While she’s known for being one of the faces of sports news, her background is every bit as decorated as the athletes she talks about on TV. She first made her international swimming debut for Australia at the 1998 Commonwealth Games at 15, where she won the gold medal in the 100-m backstroke.

A career of accolades quickly followed: silver medalist in the 2000 Sydney Olympics, 2001 world champion in the 200-metre freestyle at Fukuoka World Swimming Championships in Japan, finally retiring after getting a silver in the 2006 Commonwealth Games. After that, she moved on to cement her place as an incredible sports reporter.
