Hailing from Green Cove Springs, Florida, Caeleb Dressel was born on August 16, 1996. He is the third of four children, with all of them being competitive swimmers along with their father. Dressel was married last year in 2021 to his long-time girlfriend, Meghan, who is a child counselor in Florida.

In 2012, the 15-year-old was the youngest swimmer for the Rio Olympic trials but failed to qualify for the event. However, the very next year at the 2013 World Junior Championships, he won six medals, including one gold.

He eventually went on to win his first Olympic gold at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Post the Rio Games, there was no stopping Dressel.

He won seven gold medals and set several American records at the 2017 World Aquatics Championships. FINA named him Athlete of the Meet, an achievement he defended at the 2019 World Aquatics Championships as well, where he won six gold medals.

The Tokyo Olympics then went on to become the biggest highlight of his career. Fans witnessed the next Michael Phelps in American and world history.

Further, at the very recent 2022 World Championships, Dressel won two gold medals but retired on the fourth day, citing health problems. He will undoubtedly be America's medal hope at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where fans will be keen to see what Dressel brings to the table.
