GoKawiilOlympic swimmer Ariarne Titmus says retirement prompted rethink of 'win or lose' mindset
Ariarne Titmus, who won eight Olympic medals before retiring from swimming last year at 25, says she is reassessing the all-or-nothing mentality that drove her competitive career. The 26-year-old Australian told The Guardian she had viewed many aspects of life in black-and-white terms, and that a 2023 surgery to remove an ovarian growth prompted her to reconsider her priorities beyond the pool.
