Men's 4x100 meter freestyle relay at the 2000 Summer Olympics was held on September 16, 2000 at the Sydney International Aquatic Centre in Sydney, Australia. The Australians won an Olympic gold medal for the first time in 36 years, and they did it in front of their delirious home fans. Australians Michael Klim (48.18), Chris Fydler (48.48), and Ashley Callus (48.74) won the gold medal in a time of 3:13.67 thanks to Ian Thorpe's anchor leg of 48.30, after he had lost the lead to Gary Hall, Jr. of the United States at the 350-meter mark. By setting the pace early in the race, Klim was able to beat the previous world record set by his Russian training partner Alexander Popov in 1994 by 0.03 seconds. Hall wrote on his blog before the 4 x 100 meter freestyle relay, " "It is my unreliable opinion that we will decimate the Australian 4x100m relay team like a band of guitars. The United States has always performed admirably under pressure. This time, however, the logic in my far-flung head tells me that the United States won't have it so simple to dominate the oceans." After the race, in response to Hall's comments, the Australians air-guitared on the pool deck. Hall commented on the race's significance, saying, "I can't even play the guitar correctly... As far as relay races go, that was the best one I've ever participated in. My hat is out to the legendary Ian Thorpe. Finishing stronger than I did, he beat me." Michael Klim, one of the Australians on the winning 4x100 relay team, remembered that "First to come over and offer his congratulations was swimmer Hall. His rough treatment of others did not make him any less of a sportsman ". Hall (48.24), Anthony Ervin (48.89), Neil Walker (48.31), and Jason Lezak (48.42) of Team USA finished in second place, 1.25 seconds behind the Australians' world record time from five years ago, but still set a new American record with a time of 3:13.86. At the same time, the Brazilian relay team of Fernando Scherer (49.79), Gustavo Borges (48.61), Carlos Jayme (49.88), and Edvaldo Silva Filho (49.12) won bronze with a time of 3 minutes, 17 seconds, and 40 seconds. While the rest of the championship field included the likes of Germany (3:17.77), Italy (3:17.85), Sweden (3:19.60), and France (3:21.00), Popov's Russia was disqualified due to an early relay launch from Andrey Kapralov on the lead-off leg. The Dutch team, without Pieter van den Hoogenband in the morning preliminary heats, nonetheless managed to set the fastest time with a 3:18.32, but they were eliminated from the final race after Dennis Rijnbeek made an illegal early jump during the second exchange.

Anthony Ervin, the oldest individual Olympic gold medalist in swimming history, is savoring his last run-up to U.S. Olympic Trials. At 40 years old, his experience is unique, and, personally, very meaningful. He laughed at my 50m free prediction game video, but he appreciated that I forecasted him under 22 seconds. Anthony isn't sure he'll be under 22 seconds at U.S. Olympic Trials, but he did share that he's feeling moments of that familiar-sprint-flow in training with Coach David Marsh. I asked Anthony to come on the SwimSwam Podcast to discuss the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) Rule 50 recommendations, which were recently released. It is the hot-button issue right now---centered around Olympic Podium Protests. In a respectful way as an Olympic statesman, Anthony publicly pushed back a bit on his Instagram account. He felt the need to make his voice heard. Anthony unpacks his thoughts in detail on this topic.

Anthony Ervin, the oldest individual Olympic gold medalist in swimming history, emerged at the Mission Pro Swim. Honestly, I wasn't sure if he had retired or not, but I was not surprised to see him in action. We all know Anthony's different, following the warrior poet's path, racing for a higher purpose. Now, rolling into 40 years old, his age at U.S. Olympic Trials, he has confirmed he's going for it. Will he make the 2021 U.S. Olympic Team at 40? I would love to witness that, but I don't think it's in the cards...and I'm not sure Anthony is judging his success this summer that way either. Anthony's already the oldest individual Olympic gold medalist, and I think he's enjoying his elder statesman status. I believe him when he says he wants to be on deck to pass the torch to the next generation of U.S. sprinters. However, you'd be foolish to dismiss his dangerous sprint gear. When Anthony's flowing with the right rhyme, he's fast. Muscle memory could put him over the edge.
In this episode of The End of Sport Johanna is joined by Drs. Christienna D. Fryar and Matt Hodler to break down the white supremacist terrorist actions of swimmer Klete Keller in the January 6th attack against the US Capitol building and the white sport media's apologist portrayal of him. Dr. Fryar is a Lecturer in Black British History at Goldsmiths, University of London where she teaches about British colonial history, Black history, and much more, alongside researching the histories of disaster and sport. Dr. Hodler –a repeat guest on the show! - is an Assistant Professor of Sports Media & Communications at the University of Rhode Island. His research interests include racialized nationalism, gender, and international sport structures, mediated representations of sport, internet memes, and swimming. Both of them are fellow swimmers with Johanna. The impetus for this episode emerged not only due to Klete Keller's horrendous actions, but also due to the sport media and swimming community's largely apologist portrayals of Keller and his actions. Our discussion brings a much-needed critique on Keller that has been mostly absent from the media pieces about him (outside of The Nation's analysis of Keller within the IOC's history of racism). Drs. Fryar and Hodler first help Johanna situate Keller's actions within the sport of swimming, arguing against the popular and comforting idea that his behavior is a deviation from the swimming community's values posited by The Washington Post, The New York Times, and Swimming World in particular. Their discussion articulates why modern swimming has a whiteness problem that historically and currently is centered on the white community, making Keller's actions a product of US swimming, and explicitly not an aberration of it nor of Trump's followers. Importantly, Dr. Fryar explains how – like point that Dr. Kevin Dawson made in our episode with him and that other scholars have shown – white Euro-Americans have consistently made bodies of water a site of intense trauma and pain for Black swimmers, which has led directly to horrendous drowning statistics. Our ensuing discussing shows how US swimming's white supremacy is a real public health concern that Keller contributed to through his white terrorism. We then turn to analyzing the media's white apologist portrayals of Keller, such as why their focus on his mental health issues, homelessness, and his white teammates and coaches' sympathetic responses is a white tactic not actually aimed at highlighting mental health issues; rather, it is an intentional attempt to individualize Keller's actions rather than tackle the core issue of his racism, terrorism, and where it fits within the swimming community. This is clear when we compare how Keller, Ryan Lochte, and Michael Phelps have been treated for their crimes with white gloves compared to Tamir Rice and the countless other Black boys and men who have been murdered by the police for far less and even non-criminal behaviors. Dr. Fryar points to the issue that sports journalists are not trained to analyze racism, classism, and other issues as evidenced by her students' research about how the Hillsborough incident was covered by the sports media. We end the conversation by dissecting the appallingly inadequate – but perhaps not surprising – statements made by USA Swimming and to a lesser extent Team USA. We question the ‘values' that USA Swimming supposedly stands for, and what their silence regarding Keller's white supremacy means for the sport and Black swimmers. Dr. Hodler mentions the Swimmers for Change episode with Lia Neal, Cullen Jones, and Anthony Ervin as being one of the first comprehensive spotlights on the racist discrimination that swimmers of color face in the sport. This conversation is very much a continuation of our Swimming Week series of episodes from September 2020. Check them out if you would like to hear more about the sport's discriminatory foundation, such as its white supremacy with Dr. Kevin Dawson here and Dr. Hodler here! More on Dr. Fryar (including her forthcoming book!), can be found here. You can find her on Twitter too! Check out the 2 pieces she mentioned in the episode, about the economic barriers that she and countless others faced in trying to join a club swim team for The Toast, and also for Media Diversified about why we need to address the racist stereotype that Black people cannot swim in light of Simone Manual's gold medal at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.

Anthony (Tony) Ervin is an Olympic Swimmer, writer, and tattoo enthusiast. I first swam against Tony in a dual meet between Arizona and Cal. Ervin won. Ervin is a seven-time NCAA National Champion, 4 x Olympic medalist, and former world record holder. In the 2000 Sydney Olympics, he tied Gary Hall Jr (his training partner) to win Olympic Gold in the 50m Free. After Ervin competed in the Olympics, he renounced swimming and gave away his medal. He started sweeping the floors in a tattoo shop, racing motorcycles and he joined a band. He was chasing something, and it wasn't in the pool. Our paths crossed in New York City, when he taught swimming lessons at the same swim school where my 18-month-old was taking lessons. Then, I heard through the grapevine he was making a comeback. This interview took place months before the Rio Olympics and Olympic Trials. Not only did Ervin qualify (as the oldest swimmer on the team) he won Olympic Gold, again. I've often wondered what makes Ervin so fast, despite being a foot smaller than the rest of his competition. If you watch him, he slices through the water, while the other swimmers (including myself) fight it. In this episode, we talk about his approach to mental training, what it takes to win, and what it feels like to compete in the Olympics.
To celebrate our first incredible year, we have put together highlights from some of our most downloaded interviews of the year. We have an absolute stellar line-up including Simone Biles, John Orozco, Anthony Ervin, Brian Orser and Yuzuru Hanyu.

Swimmer Anthony Ervin won Olympic gold aged 19. His life then fell apart. He was homeless for a time, attempted suicide, and drank heavily. By 2016, he had completely turned his life around and won the 50m freestyle at the Olympics.Aged 35, he was the oldest individual Olympic gold medal winner in swimming.This time though - he was ready.“Winning can be a terrible thing that happens to you. It can completely intoxicate you… Winning is a test.”We spoke about Ryan Lochte, growing up with Tourette’s, and how he wants to compete at Tokyo 2020.LINKS:Anthony winning gold in RioAnthony's bookThe other book he recommendedAndre Agassi's bookThe myth of IcarusIf any of the topics in this episode distressed you, please talk to some one!

Anthony holds a lot of weird records. But the most interesting to me is the record for the biggest span between winning golds. SIXTEEN YEARS. But first, let's start from the beginning. Anthony Ervin always had a gift for swimming. He had the talent. He had the coaching. And he had the success from an early age. But there was something else looming. Tourette's. I asked him how it happened. "What was the first things you noticed about yourself when you developed Tourette's?" "It was debilitating," he said. "I felt a lot of nervous energy running through the body and that energy needs to find an exit." It escaped through his eyes, his jaw, his neck. "It took a long time cause originally you want to fight this. You want to imprison this energy just to make it stop. But my eventual tactic for it was to take that energy and move it through my entire body. Specifically to move it into my swimming," Anthony said. He used it as a weapon. He turned a negative into a positive. And it ultimately led to success in swimming. He first went to the Olympics when he was only nineteen. He won gold. But he wasn't ready for the mantel of responsibility that came with winning. "I quickly fell off the mountain," Anthony said. He battled with depression and addiction. He dropped out of college. He stopped competing. He self-medicated. And he kept this secret inside. He forgot all about his athletic success. I really wanted to understand why. What is the catalyst for a comeback?

The ‘Just Stand Up’ award goes to Khaled Beydoun for his look at how Kaepernick is being dealt with in the sewers of sports radio. Finally, we answer a phone message from listener Ronnie that asked the Edge of Sports hotline why we speak about athletic resistance at all.Speak your mind by calling (401) 236-3343 (EDGE.)

In the run-up to Brazil’s year of mega-events, Theresa Williamson made her website RioOnWatch.org into an essential independent news source. In our final Olympics podcast, Theresa Williamson joins me for a wide-ranging and insightful talk that you will not find on any other show. We’ll also stop by a party at the oft-discussed Vila Autódromo, site of a high-profile battle for over residents rights that is just a stone’s throw away from Olympic Park. My ‘Choice Words’ are about the stalwart Brazilian teachers who went on strike in Rio, and the ‘Just Stand Up’ award goes to Anthony Ervin, 35-year-old gold medalist and author of: “Chasing Water: Elegy of an Olympian.” Special thanks to our youngest guest, nine-year-old Kay, who summed up the Olympic effect on Rio so well: “It means so many things, and most of them aren’t good.”Edge of Sports Hotline: (401) 236-3343 (EDGE).

U.S. Olympian swimmer Anthony Ervin sheds light on what the cost of mastery was like for him.
U.S. Olympian swimmer Anthony Ervin explains why it’s never too late to revisit a previous passion or learn a new skill.
Anthony Ervin is a U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist, former world record holder in the 50 freestyle, and former World Champion in the 50 and 100 freestyle. In This Episode: -His relationships with others and the water -Family structure growing up and why he wanted to stand out as the middle child -Suffering from turrets and struggling to control his own body -Channeling his anxiety into swimming -What a good coach means to him -Winning a gold medal at 19 and not being ready for the spotlight -How he saw himself vs. the way the media portrayed him -Drugs and alcohol impacting his ability to perform -Expecting to win his first Gold medal in the relay and letting down his teammates -Approaching competition with an optimistic vs. pessimistic mindset -How he became free of past failure -The cost of his success -His contribution to the sport of swimming
“I've always felt the story of my life has been about being normal but on the fringes of abnormality, and it's the fringes that separate my history from the rest.”Anthony ErvinImagine winning an Olympic gold medal in swimming at age 19 at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. A feat never-before achieved by a swimmer of African-American descent, the frenzied media swarms. The only problem? You’re only half-black. You definitely don’t look black. And you know nothing about what it’s like to be part of the black experience.The unrelenting crush of public expectation to fulfill a role at odds with your private sense of self becomes so intense, you retreat from your Olympic experience not with any lasting sense of happiness, satisfaction and pride, but rather a numb confusion.This isn’t anything like I thought it would be…Over time, the confusion metastasizes into disillusionment. And it’s not long before depression sets in.Lost and lacking the tools to cope, life begins to pivot away from the dreaded black line at the bottom of the pool and towards a dreadlocked blur of rock ‘n roll, boozy, drug-fueled binges, rampant womanizing, cigarette haze, and death-defying motorcycle crashes.Nonetheless, over the next three years you continue to do the one thing you know how to do: swim. Not only do you continue to win, in 2001 you’re crowned the world champion in two events. But these results only magnify what is quickly becoming a profound crisis of identity.Who am I? Why am I doing this? What does it all mean?The answers continue to elude you until you find yourself so despondent, so desperate for relief, that you down a handful of tranquilizers. But the suicide attempt fails, fueling a sense of invincibility that only hastens the onset of an even more profound darkness.So, at the young age of 22, at the peak of his abilities, Anthony Ervin does what he has to — he walks away from the thing he used to love. The thing that gave him everything. The thing that made him a star. The thing that betrayed it’s promise of making him whole.In a Hail Mary attempt to discover and re-create his life, Anthony travels the world. He meditates at a Buddhist temple. He studies philosophy with a Sufi mystic. He reclaims his body with tattoos. He enrolls in graduate school but spends summers in Brooklyn, where he immerses himself in books, writes poetry, and even occasionally cross-dresses at parties.The denouement? Hawking his Olympic gold medal on eBay and donating the proceeds to the UNICEF tsunami relief fund.The only thing Anthony Ervin didn’t do during this time? Swim.Not one stroke.* * *The next eight years marked a complete divorce from anything and everything swimming. In fact, not one of Anthony’s new friends during this time had any idea he was even an athlete, let alone an Olympic champion. He was just another tattooed, guitar-playing Brooklynite seeking answers to the Universe in music, meditation, books and partying.But with funds dwindling, Anthony offhandedly takes a gig teaching New York kids how to swim. The experience of service begins to erode his jaded shell and ignites an unexpected spark of appreciation for his former life. A new sense of self worth begins to emerge, informing the why in Anthony’s quest for spiritual self-actualization. Suddenly, love for the sport he so thoroughly placed in his rearview begins to rekindle.In 2011, Anthony returns to the water. And almost overnight, the impossible occurs.Twelve years after Sydney, Anthony qualifies for the 2012 London Olympics — his second U.S. Olympic team. Despite his 31 years of age (ancient in the world of swi... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Anthony Ervin är en av de mest talangfulla simmarna någonsin, han vann OS-guld i Sydney år 2000, sen började han leva ett hårt liv fyllt med droger, alkohol och missbruk av många slag. Han lyckades trots detta vinna dubbla VM-guld 2001 (där Lasse Frölander tog brons) men sedan slutade han simma och gick en helt annan väg. Han auktionerade bort sin OS-medalj för att ge pengarna till välgörenhet, han lämnade simningen helt under många år och levde ett hårt liv där han gick så långt att han försökte ta livet av sig själv och annat riktigt dumt. Sedan bestämde han sig (klokt nog) för att börja simma igen för att klara av att hålla sig borta från drogerna - han kom överraskande och otroligt nog med till OS i London, och försöker nu kvala in till OS i Rio. Anthony har precis nyligen släppt en bok om sitt annorlunda liv och i podcasten pratar vi simning, bok, vilka val man har och vilka råd han har till yngre simmare och andra som har demoner de fightas med.
