Ryan Murphy qualified for the Paris Olympics after delivering stellar performances and winning two finals at the US Swimming Olympic Trials. A few days after the triumph, he shared a glimpse of Team USA's official kit for the Summer Games.

The 28-year-old created history as he became the first American to qualify for the 100m and 200m backstroke events at three consecutive Olympic Games. Murphy clocked 52.22s in the 100m backstroke event at the trials to qualify for the 2024 Summer Games.

Along with this, he also added the 200m backstroke event to his upcoming Olympic schedule by clocking 1:54.33, the fastest time of the year in the event. Ryan Murphy has competed in the 100m and 200m backstroke events at two Olympics, the 2016 Rio de Janeiro and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. He is once again poised to represent the US in the same events for the third time.

A few days after qualifying for the Paris Olympics, Murphy shared the official kit of Team USA in his Instagram story. The kit featured various USA x TYR items, including shoes, bags, trolly bags, helmets, sunglasses, hoodies, hats, and some more additions. He gave a glimpse of his own, Blake Pieroni's, and Josh Matheny's kits.
