McIntosh is the daughter of Greg McIntosh and former Canadian Olympic team swimmerJill Horstead.[17][18][19] Her older sisterBrooke is a competitivepair skater.[18][20]
McIntosh currently studies and trains inSarasota, Florida.[21]
McIntosh has broken over 50 age group national swimming records.[22] In May 2021, McIntosh swam a 4:05.13 in the 400 metre freestyle, the fastest time ever by a 14-year-old swimmer worldwide.[23]
As part of the 2021 Canadian Olympic swimming trials inToronto, McIntosh won the 200 metre freestyle event over training partnerPenny Oleksiak, with a personal best time of 1:56.19, which also marked the fastest time ever by a 14-year-old swimmer worldwide.[24] This qualified her for the2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. McIntosh followed this up with a win in the 800 metre freestyle event, in another personal best time of 8:29.49. She was the youngest person named to theCanadian Olympic team.[9][25][26][27]
In her first event, McIntosh finished fourth in the400 metre freestyle, breaking the Canadian national record with a time of 4:02.42.[10] She advanced to the semifinals of thewomen's 200m freestyle, but placed ninth there and thus missed the final. She was part of the Canadian team for the4 × 200 metre relay, along with Oleksiak,Rebecca Smith andKayla Sanchez. They set a new Canadian record in the event final, placing fourth.[28] McIntosh's last event was the800 metre freestyle, where she placed eleventh and thus did not advance to the final.[29]
Following the Olympics, McIntosh made her debut on theInternational Swimming League as part of theToronto Titans.[30]

McIntosh was part of the Canadian team for the2021 World Swimming Championships, and won a silver medal as part of the4×100 metre medley relay, where she swam in the preliminaries for Canada as the team finished in second in the final. She then helped the Canadian team in the4×200 metre freestyle relay, swimming the first leg as Canada won gold. McIntosh won her first individual medal of the competition when she won the silver in the400 metre freestyle race. She was third at the halfway mark but passedSiobhán Haughey and held on to the second position, finishing behindLi Bingjie.[31] McIntosh had set aCanadian record in the800 metre qualifying, but she withdrew from the event to focus on the 400 and women's relay events.[32][33]
On March 4, 2022, McIntosh swam the 400 metre individual medley at a preparatory event for the Canadian swimming trials, recording a time of 4:29.12. This was both a national andCommonwealth record, and the third-fastest of all time, as well as the fastest time recorded by any swimmer sinceKatinka Hosszú's winning time at the2016 Summer Olympics.[34] At the national swimming trials, McIntosh won titles in the 200 metre and 400 metre freestyle, the 200 metre butterfly, and the 400 metre individual medley, before scratching from the 800 metre freestyle.[35]

She finished second in the final, taking the silver medal with a new personal best andnational record time of 3:59.39. She was only the fourth woman in history to record a time of under four minutes.[36] McIntosh set another world junior record in the semi-final of the200 metre butterfly with a 2:05.79 time, exceeding her own as-yet-unratified record from the Canadian swimming trials.[37] She broke the record again the following day, June 22, in the event final, claiming her first World title, the first medal of any colour for Canada in the event.[12] She was the first 15-year-old to win a World title since China'sYe Shiwen in2011, and the youngest Canadian world champion in history, surpassing 18-year-oldVictor Davis in1982.[13][38] Later in that same session she participated in the event final of the4 × 200 metre freestyle relay, breaking another junior world record with a 1:54.79 opening leg, the second-fastest of any woman in the event behindKatie Ledecky of the United States. The Canadian team won the bronze medal.[12] In her final event, the400 metre individual medley, McIntosh won her second gold medal of the championships, beating AmericanKatie Grimes by 0.63 seconds. She became the first Canadian swimmer to win two gold medals at a single World Championships, and set a new record for the most medals won by a Canadian at a single World Championships (4), which would be tied later that same day byPenny Oleksiak andKayla Sanchez.[11] As well, she was the youngest winner sinceTracy Caulkins in1978. McIntosh called the results "a dream come true", and praised Grimes, noting "she is around my age and she's a really tough competitor. So I'm looking forward to racing her and keep pushing myself."[39]

A month later, McIntosh was part of herfirst Commonwealth Games team, for the2022 edition inBirmingham, England. She opted not to contest the 200 metre butterfly there, citing the need to focus on other events.[40] Heavily favoured in the400 m medley, she won gold on the first day of the competition schedule, improving her world junior, Commonwealth, and national records to 4:29.01. She finished 7.77 seconds ahead of silver medallistKiah Melverton, and was the first Canadian gold medallist of the Games.[41] McIntosh was then given the novel opportunity to participate in Canada's4 × 100 metre freestyle relay team, with mainstay members like Oleksiak, Sanchez andTaylor Ruck absent, winning a bronze medal. She noted that she "didn't really know what to expect, the 100 free is not my main event so I just tried to put a good time down to set it up for the rest of the girls."[42] The next day she took her more customary place on the4 × 200 metre freestyle relay team, swimming the leadoff leg and helping take the silver medal.[43] Of this, she said she was "very proud."[44] On the fourth day, she competed in the200 metre individual medley, a much more uncommon event for her than the 400 metre individual medley. McIntosh won the gold medal, defeating reigning World silver medallistKaylee McKeown of Australia and setting a new world junior record. McIntosh noted that "the 200 IM is more of a sprinting event for me", adding "the only pressure I feel is what I put on myself. The only thing that matters is my expectations."[45] With the result, McIntosh recorded one of the top four results of 2022 in five different events.[46] On the final day of the swimming competitions, McIntosh won two more silver medals, finishing behindAriarne Titmus in the400 metre freestyle while lowering her own national record and then swimming the freestyle leg of the4 × 100 metre medley relay, typically performed for the Canadian team by the absent Oleksiak.[47][48]
Following the conclusion of the Commonwealth Games,Swimming World magazine, assessing her "vast talent on display at two championship-level events", opined "it's not hype and bluster anymore. Based purely on results from this year, not career medal totals or performance over a long stretch of time, McIntosh is the third-best female swimmer in the world."[47]
On October 28, at the2022 FINA Swimming World Cup inToronto, and conducted in short course metres, McIntosh set a new world junior record,World Cup record, Americas record, and Canadian record in the 400 metre freestyle on day one, finishing in a time of 3:52.80 in the final to win the gold medal.[49][50] The following day, she won the gold medal in the 400 metre individual medley with a world junior record and Canadian record time of 4:21.49.[51][52] She and fellow CanadiansSydney Pickrem andBailey Andison won all the medals in the event.[52] Approximately 50 minutes later, she placed eighth in the 100 metre backstroke with a time of 58.84 seconds.[53] The following, and final, day, she won a pair of bronze medals, the first in the 200 metre backstroke with a personal best time of 2:02.85 and the second in the 200 metre individual medley with a personal best time of 2:06.57.[54][55]
The next, and final, stop of the World Cup circuit, McIntosh won the gold medal in the 200 metre butterfly on November 3, finishing in a personal best time of 2:03.40, which was the only time in the final faster than 2:04.00.[56] Day two, she finished in a personal best time of 1:52.63 in the 200 metre freestyle final to place fifth.[57] On the third and final day, she dropped 6.25 seconds from her personal best time in the 800 metre freestyle to win the silver medal with a Canadian record time of 8:07.12.[58]
The following month, at the2022 U.S. Open Swimming Championships, McIntosh won the gold medal in the 400 metre individual medley with aChampionships record, world junior record, andUS Open record time of 4:28.61.[59][60] The following day, she won the silver medal in the 200 metre backstroke with a personal best time of 2:07.15, which was 1.87 seconds behind gold medallistRegan Smith of the United States.[61][62] Earlier in the meet, on day two, she won the silver medal in the 400 metre freestyle.[62]
McIntosh drew headlines early in 2023 with performances at the 2023 Pro Swim Series event inFort Lauderdale, first lowering her national and world junior records in the 200 metre butterfly.[63] Days later in the 200 metre freestyle event, she brokeTaylor Ruck's national record and lowered her prior world junior record with a time of 1:54.13, and won the event overKatie Ledecky. This was the first time Ledecky had lost a domestic final in the 200 metre distance or higher since 2014. McIntosh remarked that "I'm really happy with that swim but it hurts really bad."[64] She then brokeSydney Pickrem's national record in the 200 metre individual medley.[65]
At the national swim trials at the end of March at theToronto Pan Am Sports Centre, McIntosh set her firstworld record, winning the 400 metre freestyle event with a time of 3:56.08 seconds and surpassingAriarne Titmus's prior time of 3:56.40. Speaking afterward, she said that "going into tonight, I didn't think the world record was a possibility, but you never know."[66][14] Days later, McIntosh won the 400 metre medley with a time of 4:25.87, breaking the world record thatKatinka Hosszú had set at the2016 Summer Olympics. She became the first swimmer in history to hold both the 400m freestyle and 400m individual medley long course world records at the same time.[3] McIntosh also improved her own world junior records in three other events at the meet.[67]

McIntosh's first event of the2023 World Aquatics Championships was a highly-anticipated400 metre freestyle, touted as a three-way contest between her, Titmus and Ledecky.[68] She came third in the heats, but in the final she finished narrowly in fourth place, being overtaken for bronze in the final stretch by New ZealanderErika Fairweather. McIntosh called it a "learning experience." Later the same session she joined the Canadian team in the final of the4×100 metre freestyle relay; with Oleksiak absent and Ruck recovering from a hand injury, the team finished seventh.[69] McIntosh competed in the200m freestyle at the World Championships for the first time, finishing second in the semi-finals, 0.03 back of Titmus and 0.24 ahead ofMollie O'Callaghan.[70] She came third in the event final, out touching reigning Olympic silver medallistSiobhan Haughey for the bronze.[71] On July 27, McIntosh successfully defended her title in the200m butterfly and improved on her world junior record in the event, claiming that she "was just trying to have as much fun as possible and race as hard as I could."[72] She became only the second Canadian to win three World titles, afterKylie Masse, as well as the second to defend a World title, again after Masse.[73] Later in the day she joined the Canadian team in the final of the4×200 metre freestyle relay. The team, depleted of some of its most important members from years prior, finished in fifth, but McIntosh's 1:53.97 was the second-fastest in the event, behind Titmus, and the ninth-fastest of all time to that point.[74] After finishing second in her heat for the400m medley, McIntosh defended her title, winning inchampionship record time (4:27.11) and a margin of 4.30 seconds over repeat silver medallistKatie Grimes. In so doing, she broke her tie with Masse for sole possession of the record for Canadian World Aquatics titles.[75] Later in the same session, she swam the freestyle leg of the4×100 m medley relay, helping the team to a bronze medal. Her 53.48 time was an improvement by almost a second and a half over her performance in the earlier freestyle relay.[75][76]
In her final major competition of the year, the2023 U.S. Open Swimming Championships, McIntosh won the gold medal in the 400m freestyle race, defeating Ledecky and breaking the latter's championship record with a time of 3:59.42.[77] She went on to defend her gold medal in the 400m individual medley, defeating Israeli silver medallistAnastasia Gorbenko by almost eight seconds.[78]
McIntosh was a finalist in voting for theNorthern Star Award, given to the Canadian athlete of the year, and received theBobbie Rosenfeld Award asthe Canadian Press' choice for Canadian female athlete of the year.[79][80]
As with most of the Canadian team's top swimmers, McIntosh opted not to attend the2024 World Aquatics Championships inDoha, citing its proximity to the2024 Summer Olympics.[81] She drew headlines in early February when she defeatedKatie Ledecky at a sectional event inOrlando, becoming the first person to outpace Ledecky in the 800 metre distance since 2010. Her 8:11.39 time broke a ten-year-old national record previously set byBrittany MacLean at the2014 Pan Pacific Swimming Championships.[82][83]
At the inaugural edition of the Canadian Swimming Open in April, McIntosh won the 200m freestyle with a world-leading time of 1:54.21. She came in second in the 100m backstroke final later in the same session, finishing just behindMaggie Mac Neil.[84] She would go on to win the 100m freestyle, 100m butterfly, and 200m individual medley.[85]
McIntosh was the centre of attention at Canada's Olympic swimming trials, which featured audiences, unlike in the pandemic-afflicted 2021 events.[86] On the first day, she won the 400m freestyle with a world-leading time that she nevertheless said she was "definitely not happy with."[87] She then won the 200m freestyle on the second day.[88] McIntosh drew headlines on the fourth day in the 400m individual medley, where she broke her own world record with a 4:24.38, an improvement of a second and a half.[89] She finished more than fourteen seconds ahead of second-placeElla Jansen.[90] In her fourth event of the trials, the 200m butterfly, she posted a world-leading time of 2:04.33.[91] On the final day of the trials, McIntosh won the 200m individual medley, and was formally named tothe Canadian Olympic team.[92]

In her first race of the Paris Olympics, McIntosh entered the400 m freestyle, which was expected to be a contest between herself,Ariarne Titmus, and Ledecky. She won the silver medal, finishing 0.88 seconds behind Titmus but more than two seconds clear of Ledecky and the rest of the field. This was her first Olympic medal, and the first Canadian medal in Paris. Later in the same session McIntosh participated in the final of the4 × 100 m freestyle relay, where the Canadian team finished fourth.[93] She then entered the400m individual medley as the heavy favourite. After coming third in the heats, she won the gold medal, finishing more than five seconds ahead of American silver medallistKatie Grimes to take her first Olympic title.[94]
Competing next in the200m butterfly, forty years after her mother's appearance in the same event in1984, McIntosh won the gold medal and set a newOlympic record time of 2:03.03.[95][96] This was the second-fastest time in the history of the women's 200m butterfly, and the fastest of thetextile era.[5] McIntosh became the first Canadian woman to win two individual gold medals at a Summer Olympics, the first Canadian to win two gold medals at a Summer Olympics since sprinterDonovan Bailey in1996, and the first Canadian swimmer to win three individual medals at a single Olympics.[96][97] In the same session she joined the Canadian team in the final of the4×200 m freestyle relay, where they finished fourth, a result she said she was "pretty disappointed with."[95] McIntosh's next race, the200m individual medley, drew media attention as a contest for featuring her and two other individual Olympic gold medallists, America'sKate Douglass and AustralianKaylee McKeown.[98] This was only the second time that she had appeared in the 200 metre medley at an international competition, after the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Considered one of the favourites, she won the title with an Olympic record time of 2:06.56. She became the first Canadian to win three gold medals at a single Summer Olympics, and with four total medals she tied teammatePenny Oleksiak for the most Canadian medals in a single Olympics.[15][99]
McIntosh's final swim of the Paris Olympics was as part of the Canadian team in the4 × 100 m medley relay, having replaced Oleksiak as the anchor for the event final. For the third time, the Canadians finished fourth, denying McIntosh's chance to tieCindy Klassen's record for the most medals won by a Canadian Olympian in a single Olympics.[100] Following the end of the Olympic swimming competitions, she returned to Canada to vacation at her family'sMuskoka Lakes cottage, but travelled back to Paris a few days later upon being named Canada's co-flag bearer at theclosing ceremony, alongsidehammer throw championEthan Katzberg.[101]

She took the silver medal and set a national and world junior record time of 1:59.96.[104] McIntosh expressed disappointment with the result, but added that it was "a great motivator the next time I'm training and I'm hurting and I just remember what it's like to get silver, so it keeps me pushing forward."[105] At the conclusion of the meet,World Aquatics named herfemale swimmer of the year.[106]
In addition to theNorthern Star Award andWorld Aquatics athlete of the year, McIntosh received her second consecutiveBobbie Rosenfeld Award as theCanadian Press's choice for female athlete of the year, winning 52 of 53 votes cast for the distinction.[107] She was named to theTime100 Next list, with a tribute written byPrime MinisterJustin Trudeau, who described her as "a superstar at age 18 and still warming up."[108]Forbes included McIntosh in their year-end30 Under 30 list.[109]
In February, McIntosh raced in the 800m freestyle at the Southern Zone Sectionals meet, setting a new national record time of 8:09.86. This was the tenth-fastest time in history, the nine times ahead of hers all having been set byKatie Ledecky.[110] At the end of the month, she announced that this would be her final season training inSarasota underBrent Arckey, and that she was contemplating working withBob Bowman in the future. As well, she stated she would be looking to add a fifth individual event to her program for the2025 World Aquatics Championships.[111] On May 28, McIntosh confirmed that she would move to train under Bowman at theUniversity of Texas at Austin in August of that year.[112]
On June 7, McIntosh regained the world record in the women's 400m freestyle event at the Canadian swimming trials with a time of 3:54.18.[113][4] Then, on June 8, she improved her national record in the 800m freestyle from an 8:09.86 to a 8:05.07.

On the opening day of the swimming competitions at the2025 World Aquatics Championships inSingapore, McIntosh raced in two heats, a semi-final, and won the gold medal in the400m freestyle, her first in that event. With a time of 3:56.26, she finished nearly two seconds clear of silver medalistLi Bingjie. In what had been anticipated as a race between McIntosh and Ledecky, the latter finished third.[116] On the second day, she swam the final of the200m individual medley, her first appearance in the event at the World Aquatics Championships. McIntosh won her second gold medal of the Singapore championships with a time of 2:06.69.[117] This was her tenth World Aquatics Championships medal, surpassingKylie Masse andPenny Oleksiak for the most earned by a Canadian swimmer.[118]
McIntosh entered the200m butterfly as the prohibitive favourite for the gold medal, with speculation focused on whether she would break the world record of 2:01.81, set in 2009 byLiu Zige using a "supersuit" that would be prohibited from World Aquatics competition three months after. As a result of this, Liu's record became the longest-standing record in women's competitive swimming.[119] McIntosh won with a time of 2:01.99, three seconds ahead of silver medalistRegan Smith. She was 0.18 seconds short of the world record,[120] but brokeJessicah Schipper's supersuit era championship record from2009.[121] McIntosh faulted herself, saying "that last 15 metres I took an extra breath and I should've had my head down," but vowed "this is definitely going to fuel me for next season," adding: "If there's one world record that I wanted to break since the start of my career it's this one."[120]
Continuing her quest to win five individual gold medals, McIntosh entered the800m freestyle, an event she had not contested at an international championship since 2021.[122] McIntosh held the lead at the 700-metre mark, but was passed by both Ledecky andLani Pallister over the closing stretch, winning the bronze medal.[123] She called the race "not even close to what I wanted time-wise, place-wise, how I executed the race."[122] On the final day of the championship, she won gold in the400m individual medley, and raced the butterfly leg for the Canadian team in the4×100m medley relay, finishing fifth. With four gold medals and a bronze medal, she became only the third swimmer to take five individual medals at a World Aquatics Championship, afterMichael Phelps andSarah Sjöström.[124] McIntosh was named Female Swimmer of the Meet by World Aquatics.[125]
McIntosh entered the2025 World Aquatics Swimming World Cup in October, but pulled out of theCarmel stop because of illness.[126] She officially canceled her participation in the upcoming stops of the Swimming World Cup inWestmont, Illinois, and her hometown of Toronto, which could have marked her international debut where she trained with Bob Bowman.[citation needed]
After her decision to withdraw from the Swimming World Cup, McIntosh is anticipated to participate in that year'sU.S. Open inAustin, Texas.[127]
