They say ‘the game slows down’ for the best athletes in sport. Maybe that’s why Ryan Murphy always seems to bring out his best swims in the biggest moments, which have made him one of the best swimmers in the world over the last decade.
Team USA’s stalwart backstroke ace, Ryan Murphy became a superstar in Rio where he swept gold medals in the backstrokes and broke the 100m World Record leading off Team USA’s gold medal winning relay, helping to deliver Michael Phelps his final Olympic gold medal. Since then, the young star has become the elder statesman, a perennial captain of the US squad and always adding to his trophy case with more medals collected this summer in Paris. But as time goes by, life evolves, and so it has for Ryan Murphy.
A soon to be dad, Ryan joins us for a chat during a period where his other life pursuits are taking priority, although he is still in touch with the water a few times a week.
