-ordinate sporting schedules with Matt, it’s more I don’t want to miss anything,” Wilson said.
