James Guy Swimmer

James Guy showed his real potential in Kazan in 2015 by winning individual gold and silver and helping the 4x200m Freestyle relay team to the top of the podium. 

Guy (England) had a hugely successful 2015 season, claiming himself two British titles at the London Aquatics Centre in the 200m and 400m free event, before going on to land himself two world titles in the 200m free and the 4x200 free relay.

In 2014, Guy laid down a signal of intent with a hat-trick of golds at the British Swimming Championships, taking the touch in the 200m Free, 400m Free and 200m Fly, and breaking the British record in the 400m Free.

He won his first senior international medal later in the season, lowering the British record again to claim 400m Freestyle bronze for England on his Commonwealth debut at Glasgow 2014.

2013 was the year that saw Guy make his mark among the senior ranks of British Swimming when he made it on to the podium at the British Champs sealing himself bronze in both the 200m and 400m free events. He followed that up with double gold (200m Freestyle, 4x200m Freestyle) at his second European Junior Championships in Poznan, then made his senior international debut at the World Championships in Barcelona, lowering his British Age Group record (17 yrs) to finish fifth in the 400m Freestyle, then setting another British Age Group record (17 yrs) as the lead-off in the 4x200m Freestyle Relay as the British quartet finished seventh.

James Guy made a positive international debut at the 2012 European Junior Championships in Antwerp, Belgium, to taking bronze in the 400m free.
