Ariarne Titmus Takes Reporter Function with Seven News for Upcoming Commonwealth Games

Continuing her development of latest publicity since her retirement from swimming, Australian Olympic Champion Ariarne Titmus will probably be across the pool deck at this 12 months’s Commonwealth Games, having taken a job with Australia’s Channel Seven as a combined zone reporter, conducting post-race interviews with athletes.

“It’s going to be great to be on [the] pool deck. It’s actually my first international meet where I’ll be on [the] pool deck cheering, but also speaking to the athletes after their races. So I’m really looking forward to it.” Titmus mentioned in an interview with Seven News. “I said to a few of the guys, there’s no worse looking person than a swimmer post-race, goggle marks, wet hair, puffing. And now I’m on the other side, so I’m feeling good about that.”

Titmus trades the goggles and medals for a chance to share the tales of her fellow athletes, and he or she talked about that she is “passionate about having this role.”

“I’m really content in my life, and I’m actually feeling quite passionate about having this role, allowing the athletes to tell their stories.” Titmus mentioned. “They’re going to see a familiar face, but more than anything, I’m a swimming fan. And so I feel really pumped that I’m going to be right there on pool deck getting to cheer our Aussies on.”

Titmus is a seven-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist, with a embellished profession that features 4 Olympic Golds and 6 world championship titles.

“During my career, I had so much respect for the mixed zone reporters that we regularly met with post-race, including Nathan Templeton, Giaan Rooney and so many more. To have the opportunity to follow in their footsteps for such an important international event is very exciting,” Titmus mentioned in an interview with Seven News. The Commonwealth Games imply a lot to the athletes competing and I can not wait to be on deck to ship extra unbelievable historic moments from the pool, dwell and free on Seven and 7plus Sport.”

Titmus may even be showing on the Australian present SHARK!, the place she is going to face her greatest worry, sharks, in a number of high-pressure and up shut encounters within the shark-filled Bahamian waters.
