by Matthew De George
Becca Meyers, who is deaf and blind as a result of Usher syndrome, requires a personal care assistant (PCA) to complete her daily activities in and out of the pool while at the Paralympics. However, since COVID-19 restrictions have limited the presence of non-athletes at the Games—including her PCA (who is also her mother)—Meyers elected to withdraw from what would have been her third Paralympics. 041 | DAVID CURTISS, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF NEW NCAA NIL RULES, PARTNERS WITH SPEEDO
by Matthew De George
American sprinter David Curtiss has signed a sponsorship agreement with Speedo, one of the first collegiate swimmers to avail himself of new NCAA rules allowing athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness (NIL). 042 | THE 18-AND-UNDER SWIMMERS WHO COULD STEAL THE SHOW AT THE TOKYO OLYMPICS
by David Rieder
At every Olympics, young swimmers emerge from seemingly out of nowhere and put on amazing performances to win Olympic medals. This year’s Olympic Games shouldn’t be any different, as Swimming World spotlights 11 swimmers ages 18 and younger who currently rank among the top 10 in the world and could possibly make a breakthrough in Tokyo. 046 | PARTING SHOT
