Canadian swimmer and Olympic medallist Summer McIntosh is set to compete in five events at the upcoming World Championships in Singapore. McIntosh recently made history at the Canadian trials by breaking world records in three individual events, a feat last accomplished by Michael Phelps in 2008.

Her achievements have drawn comparisons to swimming greats such as Phelps and Katie Ledecky, though former record holder Anna Mae Pierce notes that McIntosh is forging her own legacy. The young athlete has inspired a new generation of Canadian swimmers and is aiming for as many gold medals as possible at the championships.
