Canadian Summer McIntosh is many things: a talented swimmer, a multi-time record holder, and now, a world champion at just age 15. Competing in the women’s 200m butterfly event on Thursday at the 2022 FINA World Aquatics Championships in Budapest, Hungary, McIntosh paced the field and came out on top with a time of 2:05.20. I’m really happy with my result,” McIntosh told CBC following the race, per Devin Heroux. USA’s Hali Flickinger won silver, while Olympic champion Yufei Zhang from China took home the bronze. The Toronto-born McIntosh, who broke onto the scene last summer in her first Summer Olympics, also won the silver medal in the 400m freestyle event earlier in the championships.
