Mack Horton scaled the mountain across his decade at the very top of international swimming, from Olympic Gold to an unwavering stance on clean competition in sport.
Born and raised in Melbourne, Mack – who remains the only male swimmer from the state of Victoria to win an individual Olympic gold medal in Games history – began competitive swimming at the age of 10 after successfully overcoming his fear of the water.
In the pool, Mack amassed six gold medals across Olympic, World and Commonwealth Games in a 17-year career, highlighted by his win in the 400m Freestyle at the Rio Games in 2016.
Mack is also remembered for his resolute advocacy for clean sport, having refused to shake Sun Yang’s hand or stand on the winners’ podium at the 2019 World Aquatics Championships
Mack’s tireless work has left an indelible mark on world swimming – a World, Commonwealth and Olympic champion he is renowned for his integrity, values, and courage to stand up for what he believes in.
