Janet Beth Evans
Janet Beth Evans was destined to do great things and was able to compete against her unorthodox swimming style from the beginning. This vast’ windmill ‘ style helped her to be a champion, although she was short for a swimmer. In the 1988 Olympics and the 1992 Games, Evans won two gold medals, strengthening her position in American swimming by defeating bigger competitors, who some have found themselves using illegal performance enhancers. Evans has since helped bring the Olympics back to the US, as the 2028 Games in Los Angeles will be held.
