Chelsea Mae Hodges OAM (born 27 June 2001) is a retired Australian swimmer.[2] She competed in the women's 100 metre breaststroke at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[3]

Career

[edit]

At the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Hodges was a semi-finalist in the Women's 100 metre breaststroke swimming the ninth fastest time (1:06.60) and just missing the final by 0.01 second.[4]

Hodges later swam the breaststroke leg of the Women's 4 × 100 metre medley relay for the gold medal winning Australian team. Hodges was up against American 100m breaststroke gold medalist Lydia Jacoby and despite being 1.65 seconds slower than Jacoby in the individual event Hodges posted a time of 1:05.57 in the final of the relay which was only 0.54 seconds slower than the American. Hodges' breaststroke leg kept the Australians within striking distance of the Americans and with Emma McKeon narrowing the gap Cate Campbell was able to touch the wall first ahead of American Abbey Weitzeil to win the gold medal for Australia.[5]

In the 2022 Australia Day Honours, Hodges was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia.[6]
