Australian gold medal swimmer Ariarne Titmus recently expressed her admiration for American swimming legend Katie Ledecky after defeating her in a highly anticipated rematch from their memorable showdown at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Titmus, who emerged victorious in the race, humbly shared her thoughts on the experience, stating, 'I’m just happy to get the result for myself, and I’m so honored to be part of the race and be alongside legends like Katie. I look up to her so much as an athlete, and it is certainly not a rivalry beyond the races. I really respect her as a person and her longevity in the sport. It’s nice to catch up and have a chat.'
