Katie Ledecky, Caeleb Dressel and Summer McIntosh are among the athletes who will compete in the Pro Swim Series 2024

Legendary swimmer Katie Ledecky will be competing at the first stop of the TYR Pro Swim Series 2024 in Knoxville. In 2023, Ledecky clinched three gold medals at the 2023 USA Swimming Championships in the women's 400m, 800m and 1500m freestyle events, and a silver medal in the 200m freestyle.

Ledecky was sensational at the 2023 World Aquatics Championships in Fukuoka, Japan, winning two gold medals in the women's 800m and 1500m freestyle. She also won two silver medals in the 400 m freestyle and 4 × 200 m freestyle events. With her 16th individual gold, Katie Ledecky surpassed the record of Michael Phelps for most individual gold medals at the World Championships.

Besides Katie Ledecky, the event will also feature the seven-time Olympic gold medalist Caeleb Dressel, and Summer McIntosh. Dressel won his first title since returning to competitions by clinching the men's 100m butterfly title at the U.S. Open Championships in Greensboro, North Carolina. At the same event, Canadian swimming sensation McIntosh defeated Ledecky to claim the 400m freestyle event.

Apart from these swimmers, Ryan Murphy, Kate Douglass, Bobby Finke, Nic Fink, and Maggie MacNeil are among the few athletes to watch out for at the Pro Swim Series 2024 in Knoxville.
